I was in Walmart last night and noticed, yellow bottled heat is still $1.28. But Walmart’s copycat brand was discounted down to 50¢! It’s still 12 fl oz and it’s the real ratio mixture of Methonal found in heet. I verified it running tests last night.

For those of us who only use ½ fl oz alcy per 2C H2O/meal that’s only 2.1¢/meal!

Put this cost in the stove calculator http://howardjohnson.name/Backpacking/Stove/Stoves.htm and this becomes the cheapest fuel (barring no-cook and wood-cook) to use backpacking.

If you can find this stuff in your walmart, be careful, they also make the iso alcy (red bottled heet) copycat brand. Both walmart bottles are black so read the ingredients before buying.

I also noticed the walmart bottles pour better than heet; i.e., no dribbling down the bottle side.
