Where's the cheapest salt in the Portland Area?

Seems like the standard price for a bucket of IO salt is $62, but I can find it for $35 in NY. Anyone know of a cheaper place to get IO salt?

I bought IO from PetSmart for 34.99. They price match their online sale price. Not sure if it is still on sale but, if it is, just tell them the online price and then they adjust it at the register.

crazy 200g box costs like 30.00 ask a good lfs they will probably charge you a few bucks but it beats 40.00 a bucket for only 160g even if the lfs sells it for 45-50
