Anybody know where a guy could get a pallet of bulk sugar, say 1000 lbs at a time. I've looked at Amazon etc and cant find it. Getting tired picking it up 25lbs at a time from walmart. Thanks Tom.

Feeding Bees?  Have you tried asking your local grocery store, or Walmart, and see if they will order a pallet for you?  We used to get pallets of bottled water from grocery stores and Walmart for construction jobs.  We just had to coordinate having it come in with their normal delivery schedule.

Seems you should be able to deal with some of the Co-Op that do sugar beets  - I know I hauled heavy heating oil into processing plant along I 90 in southern MN - 
 Do you need refined sugar or could it be molasses or such , seems lot of feed stores also make sweet feed for horses using sugar so that might be a source also .

And some corn, sheet copper, copper tubing, and a pallet of gallon jugs😂😂😂😂

If you have a mom and pop diner or cafe around you, get them to price it from their food supplier

Seems several of us had the same immediate thought: "you must be making a bunch of moonshine." When I was in my early teens I used to go with one of my uncles to pick up damaged 100lb bags of sugar from the railway depot  and deliver them to a third party. Ain't saying who or where.

Got a Sam's or Costco membership or know someone? Would think with all the stuff on pallets in there they could get a pallet of anything

Any grocery stores near you with a real bakery, Hy-Vee maybe? I would think they would have larger bags of sugar for the volume they do. Talk to the bakery or store manager.

sams would be the best bet---we can get whatever amount we want--or COULD--not saying that now with this crap going on that you can get more than a ten pound bag!

I used to get large quantity of items for my church and went through my food supplier.  Do  you know any food sales people in your area like Sysco or another larger company I used to have them order it for me on a separate invoice and pay them in advance or immediately when it came in.

Call a food service company like Sysco or Martin Bros. They'll have it in 50 lb bags. Sysco has a warehouse in Des Moines.
