About Bucket of sand
The Bucket of sand is a members-only skilling resource in Old School RuneScape.
"One of the ingredients for making glass"
Over the last 30 days it traded between 7 and 10 gp on the Grand Exchange, averaging 8 gp. About 2,722,436 units changed hands per day. The price is up 42.9% across that window. The Grand Exchange buy limit is 13,000 every 4 hours.
Casting High Level Alchemy returns 1 gp, which is 87.5% below the 30-day average price, so alching a bought one loses money.
