I-XL in Redmond has firebrick for 1.16. Bought them two weeks ago. Lowes on Rainier has firebrick for 1.49. Same ones.

Verified. I called them back and they quoted me the $1.16, splits $.88.

Thanks again.

Ooo, I'm getting close to having a plan. I'm so excited..of course, I haven't even broken ground yet. :-D Actually, I'm considerably more intimidated by the various concrete slabs (foundation, support, insulation). That seems hard to do right.

Not to hijack this thread, but for your slab consider these guys: Quick & Easy Concrete or Best Way Concrete (i used these guys).
they bring a truck that mixes the dry ingredients onsite, and you wheelbarrow them to your forms. And you only pay for what you use, plus a delivery charge. For my pad, it took less than 1/2 hour to get the concrete in using two wheelbarrows and two friends. And after mixing 30 bags of concrete for my hearth, i would say its much easier.
