some feed stores (grain elevator) will knock a nickle or so off the cost of your feed if you bring the old bags in to be refilled... may also depend on how much feed you're buying at a time

We use the paper feed sacks for garden mulch, or to lay down for new garden beds.

They compost really well, too.

Do you find the bags cause buildup in your flue?

nope, not that I know of.

As to tieing the sack. To keep it under the back hole, I would have to roll it, and then tie it in a tight U. It wont fit in the firebox id I do. Its a perfect fit just rolled up from end to end
