Does anyone have any ideas about local places that might have burlap bags (for sack races)?
I have called Agri Supply, a local feed supplier, and gone by the Farmer's Market with no luck.
I see lots of them available online, but I need them by tonight if possible.

Also, does anyone know where to get used horseshoes for a good price? I have seen sets at Dicks, but I'm trying to find options <$50.

What about craft stores like AC Moore and Michaels?

we used to get them at an ag. store out in garner. Can't recall the name though.

The only Ag store I know of in Garner is Agri Supply off 70 near Team Powersports. I called them first

Michaels & AC Moore both said no.

Whole foods said they get their sweet potatoes in them but dont currently have any. Fresh Mkt & HT both said no, too.

You can buy rolls of burlap in the garden dept of lowes or home depot

Throw in a few zip ties and you should have some workable sacks

I'd consider doing this method double ply though

Do you need the horse shoes tonight?

You can always go by a large horse farm and ask when the farrier comes because you want to have the leftover horse shoes. Or call a farrier directly and ask if he can collect them for the day? But good luck picking them up from them that day.
