Our HD here outside Phila have about 40 pallets of Presto Logs now for sale..
even have about 10 pallets of Stove Chows...
Guess the October panic buying is over around this area of Eastern Pa..
Amazing how the word Shortage kicks everyone into high gear..
but unlike a Peanut butter or lettuce shortage, Pellets are a necessary item for the Stove owners..
Speaking of, i Bought a few bags of Fireside Ultras there last week just to try...
Actually Impressed with the lower ash. . Lower than the Chows and I have always been a big advocate of these [for the Price anyways.] But HD raised the're pellets 20.00 ton so now they are $1 less than what I pay for Energex Hardwoods and O'Malley's hardwoods @ 250.00 ton. prob will not buy them anymore... last year 229.00. Now 249.00...Still a Good heat Pellet..

Shortage???;?
 
I really have no idea what the status of pellet availability is in my area since I bought my stash in April. All I know for certain is that there is no shortage at my house.
