Last year, yes, around this time. I hope it come back.
Not Scotts though. Although it is 2cu ft, better than Scotts' 1.5cu-ft ripoff

I wouldn't buy this at $1 a bag , seriously the worst. Used it two years in a row and regretted it both times . The Lowe's brand is the best for bagged mulch.

They typically have a $2.00 sales for a 2 cu ft bag starting some point in April
They have done this for the last several years and I have taken advantage of it several times

The 2 dollar mulch sale is the "lowes premium mulch" 2cu its less aesthetically pleasing in my opinion, usually shredded a little more, color a little less vibrant, I guess it's a matter of opinion, I prefer the Scott's

Mulch usually goes on sale in warm climates FIRST

Home Depot also has mulch same price of $1.665 cuft
Scotts $2.50 for 1cu ft [homedepot.com]
Vigoro $3.33 for 2cu ft [homedepot.com] (already on sale some North)

If you plan on living at your house for a long time, better off biting the bullet now and just buy rocks/stones instead of mulch.

A typo of what? This is a 1.5 cubic feet bag of mulch.
Manufacturer reduced the size instead of raising prices because it's less noticable.
