    Logic says price will continue to rise as value continues to fall from the Dollar. It doesn't spoil...wish I could say the same about my food cache.

    Before the plague, I found I used about 5G that year. I didn't have any big plan or critical mass number to reach, just kept getting a couple here and there. It was just a hunch.
    But like any consumable, it doesn't hurt to have a bit of a supply.

    12+ on the shelf here , I just bought it anytime I saw some sort of a deal on it. Didn't plan on stocking up that much but it just happened.

    Many of the black jugs look the same. Different stickers same black jug, different price.
    Fertilizer is like that. Same fertilizer, same results, $20 more for the Scott’s package.

    Something tells me that is probably not going to happen.

    Home Depot seems to be the cheapest I have seen at 11 a gallon if you buy 4.
    I know you prefer the big blue roof over the orange one so you might have to suck it up and put on your Covid Mask and cheap sunglasses and go shopping.

    I put 10 gallons in my cart, filled in all the info, "hit place order" and immediately got pushed to a Paypal invoice asking for $60 bucks. Maybe I tried to buy too much, not sure.

    Edit: Seems shady to me. So I was curious. If there's a limit to the free shipping, I don't know why that couldn't be done through the site.

    Good to know that others have had ordered from them.

    I tried and it does come up with a paypal invoice but is the amount of the order , It does show up as a womans name and not BMI Karts though.
    Don't want to go any farther since I do not want to actually order any.

    Interesting. My total on the site was 101 something, and the PayPal invoice was 60 and it was Shaw something, or something Shaw.

    That would've put it at $16 a gallon, if it was extra. Not sure, but it's not something I'm gona mess with. Sucks...........that would be a smoking deal, for what I normally pay.
