Though I'm sitting over 80 lbs of lump in inventory right now, I just couldn't pass up buying a few more bags today. I was in Wal-Mart this morning when I noticed: a) that Wal-Mart again stocks lump other than Kingsford; b) Royal Oak lump was only $3.27 per 10 pound bag. So, I bought a couple even though I probably won't need 'em for another month or two or three.
However, when I got to the register they rang up at $5.27 per bag. They did a price check. I got the $3.27 price, but they were going to make a new price tag. Now, they noted that's rare because the tags were said to be generated by a system. So, most likely, other stores will have the same situation. If I were you, I'd go check my Wal-Mart and get a couple cart fulls if it says $3.27. As always, YMMV.
At $3.27/10 lb that's actually about $2 less per 40 pounds than I can buy my 40 lb bags of Nature Glow from the restaurant wholesale place.
