Deal Details
Spring has arrived, which means this is back on sale. It says for in-ground but I also use it in raised beds and everything thrives. From my experience, no garbage thrown in unlike Miracle-Gro or the Lowe's. If you don't have anywhere selling soil for bulk, this is the best quality for the price.

If you're looking for in-store, make sure you select the "in-store" filter on the website or app. You may have to switch between different Supercenters to see who has it in stock.

I get this every year. I have raised beds. To make it better for raised beds, I buy peat moss, compost, and vermiculite, then blend the four together. Bulks the mix up and gives it more volume and less dense, better for raised beds. Good cheap way to add to my combo to replenish my beds every year.

Late to this post but in what ratio do you mix all those for raised beds?

TIA

Usually 50% soil, 25/25 compost and peat moss, then throw in some vermiculite (not a set amount, just get a feel for it). Ratios are not set in stone, kinda just a feel for it based on how it comes together.

WTF game is Walmart playing here. It's only $4.97 if bought online. It only allows you a max of 6 on the order. 6 is not enough for $35 min so they charge you $7 to pick up.

It's $4.97 in store as well, if your supercenter has them in stock.

I was in store they were not listed as $4.97 and the online listing shows online price only.

Strange, must be your store. It's showing the sale price in store in my city and others. They had this same exact sale last year, also in store.

Yeah it literally says "Price when purchased online" maybe some stores have it marked clearance in store.

It's not a clearance, they do this sale every spring and summer. It even says rollback, which isn't the same as clearance.

Thanks! Any reason why there is no rep button to rep you?

Thanks OP for the deal. Saw your post first on the Miracle Grow Garden Soil deal. The garden soil was located outside , and I mean outside even the garden section - it was out in the parking lot. Signed at the rollback price of $4.97. Got 2 bags. But it rained all morning so by this afternoon these 2 cf. bags were darn heavy. They must of weighed 80 lbs. each. Loaded 2 bags in my car and I was exhausted.

Don't shop at Walmart much. How easy is it to cancel Walmart+ ?
