Joanne, I used to buy the bigger bags of sunflower (black oil) seed and get them lifted into my vehicle near the back door, then put a tote under there and open the bag, pouring as much out as I thought I could deal with, and put the lid on and keep it near where my feeders were. I've found a brand of seed here that has quite a good mixture, unlike some of the really cheesy brands that some birds won't eat....it's called Little Wings, and is quite inexpensive...I think 25 pounds is $11 and 40 pounds is $16. Of course, I had a van, and didn't mind having a partial bag of seed near the back doors until I could lift the remainder out and fill the tote completely. I'm watering the yard and have to go downtown and buy a nozzle and a sprinkler that will allow me to water a long narrow strip (ex apparently took that with him when he packed up the loose stuff around the garage. On the side of the house is a strip of lawn that needs watering and I don't feel like doing it by hand for a half hour or more. Back later. Glad for Family dollar - they stay open on holidays and Sundays too. I got spoiled in NY where you could get nearly anything at nearly any time of the night 24/7...
