I bought mine at the closest dollar store.
They only had 5 packages left, but they were packs of 6.

I went to 2 other dollar stores before I found one that had the 6 pack for $1.
That store had about 400 packs on that shelf. I bought 20. The cashier looked at me funny.

Family dollar has them 6/$1.00. I bought out every store in a 50 mile radius. Luckily, I used to drive for work. Every store said the same thing - "wow, you must have a lot of pots and pans"

Just get some crushed volcanic/lava rock for your sump, is comparable to ceramic rings and only $5 for 30kg.

if you have a phelps hardware in your area then you can purchase a case of scrubbies from the site and have it shipped to store for free. And pick it up there on the next truck day.

(Search store locator on site)(search- scouring pads)

They sell them for 15.48 a case. And thats 98 scrubbies. This is where i have bought all of mine. I have purchased 4 cases total on 2 seperate occassions.

Its hard to beat allmost 200 scrubbies for 31bucks. But if anyone finds a place let me know.

According to the sticky, you aren't even close to correct.
