It appears from my search EZBricks are available only in Ohio, and for pick up only. But, seems they are available in Western PA, that's near Ohio may be the reason. Do they ship to New Jersey?

The ECOBRICKS are on sale at your local Tractor Supply Company (TSC) for $2.99 for a bundle of 8 until November 6th.
I first saw these about a month ago. Bought a couple of bundles to try them out. The brochure that you can download from their ".net" website states that you can light them with newspaper. This I found extremely difficult to do. I used my small propane torch to light them.
With that being said.... I really, REALLY like them. I use them together with my firewood. Especially for the "all night" burns. A few 3-4 of the ecobricks along with a stick or two of regular "cord wood" makes for a nice and warm morning.
Keep in mind that you can get a "rain-check" if your local TSC is out of stock. I bought 13 packages - and cleaned them out. Ordered another 24.
The company "states" that a pallet of these is the equivalent of a PULP cord of wood...
Not a salesman of these NOR do I work for TSC. But - will experiment with these a little more this winter and maybe get a pallet. At the "sale price" these make good sense. At the normal price - regular cord wood would be cheaper (in my area).
Plus the mess is far less.
Keep in mind however - they MUST BE kept in a DRY place! No wood sheds! Unless 100% dry. I keep mine in my garage!
There - My 2 cents (lol)
