Slickdeal mulch posts are always the same - someone complaining about debris in their mulch, washed away color, etc. As discussed in this thread, all mulch is regional, Home Depot and Lowes has suppliers all over the country, for both their store brand and name brand mulches. In some areas you get tree stumps, most areas you get shredded pallets, and most places you get C&D (construction and demolition debris - basically, lumber from demoed buildings). it's a bit of the luck of the draw. Pallet and C&D is better at retaining color, because it is dry; grounds stumps, etc. have higher moisture content and don't hold color as well. C&D stuff is the one that will have the most debris (and potentially toxic material). All dyes are essentially the same - either iron oxide or carbon dye (like newspaper ink). I've gotten good mulch and bad mulch from lowes, HD and my local landscape company. There is no consistency - but check one bag, because there will be consistency within a pallet, as the source will usually be the same.

This mulch is regional, so what you get in MI might not be what you'd get in CA or NY.

Prop65 is basically meaningless [wsj.com]. A "Prop 65" label is attached to just about everything for fear of being sued. So congratulations CA, for passing a great "cry wolf" law that rendered itself moot by virtue of its existence.

hah you will find prop 65 warning basically on everything down to a bag of bread so if that's your concern, you will end up living in a bubble

why lowes need to block VPN ip?
Mulch is a huge industry and they do not want foreign influence impacting the price.

At one point the US was going to switch from gold standard to the mulch standard.

I haven't found mulch yet with good reviews. Just bought the tractor supply stuff
Buy the rubber mulch and never worry about Artillery Fungus or buying bags of mulch every season.

no MSC cert and a prop 65 warning. If you don't have kids, who cares but I wouldn't put this in a play area. Some bad reviews as well but mulch is always different across the country.
Nobody should put this in a play area. This isn't playground mulch. Playground mulch isn't dyed and uses only virgin wood; not recycled lumber. My local mulch supply has wood playground mulch for $32/yard. Or you can get fancy with rubber playground mulch from Sam's or Costco.

Only a crazy person would pay to turn their yard into a landfill. The point of mulch is that it prevents weeds from growing but also eventually breaks down and provides nutrition for the intended plants that the mulch has in proximity

Need soil.

And hopefully the 9.99 Kingsford double bag deal returns. I'm on my last bag from Memorial Day 2 years ago.

Because they can't track you as well. All they have is a cookie which you can opt out of most of the valuable stuff (to them) if you want.

Pavers aren't 25 cents this year. So disappointed! Not even close at 48 cents.

Oh and for the haters please make a big deal out of me being cheap and wanting to save 23 cents...
