You have to plan out how to get the most out of your foam blocks, with minimal waste, and good solid surfaces to adhere the foam to.

As such, some of the stores are now sending back the blocks instead of giving them away. I have found that during the past year the price of foam has tripled. Most stores stack them up on pallets and whoever wants them can have them. They have to throw them away when they are done shipping them to the stores. The blocks are 12x12x18 or 19 inches long.

I have approximately 135 blocks of styrofoam in the build. Most of the money was in glue, paint, and spray foam.
