I have been calling around local shops looking for Biobricks. I even heard Benny's was carrying them, but they're sold out.

So does anyone know of any shops anywhere in southeastern MA or eastern RI that have them?

Thanks
 
They are a hot item this season! Everyone is selling out fast.
South Shore Wood Pellets is now sold out too.
Have you tried pelletsdirect.com & pelletsales.com yet?
 
I found some Benny's locations that still has them... but they're $9.99 for 40 lbs, which I think is 20 bricks. That's robbery, but I'm curious to try them so I'll be a sucker and buy a few packages.
 
I am surprised Bennys carries them, there are two not too far from my
home but both only carry the duraflame logs.
No pellets or bio bricks.

Be sure to let us know how you like them after you try em out.

We ordered 3 pallets of bio-bricks for this season. So far, so good. We've definitely found that it works best with a little mix of cordwood. Say 70% bricks and 30% cordwood in the firebox at any given time. One of the best things about these bricks is how it compensates for the wet wood we invariably encounter. The burn time on them has been great too. Always have plenty of coals left in the morning. Used to be, I would have to spend 20 minutes or so fussing with the stove to get it going. Now, I throw in some bricks and a piece of wood, crack the door, let the dogs out... By the time I'm back the stove is on it's way. My only concern is the 3 pallets won't last as long as I had hoped...I think next year 4 pallets would be better. Also, less ash, cleaner in the living room, less time hauling wood in from outside...and they're a little more environmentally friendly.
