We're thinking about buying a sand box or sand table for DS. Just wondering where to buy the sand to fill it. Thanks!

Any big-box store with a garden center - Walmart, Target, etc. Also Home Depot, Lowe's.

lowes, home depot sells small bags or if you have a big sand box and know someone with a truck you can look for a sand & gravel/excavator company and ask if they have 'mason sand'

Sometimes our larger grocery stores have it out front in the summertime. We also get it at Walmart or the hardware stores.

Our local Lowes and Home Depot did not carry play sand. I ended up buying from Toysrus. It was around $5 a bag, IIRC.

I got a bag of play sand from lowe's for about $3 - it weighed 40 pounds! it was enough to fill 3 dish pans.
