I just counted what I have left and I see I have burned 113 bags so far.
 
95 is in the hopper today
 
Just brought in my last bag first ton, burned 20 odd bags in the fall, maybe 20 gallons HHO.
 
96 bags so far. Last year on this date we had burned 152. It's amazing what a mild winter and better insulation can do for pellet consumption.
 
Started burning about mid November... at about 68 bags used presently. Have supplemented the pellet burning with some coal and wood burning in another part of the house.
 
About 2 1/2 tons so far.... but I'm trying to keep my 92 year old mother-in-law from assuming room temperature...
 
And the winner is...................................drum roll please.....................................203 bags; (but no oil or propane and 2 stoves).

Sorry I added wrong, had to correct

Sorry, Charlie. I'm up around 250 give or take in a St. Croix Revolution furnace, and expect to go through at least 60-80 more. But, I've burned about 10 gallons of oil vs. about 1000 gallons last year at this time.
 
what in the world are you heating with that many BTU's?! wow!
 
76 bags mostly turmans
 
Bag 116, started burning Oct 1..

Cant remember what it was last year, but still no propane : )

I'm embarrassed to say, the 37th bag is burning as week speak. The stove has only needed help 2-3 days all season. Unbelievable.
