Trollhammer Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I'm down near Augusta, and we have Dixie Coal and Ice. I think they're somewhat of a chain, but not sure. I seem to remember them having one near Athens, Southside ATL, and Savannah. Again, that could be a completely false memory. I haven't dealt with them myself, I've been using Royal Oak charcoal for the time being. As far as Borax, any Bi-Lo carries it. If you go to the borax website, they have a search option for vendors of their products...that's how I found it at Bi-Lo. Other than that, hit up Tractor Supply, Home Depot, and your local industrial supply house. It always surprises me the random stuff that our local supply houses manage to scrounge up.
