jrm Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) They sent me an E-mail "special sale" notification on No Plow 2# 9.96 buy 2 bags and get third free...6# 29.88....Well you go to regular site and there they are selling No Plow in 9# bags for...39.98 Always no matter how trusted the company....do the research on "great deals" One of us is not doing the math right. 2# bag at 9.96 each. Buy 2 (4# total for $19.92) get 1 (another 2# free). That's 6# for $19.92 - cost = $3.32/lb The 9# bag on the regular site is $39.98 for 9# - cost = $4.44/lb So the "special sale" is giving you a much better price (25% less) than the 9# bag on the website. Am I misunderstanding? BTW - what is "no plow?" Edited August 9, 2014 by jrm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
