Depending on the batch creation date and location, I find basically any nationwide soil brand to wildly vary in composition. It can contain more or less "sticks", which is "composted forest product" which is decomposed mulch. Some bags have mostly rich black soil. So because I have some time and don't have access to have yards of soil dumped because I live in a downtown of a major city, I'll buy soil like this when it goes on sale on multiple locations and even multiple pallets in the same store. They all can be different, it's just how it goes with commercial bagged soil at this scale and being able to sell it for two dollars. The bags that are a little too mulchy get sealed up and stacked in my backyard in the open. By next year things will have composted down further and turn more soil like.

Also weird little orange balls/seeds/eggs is a common complaint across the board for MG soil, it's just coated fertilizer.

When I sifted the first couple bags I got from ace hardware, I found a piece of glass, a two inch rock, many small stones, pieces of brick, plastic shreds, weird little orange spherical seeds, and so many sticks that I maybe got 40% soil to be generous, and tossed the rest to my compost pile. It is only worth buying if you're dead broke and can spend the time sifting the various garbage out. not to mention all the tomatoes I've grown in this stuff look TERRIBLE and are losing leaves left and right. really not even sure if they'll survive.

Paid about $6 per 40 quart bag at Sam's recently...that's about 1.55 cu ft so this is a good price. The soil in the bag was nice and black...no issues

That deal ended last month. Right now HD has the slickest price available today (~$0.30 lower than Lowe's SpringFest sale price). Edit: also the Ace deal was 1 cu.ft. like above poster says. Doing the math, I think Lowe's has the better price per cu. ft. And it's available right now.
Thanks, I stand corrected about 1.0 CF vs. 1.5 CF I erroneously said about the Ace Hardware deal last month (which is now expired). But for the math part, that was a better deal. The Lowe's deal comes out to $2.67 for 1.0 CF if you do the math. For example, the Ace HW would've cost $7.50 for 3 CF (3 bags) whereas Lowe's costs $8.00 (4 bags). Not a huge difference, but just wanted to correct you on the math part of your comment.

if I get 9 bags it is $2.99 delivery, if I ordered 10 or more bags, $20+ delivery. So I got 9 bags. Maybe tomorrow, I'll get 9 more. I am redoing my Florida lawn in a few areas. So watch for that. Pickup is free.

I'm going to skip this year. NYC has been giving out compost soil late last year and doing it again this year.

Lowes Sta-green garden soil 1cu ft bags ~$2.24 seem like the better deal, but that's not even posted. Just mentioned here as a reference. Anyone try both and can compare??

According to the website, it's just $2.24 / bag. No buying 3 or anything.... assuming it's the same product you were looking at.

They dont. They use a 3rd party like doordash and then the dasher cancels on you and home depot just cancels the whole order. Waste of time lol

Just out of curiosity, why perlite and not vermiculite? I am guessing it is based on geography, a wet climate maybe?

Perlite is used for drainage and vermiculite is used to retain moisture.

If it's anything like the major city I live in that's 100 miles from NYC, it's mostly compost from leaf litter and mulch from municipal lot cleanup (clearing overgrown city owned lots, park upkeep, etc.) and also herbivore manure pickup if the city has a zoo like most major cities would. It's a nice free resource for city dwellers.
