Anyone have an idea of where to get or buy a burlap sack? I'm in need of two for a halloween costume. Thanks!

Livestock store, or possibly Ace Hardware; mine has never failed me yet or maybe an arts and craft store. The last possibility might be a fabric store, but I would be surprised to see a bolt of it on the shelf. No, you won't buy a bolt, you buy it by the yard.

I heard it.called a burlap sack and a burlap bag in my house when I was growing up. My Victorian Grandmother said flour sack and burlap sack. My dad called it a bag. Almost everyone I know thinks of burlap bag/sack as something that contained animal feed.and once emptied was washed, dried and used for something else. Nothing went to waste then.
