noyakfat Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 My local landscaper on Sunny Coast sold me Mary River Sand (very coarse grained, good stuff) and I filled a 70 L tub for just $4.70. It's worth a look at your landscapers place just to see what they have Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
