Those timbers were $1.97 apiece — cheapest borders I could get. The excess will be used as fence posts to repair my deteriorating pasture fence. 25 cents per foot. The clerk at Menard’s told me that they PAY $2.05 ea., but Home Depot was selling them for $1.97 and Menard’s matched them.
Just got back from Menard’s and brought home 8 bags of composted manure for my new beds. While I was looking over their bagged soil amendments I found Pro-Mix! $5.95 per cu. foot. It’s very light weight with a lovely feel to it, so they don’t sell it by weight. How does that price compare with what fan fan found in Canada?
I looked everywhere for Pro Mix a month ago and even checked their website and couldn’t find it anywhere. Here it was right at Menard’s tonight! Diana, do you have a Menard’s near you? You might try a bag for fall seedlings.
We do have a Menard’s. Thanks for the tip on the Pro-Mix. I’ll check it out in the very near future.
Pro Mix was $35.95 for 3.8 cubic feet here in Eureka and I think FanFan said it was 1/3 that price in Canada
My bag of pro-mix was $12.99 for 3 cubic feet.
