Oldcastle Playsand

pallidy · 03-18-2005, 10:22 AM

Hello Everyone,
The Home Depot in Fargo, ND has 41 bags of the Carribean Playsand as of las night so if anyone is looking for it you can call 701/282-2078 that is the # right to the store. I did the test this morning with vinnegar and it fizzed. The bag is exactly like the southdown bag but says Oldcastle as the Brand.

That's VERY interesting. Thanks for the heads up. Too bad almost no one lives there.

We do have one member whose business is there but he actually lives in nearby Minnesota.

Sound's like a mis-routed shipment.

But it's a good deal for you - you betcha!

I ended up buying more than I needed (@2.50 per bag) and ended up sanding my driveway with some of it during the last snow storm. Given that you are in Fargo, the dual use strategy might come in handy!

Wow, thought nobody else lived in Fargo, ND. It's nice to know I'm not alone. Thanks for the great tip.

I'm not in Fargo - Pallidy (the origninal poster is). I'm in Baja-Philidelphia (Delaware).
