The soil you're buying for <$2 per bag is full of fillers, mostly wood.
The stuff my mom bought, 5 bags for $10 was pure junk.. I was noticing all the cr4p as I was spreading it on her garden for her.

I'd say the current deal at costco is the best for potting mix, miracle grow 60L bag for $8.. moisture control

Potting soil = for pots/planters
Garden soil = for plants that are planted in the ground
Top soil/lawn soil = typically for topdressing your lawn

Agree that Costco currently has the best deal going for potting soil. As for top/lawn soil you do need to be careful as the cheaper ones have more fillers and may contain weeds. I usually use Scott's, though this year I did buy 5 bags of President's Choice for $10 and found it to be comparable in terms of quality

Do these soil bags state what percentage of content there is inside? I like to find one with the highest compost fill.

I had a pretty good experience with these, no weeds from the soil. Walmart soil on the other hand is crap.

Apart from quality, Walmart is 20L bags. Vigoro is 29L so it's about 50% bigger.

You can start by turning it to bring back the colour. If it is still in good shape just top off where needed.

You should check with your municipality, but mulch should be able to go with your organic waste.

Triple Mix is cheaper at Lowes.

I picked up 40 bags at $2.24 each ....

My backyard lawn is horrible. This is perfect for re-seeding!

$2.24 is a contractor price and cannot be combined with no TAX saving. So I think 13% is better than 10%. Sale price is $2.49 per bag.

For anyone in the western provinces that noticed the ‘Bella Terra All-Purpose Gardening Soil’ for $1.87, I went to grab some at my local HD here in Manitoba and was told that it was a flyer error and is only stocked out east. I then asked if instead of the $2.50/bag for the Vigoro gardening soil we could adjust the price to $1.87 and the manager hardly let me finish asking before nodding and saying “you bet!”. Added bonus was that the Vigoro bags are 28L compared to the Bella Terra that are only 25L (so for every ~8 bags you essentially get one free!). I have tremendous luck with awesome staff at Home Depot here. I find they are mostly all (except one staff member) willing to do what they can to help you out and keep you happy. I also used the email sign-up to save another $5 off $50 purchase which is on the home page of the HD site. Hope this helps my fellow westerners! GO JETS GO!

Just came back from Home Depot at St. Annes in Winnipeg and the sign price was 4 for $10 for 3 different types but at the checkout, they rang in as $1.78 each. Nice. Slightly Smiling Face

This is very very very minor if you buy under 20 bags.

20 bags at $2.49 = $99.60 ... with the NO TAX Event
40 bags at $2.24 = $89.60+HST = $101.25 ...

The difference cannot even get you a LARGE coffee at McD's or Tim Hortons. NOT A BIG DEAL if you are NOT getting more than 40-50 bags ... if you pickup 100 bags ... then the difference could possibly be a couple coffees ... but you cannot get Lowes to change their system!

but unfortunately ... their system is ALREADY PROGRAMMED if you are OVER 10 bags ... it automatically gives you the $2.24 a bag price.

Bought 10 bags of Scott's black mulch last week. A lot of pieces looked to be missing black color. I will top up with this sister brand since it's cheaper.

The dark brown is still my favorite
