Was gonna go to a breaker today to get some coal... My brother couldnt loan me his truck so I was bummed out. I was out of coal, and my regular dealer still hasnt gotten their delivery. Thanks to this wonderful forum I found out that Agway sells coal. I called The closest one to my house (35 minutes away) and they had it in stock in bags. $7.49 for a 50# bag of Kimmels. I was like, ok $300.00 a ton and I can put the bags in my wrangler. kool ! I took out the back seat and headed over. When I arrived I had the most pleasant suprise!! Sat and Sun storewide sale!!!!! 20% off everything. Coal included!!! the discounted price was 5.99!!! It was just under 240.00 a ton!!! With my Back seats out I am able to fit 1500#s in my jeep. (30 bags) I already made 2 trips today, and will probably do the same tomorrow!!! I swear this kind of luck never happens to me!!!

I must also add the coal looks very good. No rocks sticks or any kind of unwanted debris. Now we will see how it burns :)

Most excellent! Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now & then.;)

A buddy of mine burns Kimmel. It's pretty good stuff.
