2 very different markets. Vancouver has several places where you can get a bucket for $30. Here, probably $36 - $38...

Your right actually! I was thinking of the 200 gallon box, not the pail. Everyone else in town is way higher though.

Still might make a trip to the mainland, or the states. If I'm going there anyways I might as well get it then and save a few bucks.

You guys need to start buying in bulk! If you buy half a dozen buckets or more and ask real nice I bet your LFS will cut you a deal. Keep in mind too that IO and RC go on sale a few times a year from distributors, but the sale is not always passed on to us! Ask to order your salt during the next sale.
