I bought this firepit at K-mart, Oh...almost 4 years ago. It was on sale around Thanksgiving for $28. It's one of the "approved" ones..it's not huge, but it works. I only use it at The Fort, and when I'm done, I bring it home, clean it out, put a large black garbage back over it and put it in my shed.
