Bulk Molasses?

I am looking for bulk molasses. I know that some people have posted that they have used this for their bear bait sites. Where did you purchase it from? The last time I was in to the bulk barn for molasses people gave me funny look after I had 5 1L containers in my cart. I really wanted more, but I thought I would leave some for the other customers.

I know you can buy it in Amqui PQ, at the COOP, but I'm sure you can get it in NB, anywhere where they seel feel for cattle.
It can get quite expensive to use for bait. Why not just use old fryer oil and scrap from the butcher?

Coop on St Mary's street Fredericton had it this spring, 5 gallon pail was 30 sum dollars.

Can you buy it direct from Crosby's on Rothesay Ave. in Saint John??

I've bough some from Amqui Co-op. 15 bucks for a 5 gal pail and they have it by the barrel. Not bad but make sure you supply them with a pail and cover. They'll charge you 15 more for the pail and 5 for the cover. could end-up costing way too much... Plus my bears around here didn't seem to care for it. I tasted it and it sure isn't the crosby we put on toast...!!! Just not that sweet

Co-op in Sussex sells it !

No,I've tried.Also,when I arrived at Crosby's I was talking to a loading dock worker who told me to check in the office but DO NOT tell them it's for bears.They must be antis I guess?They sent me to TRA wholesale.

Good heads up.. have to remember to keep that in mind.

I picked up 25L pails from the Bulk Barn.
