Flyer in today's fish wrapper has a teaser which you supposedly can take a peek at homedepot.com to see the price. Says it is scheduled for Sat, May 20. So far I haven't been able to peek so it appears you can't check what the price will be until then.

    I saw that too, but haven't been able to check out the price. 
    Last year it looks like it was $7.88.
    Thanks

    When Walmart quit carrying it I had to go with something else. Good bulk, but lots of rocks. I will look for this at my local Home Depot and stock up.

    Last time they had a sale, it seems like it was a great price.  I did not see it mentioned until like 9 pm that night, but learned you can order online for your local store, pay for it at sale price, and then pick up within a week or 10 days when it is convenient for you to pick up--they have it up front for you

    Looking at it now and this time the ad says "store only" so not sure if the online way will work.

    Home Depot has been selling RO for only $9.97 a bag all year instead of $13 last year.

    I don't really need any more at the moment and if the price only drops down to last years Memorial Day price of $7.88 I won't be fighting the normal Saturday crowd but if they were to drop it to $5 or $6 a bag I might head out and pick up a few.

    Last time it was "online" but it was pick up in store from in stock merchandise, so it was not a typical online order.  A lot of the brick and mortar are doing this--they have locked cages up front where they keep everything that is prepaid like this.  Last time it was all loaded and in the buggy in the cage when I went to pick it up.

    My HD had 'em piled HIGH this last weekend on like 3 pallets!  I bet they're expecting a rush - made a calendar date to go early on Saturday and check it out!

    That's a great deal...but are you sure you got lump and not briquettes?

    When I search their site for Royal Oak this is all I find:
    https://www.lowes.com/pd/Royal-Oak-15-4-lb-Charcoal-Briquettes/1000175405

    Royal Oak 154-lb Charcoal Briquettes

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    It's a lengthy drive to Homely Despot for me. It would have to be an excellent price for me to drive past the Rockwood 1/4 mile down from my house and then drive through 20 red lights each way and an 8 mile interstate leg to boot.

    I'll have to check Saturday too.  I just picked up 8 bags last night (in addition to the diablo I got from Costco).  I wouldn't mind stocking up.

    I may be a bad person for mentioning this but I have to imagine someone might be able to pull a price match @ Home Depot for some lump.

    Last year at this time I stocked up - as I recall I bought 19 bags.  The only downside was that I then had to burn 19 bags of royal oak.  

    At some point I realized the difference per cook is almost zero, when the efficiency of our eggs is factored in.  I've since returned all the royal oak, and happily burn only Rockwood.
