The Lowes near me has a pallet of rice coal on clearance for $2 a bag.
I bought all they had. 25 bags for $50.
That works out to $100 a ton.
Pretty good deal.
Those plus what I already have will get me through the rest of the winter.

I got over a ton of coal for $136.

Lowes selling anthracite coal must be a regional thing.
