2009-12-16T10:10:00.000-08:00

Elite Products is selling their environmentally-friendly premium ice melter for $16.95 for a 20 kg bag. Details: http://www.shoppingniagara.com/elite-products/ice-melter.pdf.

Is this a good deal? I think so. Here are the numbers.

Elite Products Premium Ice Melter: $16.95 / 20 kg = $0.85 / kg

Canadian Tire

Alaskan Ice Melter: $7.99 / 5 kg = $1.60 / kg
Alaskan Ice Melter: $13.99 / 10 kg = $1.40 / kg
Organic Melt: $9.99 / 5 kg = $2.00 / kg
Sifto Extreme Ice Melter: $9.99 / 10 kg = $1.00 / kg
Sifto Extreme Ice Melter: $19.99 / 20 kg = $1.00 / kg

No prices were available on Walmart's site. However, I think this shows that Elite's product is less expensive. It's good to -25°C and is a purple colour so you know where it's been applied. Discounts are available for bulk purchases.
