When do you call it the end of the season...afraid to to back to oil, propane, or gas...I'll buy a few bags as I need hem to save on oil.
 
I am saving 8 bags (4-8 days) of pellets just in case my furnace dies. I burned almost 3 tons, when the temps got near 0 F I used two bags a day. My neighbor with a hot air stove, burned 4 tons and had to go out and buy another.
 
I burned 3 tons of Energex, just bought 2 Bags of Cubex, and two bags of Ashland pellets as an audition for next year.
 
Started with 3 tons, now have 1 ton plus 12 bags. I might make it without opening that last ton.
 
One bag left from 3 tons THink I will keep to remind me of what they look like in case oil stays cheaper. Really want to buy 3 tons but at a reasoneable price not the $300/ton this season.
 
Started with 6 tons have about 40 bags left.

wow..I thought my 6 tons was bad,,
 
I've got a Harman PB105 pellet boiler and I started using my pellets in August to heat my DHW. I'm going to buy 10 ton this Spring and that should last all year.
 
147 Barefoots left out of 300. Won't even need a ton to make through NEXT year. Do I need to re-up to maintain pig status, or am I grandfathered in by buying almost 2 years worth in first place?
 
I too have a Harman PB105 pellet boiler that I fired for the first time the first Sat. in March of 08. It has been used for a complete year now including all summer for DHW using 416 bags of pellets. (8.32 tons) I puchased 14 tons of pellets last April-May, PA pellets, probably not the best pellet from what I read but I would purchase them again for $199.00 per ton.
 
Started with two tons.

Did not get stove until January 13th.

Have one ton plus 12 bags left. Average use of 0.71 bags per day. ( Used wood boiler some also.)

Should have 40 or so bags left over.

Three tons ordered for next year, early Spring purchase through pelletsales.com.
 
Started with 200 bags and down to about 80 now.

Been burning pellets part-time and letting the furnace run more lately,
so I expect to burn through about 30 more bags before I shut the
stove down for the season.
 
I normally use the stove from Oct. thru April, but have used it in Sept. and May, even June a few times. I started last September with 69 bags and currently have 25 left. I am hoping to have 10 bags left by the end of April.
 
i started with 5 Tons (250 Bags) and now have 55 Bags left. I'm hoping this last me until the end of April. I'm planning to pickup another 5 Tons in May/June for next season.
