Sympathy like. I saw something on line about using boiling water and rubbing alcohol when you run out of salt, wish I could remember where Be careful!!!!!Today is garbage day and it's windy here. One of the bins got blown over. I went out to pick it up. We are out of salt and our driveway is a sheet of ice. I slipped and turned around back into the house. My husband's bringing home salt at lunch. Hopefully, I can get out there and melt all of that ice.
