the bend tarp and liner , liner I picked up is tough stuff, if I recall right around 45 per sq ft. ppl24 I used that in my arizona pond, used ppl 36 in this pond, too many rocks. It can be laid right on raked dirt.

I did go and found out that 50% off is still not cheap.....it's independently owned so they pay what we pay so I don't blame them I guess.

I didn't know Home Depot sold by the foot. I thought they just sold pre-cut pkgs of the not so quality thinner stuff?

HD has 15' wide rolls and you can buy any length for $10.50 a foot. At least when I bought it last that was the price. Oh and it was 55 mil.
