B&B Competition Oak on sale at WalMart $9.97 per 17.5lb bag

[Perry Mason]

Just found B&B competition oak on sale at WalMart for $9.97 per 17.5lb bag (normally $22.98) Free delivery for orders over $35 (4 bags). https://www.walmart.com/search?q=B%2...hod%3AShipping

Not available at that price for me...

[RichieB]

I went back to the link, it's back the original price. I wonder if it was a mistake and once the orders started coming in, which I'm sure there were many they said oh Sh$t.

[Perry Mason]

Yep - mine's back to the original price as well. Thank goodness I ordered 10 bags. Should've ordered more!

Guys, $9.99 is the current regular price on the B&B 17.6# bag of briquettes at Academy:

https://www.academy.com/p/b-b-natural-oak-176-lb-grill-briquettes

Sadly they do not appear to offer shipping on that item, just in-store pickup. And also sadly, they were $7.99 a year ago, and are now $9.99.

Some of us don't have Academy near us

The sale wasn't on for me yesterday evening when I looked at this and another topic announcing the sale, but today it is! Got 10 bags coming, free shipping (but sadly no local pickup at my Walmart). Thank you.

[Grillin Dad]

Yup, sale is back for me too. I’ve got 8 bags coming

[jfmorris]

For those of you who have NOT tried the B&B briquettes before, you are gonna love them. They are the closest thing I've found in burn time and heat generated to the Weber briquettes that I used to get. And at 9.97 a bag, there is no reason to buy KBB instead of these.

[Panhead John]

jfmorris The first time I tried B & B after using KBB for years, that was the first thing I noticed too! The B & B was so much more of a pleasant smell.

[PNWsmoke]

Used some kbb for starting a BB load yesterday.
You can smell it for sure , big difference .

[Bkhuna]

KBB puts out an unacceptable amount of dirty, stinky smoke when it's lighting. B&B does not. That alone make me less likely to use KBB at home. I don't want the bad smoke drifting into my neighbors yard. On the other hand, KBB is probably better at keeping mosquito's and other pests off the patio.

I just picked up 3 bags of B&B Charcoal at Walmart for $9.97 per bag for the 17.6 pound bag.

[lumbrjk]

Got 10 bags and they sent it via pallet through Old Dominion Lines. Probably cost them $40 to ship!

[Huskee]

Dang, I ordered 10 bags and they came in 5 cardboard boxes with 2 in each. I got 5 different 'shipped' notices and texts, and 5 more 'delivered' emails and texts. A pallet would've been welcome.

[TheCountofQ]

They show 9.97 a bag for me, but also shows out of stock and unavailable at my location with no option for shipping.

[JHB]

Same for me here in Massachusetts.

[SheilaAnn]

+ 1 TheCountofQ I just checked and there is no option to ship. Boo!

[TheCountofQ]

Yep. I love that stuff for the long cooks in the Gourmet. Am gonna have to find a source up here in the North.

[SheilaAnn]

BF seems to think that we have to have a wal-mart account in order to add to cart.

[HawkerXP]

Yes, you need an account to order and have shipped. Also showing out of stock for me.
