LOL Lee. But I can't complain about the price down here. It's nowhere near as good as what the prices are in the south, (Pa), but I'll have-ta admit, our prices have been rock solid and stable, and hasn't changed here in 10 years...no matter what morons are running the government. (I shouldn't say that out loud. They're probably bugging our conversation, looking for info, and reasons.)

Have you checked pricing lately. 1 year ago I paid $279.90 a ton for 8 tons through my supplier, Pellets Direct in southeastern Ma. This Spring their best price is $379.90 a ton. A $100 a ton increase!!.joeq wrote: ↑Mon. Apr. 18, 2022 5:18 pmLOL Lee. But I can't complain about the price down here.

I picked up another 2.2 tons today at Sherman’s. Still $170.00 a ton. I’m all set for next winter.

Now you're scaring me. I purchased mine last fall at $300 a ton. (I only buy a couple, so no special deals)
