    Right where I want to be.
    I've noticed these at the local grocery a couple times, but didn't look closely until the last trip in.
    $3.99 each, and they look almost identical to Super Cedars.
    SS have to be less than that, right?
    Dang it, now I can't find the pic I took. I'll blame the phone.
    Didn't happen, I guess.

    Yeah, pretty much what I thought.
    Campers probably use 'em around here.

    Not too expensive, since as a true hoader you are going to need only one for the whole season.:D

    Sounds like a Qwik-E Mart price; I think the SCs come out to about 75 cents if you buy a box. Must be some wealthy campers up your way. ;)

    I think a lot of folks just don't want to mess with prepping kindling but if you've got the right materials, you can start a fire with a match. :)

    I love the super cedars, bought a big case of 100 2 years ago. I use them for the stove without kindling and they light right up. Also love them for fire in the pit outside and to light brush when limbing up trees I dropped. Just 1/4 of one lights a fire very easily.

    I have a cabinet shop next door with a giant sawdust collector, I should go into business. Between the sawdust and the waste oak I should grind it all up and press logs. It pains me to see all the wood go to the landfill, I sort a few huge crates for kindling throughout the year but still....

    Yea theresome copies but if u want more than one sc are cheaper shipped.

    You can cut pieces of fire log off for brush piles. I do it all the time. Dont light as easy but way cheaper.

    That's nuts it would be tossed. Around here it gets sold for horse bedding and what not.
