Probably not a bad deal but anyone who needs 2500 ft of this is (hopefully) buying their building supplies wholesale. If a homeowner uses this it will most likely be 10-100' per lifetime.

Backer rods are usually round, flexible lengths of foam that are used as a "backing" in joints or cracks to help control the amount of sealant/caulking used and create a back stop. Many sizes/diameters are available for optimal fitting to the size of the joint being sealed.

I actually only need around 1000 ft of this product, but the price of the bulk amount was almost 30% less than the price of the smaller amount. I decided to purchase the bulk amount because I think it will be a good deal in the long run. I can use the extra for future projects.

What are you doing, a bunch of concrete or trim work?

Very true and can also very useful for concrete and in RV's (for completely different reasons obviously).

Read the reviews. It looks like this is only actually 1250ft and is listed incorrectly.
