    Ya that is a good price. What do you like better Maple Leaf or Basques? I just tried Basques for the first time this weekend and so far so good

    Thanks for posting! While Lowes is about a 20 minute drive from me in a busy area, there is a Rona about 5 minutes away. So I went to Rona and they did a price match on the 8kg bags of Maple Leaf.

    Thanks for posting, I have been checking frequently, I am down to half a bag left of Sugar maple and it looks like it is on sale as well. Not as good as the last sale but better than nothing. Good thing I checked the forum today.

    Basques is all sugar maple and Maple Leaf has some birch in it. One is as good as the other but Maple Leaf has bigger pieces if you care about that. They are the two best I've used.

    great price, about same as Nella's but you have to buy 20 bags there!  I vaguely recall if you sign up for their email spam, you get a $10 off coupon code for purchase over $50 online order, not sure if they still do it.  fyi for those in GTA, they opened a new Lowes at Yonge/Steeles.

    basque and maple leaf are both great lump, i give it to maple leaf as it has a better smell in the back yard.

    I took advantage of the $10 bucks off to sign up for the spam in the summer, but that spam is what led me to this sale lol.

    They didn't have any Maple Leaf on the shelf, I have been using Basques for over a year now anyways and love it, so I grabbed what was left on the floor.

    Again, thanks for posting!

    @SkySaw: That's a good lead. I wasn't aware that Rona did price matching. Certainly would be convenient for me, as Lowes is about 40 mins away while there is a Rona within 3 minutes of my place.

    Found email in my spam folder too!  Basques red-n-white bags also discounted by 20%, to 15.99.  They also discounted selected smokers by 20%, I saw Akorn on sale earlier at $209, all sold out now (not that I wanted one).  No discounts on KJ smokers nor KJ lump though ... few months ago they put whole store on sale at 20% off, KJ Jr dropped from $600 to $480, still higher than Costco Roadshow offer.

    Local store had 28 bags, which is about 10 more than I already have on hand. Due to the snow we have had here in Lotus Land, the store was pretty much empty. Thanks for the heads up on the sale!
    BTW, if you order online, my local Lowe's will pull and hold it for you so you don't have to rush over - assume this is the same at all Lowe's.

    When Trump invades Canada to annex as a territory, do you think the massive deforestation (to get to the juicy oil sands) will cause a price drop in maple lump?

    Nope. The price of a 2X4 is going to triple when Trump slaps an import tariff on Canadian softwood, there will be no deforestation. You should stock up. Given the lack of support for pipelines to move bitumen, Alberta (the tar sands owner) should start digging their own canal to tidewater.

    Thanks for the heads up, heading to London tomorrow so I'll stop in and get some.  I only have 1 and a partial bag left and the local crappy tire wants $20 for Royal Oak.

    Well, at least 35% higher.  

    I'm all for pipelines.  Commodities are going to move one way or another, and the pipelines are the safest and most efficient.

    @gerhardk    order online now, 1-day sale ends at midnight (not sure if it's ET or PT). as I said earlier, if you register for their spam mail alert you get $10 off min. $50 online purchase.
    edit: free shipping for store pickup

    Thanks for the info but I guess I did not check the computer before going to bed so did not see this.  Next time.

    not likely since they are coniferous trees which are are really small and sickly because they grow in a swamp that literally oozes oil.
