Lowes on 9 mile has lots of bags, in building materials where concrete and sand are, far right wall. 45 cents a piece
Where to get bags?
Steve – I’ve always bought them at Lowes. If you enter the store near the lumber area, they usually have them on a pallet nearby.
Where can you get sandbags? Not seeing on box store websites.
