I've started actually looking at the different icemelters out there (starting to be stocked) for use in Randy's 2 part recipe

No problem finding the baking soda and anhydrous calcium chlorided (Prestone Driveway Heat)--
Home depot has 50 pounds bags--
Lowes has 9.5 pound jugs--
But haven't found any Mag flakes yet-- however Home Depot did have 50 pound bags of this stuff called "Freeze Guard"-- this stuff is Magnesium Chloride Hexahydrate (just like the mag flakes) but is packaged by a company called North American Salt-- there was no price next to the stuff I found (there was an entire pallet of the stuff)... however, Dr Holmes-Farley will likely not recommend this stuff since he has not verified its purity....
So has anyone seen any of these bags around??
