    I'm in for something like 4-8 bags, maybe more.

    As usual, the day was open, and now it's getting full with kid's events. but I think I can get someone to cover

    I'm going to keep this post updated with the bag counts

    Updated 2/3

    Bud/turbo: 8
    Dustin: 2-4
    Dave: 8
    leymas: 0 (just helping)
    Terri/sponge: 10
    Stuart/SGM: 2-4
    Jamey/tangers: 2-4
    Jeanette/beckerj3: 2-3
    Andrew/millertime: 4
    Chris/fence: 8
    Frank/FFrost: 2
    Maureen: 5-7
    Scott/scottlittle: 4
    Zach/zoobie: 2
    Waterrat41: 1
    Chris C.: 1
    Su/violet21chewy: 1

    60-70 bags so that is a good number range, because the "formula" is for about 70 bags and sometimes we come up short.

    Forgot to say that please everyone comment how many bags you are going to buy so we can get a count. @Turbo's Aquatics@Turbo's Aquatics is the price figured out after we buy all the stuff?

    Ok everyone on the directions above you will want to go down 3rd Street SE all the way to the east where the road takes a 90 degree turn than you will turn right onto 4th Street se. My house will be the 3rd built house on the left. It is on the corner. The directions are not right if you use GPS since it is a new Road and house. It will send you to the same place as above. Just use my directions I listed above. For those using Hwy 65 you will want to turn onto Washington Ave and go to the 2nd Street on the left which is 4th Street SE and it is the 3rd built house on the left. Just like above.

    Since no one wanted to answer @tangers@tangers questions = The bags we used last time were gallon zip lock bags that were filled and flattened. I want to say there wasa bout 16oz per bag with each bag having a sheet or two of nori in it as well. Price last year was $10 if you were there and $15 if you were not there to help. Do not know what it will be this year.

    Here's the resource link for the DIY Food that @Turbo's Aquatics@Turbo's Aquatics wrote up.

    I updated Post #2 in the thread with the counts, we're at 48-60 bags so we can shoot for the batch size in the Resource (70)
