Have you bought for the season yet??? With Poll!

Usually at this time of the year I have my pellets all packed away tight in the garage just waiting for cooler weather. This year I didn't buy in the spring like I usually do, there were some good deals but nothing great. I put pellets on the back burner for the summer do to some home remodeling and am now searching around. I have narrowed my search to a couple of brands:

PA Pellets: $219/ton
O'malley's: $224/ton
New England Wood Pellets: $235/ton

Just not sure what I am going to do yet...

I added Cubex to my stash and am looking towards the 2011-2012 season.

Will likely start this season off trying the latest batch of MWP since I didn't have the time early last spring.

My goal is to have the 2011-2012 stash in the bunker come late fall. I've got to rearrange things in the garage before winter anyway.

Doing the garden and pickling thing currently.

I loaded up on a few ton of treecycle, I could not refuse the price.

Great timing for this poll for me, I am beginning to shop now. Wow, you folks on Conn. have quite a chioce. I called BT Enterprises in Bristol today and I was drooling over choices and prices $250 or less gets ya ton of awesome choices. Okies, Cubex, O'malleys,Hammers, Sprucepoints. I may take a trip and score some big time heat soon!

the prices in ct have been GREAT for A+ pellets. so of course the pellets are all tucked away and ready for the season .i have enough for 2 seasons .

LAst year I already had finished my purchases, this year I havnt started. But Im also working on a new stove.

Hopefully ill be buyng my pellets the end of the month. Just have to make up my mind between Hammers, Turman and Cubex.

Marth hardwood

Yep, my pellet buying is all done. Got 2 tons of Barefoots in April, 3/4 ton of Premier, and had a ton of Rockies left over from last winter, plus an assortment of a few bags each of Okies, Cubex, and Spruce Pointe courtesy of Mr. Takeman, and a couple bags of left-over Lignetics hardwood.....all those are tucked away nice n cozy in the basement. I also have 3 tons of Clean Fires from last winter out in the shed.

I'm going to get a couple of bags of Green Team from Lowes, and a couple of Stove Chow from HD to test burn. If anything else interesting shows up in the area that I haven't burned before, I'll give them a shot too.

I'm ready

Oh, and sorry Jay....I went with #1, although I could have gone with #5 too :lol:

3 Ton of pro pellets from last year and 5 ton of uncle jeds this year.Let her snow.coobie

#6 - All filled up, earlier this year than last. Caught the right deal at the right time 5 ton MWP to go with the i/2 ton of Maine choice left from last year.

3 ton dragon mt bought in April for $219 per ton,plus 1 ton lg and spruce pointe left over from last year.

Count me in with the "old Poops" who bought in April.

4 tons stacked in the basement.

2 tons LGs and 2 tons Okanagans, plus a few bags of Lignetics.

Ranger

P.S. Also, 3 cords of seasoned red oak in the wood room for the Tarm wood boiler, a pallet of Bio Bricks on the way ( getting tired of the firewood hassle after 40+ years and want to try them), and a new ( last December ) Buderus zero start boiler. Yes, I am a HEAT HOG!! Oink!

Had a ton left over from last year. I only had to buy 4 ton this year. NEWP - Schuyler plant product. I've never had problems with them and the plant is about 75 miles away. I like supporting local companies when I can.

Fresh 2.4 ton Spruce Points.
2 Bags Winter Warmth for testing
Left overs from last year: about 1.5 ton of Okies/Greene Team mix.

Looking to add another ton if I can get a good price on Cubex or Barefoot

Went with #1 as I usually get my bullk supply in the early spring, but could
have easily have gone with #5 if the prices in my area were as good as what
the CT boys are seeing this year.

Currently have about 5.8 ton-

Okies
Dragons
Green Supreme left over from last year
Loose bags of Spruce Pointe, Cleanfire Softwood, & LGs
#40 corn

I have enough storage space to fit in about 1.5 ton more but there is no way I am
paying $289 for pellets.

we went super hog.........
22 tons delivered to our storage
2 of us went together
set for sevaral heating seasons
bought direct from manufacturer

I bought at the end of July. 2 tons Spruce Pointe. Had 1 ton left over from last year, mix of Eagle Valley and Cleanfire. Test burned about 10 different brands (mostly top shelf stuff) last year. Still need to try some Turmans, Energex and Greene Team. Cant get my hands on any Barefoot or Hamer. Still need to pull my motors and blowers for cleaning before the first burn.

All set here too. Only went through 3 tons last year. This year I Bought 2-1/2 tons of Oakies and 2-1/2 tons of Spruce Pointe. Stove is all cleaned and ready to go too! I don't think I have been this excited for winter in a long time LOL
