Currently I have about 4 1/2 ton of NEWP Green Supreme in storage, but looks like I may have
to switch brands next year. :down: Planning to pick up a few bags of different brands to try out
so I should have 5 ton by winter.
 
Two places in my area don't seem moving their product much. Agway in Lagrange has had 15+ pallets sitting outside for 2.5 weeks now (last year was 2.5 days & gone )& I passed Milton Hardware about a week ago and they looked to have dbl that amount sitting outside too. Both places were close to 300 per ton when I called.
 
Def need to buy now. freight is going up and raw materials are still low, so price will go only one direction... up, Up, UP.
 
I will purchase this week. No reason to believe prices will go down. $299/ton, Lignetics. I burned them last year and was very satisfied so I did not want to change. I may try a few bags of the other brands in the area. I only used 2 tons last year and only ordered 2 tons this year. Any way I can get into the club? I bought 4 tons within the last 12 months. Come on guys, let me in - please?
 
got my MWP sitting in my driveway since before monsoon season started up here in the north, didn't think I could beat 239/ton, so far I am right.
 
I just bought 4 ton of "pot O' gold" pellets from my local dealer. $300.00 a ton NO DELIVERY. Last year same same $230.00 a ton. If propane stays the same (low) my pellets will sleep the winter in my garage..
