    About $10 each around here at Home Depot. I put 2 in the cabin and 2 in the cockpit.

    Do they have BJ’s there? That where we get ours typically and they offer coupons often.
    No BJ's in Pittsburgh.
    What a bummer... I live in Pittsburgh and that is not necessarily my experience  >:)

    You can get the buckets and then in subsequent years buy the refill bags  and reuse the buckets- much less expensive. If you are really a cheapie, the non-salt ice melt for sidewalk clearing is the same stuff as Damp-Rid... It comes in big bags for a few bucks each.

    Yeah, Damp Rid is essentially Calcium Chloride. Widely used as a dust suppressor on gravel roads and as a Sodium Chloride substitute for ice melting as mentioned.
    Can be bought in 50 lb bags pretty cheap.......but then what do you do with it? Once the bag is open it'll continue to suck moisture and harden up.
