Thanks to Tractor Supplies Kimmel pricing last Fall I'm good for next Winter. If they do it again this Fall I'll grab some more.
They charged 110 for 5 1.2 's a little east of Hartford in 2013. They can handle 6 and make a effort to leave the store with 6. You being further hits you maybe another 30 or so.......they said its best to do a max load that mins their mileage and worker costs. They are reliable and on time so there is something to say about that. :D

Its easy to want to get a cheaper price though coal gives me the mid 70's bare feet that only oil can do burning another 40% a year. Then when its in the minuses the burner is on 60-70 % of the time which means we gotta clean it more often .

For four tons of nut coal the price per ton is $280.00 (just coal) ..... this is lower than their pricing in Sept. 2014 if I recall correctly.

Santa Claus coal.

Because we live in Konnectikut, the home of the highest # of murders per capita, harboring of illegals and the mother of the $15 minimum wage for not even graduating from High School.

Good question. What are you buying for $285? Bulk or bagged? Brand? How far are they delivering for that price?

Sure you've got the right state? Ct. doesn't have any cities that even break into the top 10 for murders per capita never mind being the highest.

$15 minimum wage?? Where? It won't hit $10.10 until 2017.
