#2 oil here in NY is 1.79 a gallon. I to have not purchased pellets this year. Oki Platinum's go for 7.50per bag as of today.

The thing I like about Pellets is the heat is bought & paid for, No surprise in the mail after the tank was filled or the gas bill. I have just under 2 tons on hand and will need another to get through the year. I'll have to grab one before the cold really sets in and the "shortage" occurs.

Comparing Oil price to Okie firs?
geez... most people couldn't afford those Exspensive pellets when oil was 3.00 gal..
well over 400.00 ton in some areas.. just sayin..
My wife was in another HD and they too said pellets were moving well
Same here as far as between Lowes and HD. But the ton price between TSC and HD is the same and pellet grade about equal. It must be the difference in bag price I guess. But I know TSC had rows of pellets outdoors since Aug ! They should price them at $4.89 a bag and they would probably unload the lot of them. Be the first ones around here to break into the $4 range, I dare you, come on TSC !!Here, at least, I think maybe the reason HD is beating up the other two chain BBS,
is that they are the best deal of the three.
Last I looked, Lowes was around $299 for their low end.
That's 40 bucks more than HD..
And $20 more than LG Granules, and $14 more than La Cretes up the street....

Stay away....damaged ripped bags, some with water damage etc. No thanks.
Yeah, meanwhile drove my grand daughter to work again and went by the oil company we get our oil from, $1.79 gal. Not to revisit that mantra from another thread but reality is reality !Stay away....

You're right on the tipping point there. Oil, pellets, oil, pellets, what to do.We are still at about $2.20.
There ya go.I still burn some pellets, wife likes the fire in the living room, I like the heat
true but actually there is more to the mystery, the downstairs of the house on pellets I tend to keep well over 70 deg. Running oil tends to reverse the situation, I run oil at 68 deg more or less but that brings the upstairs bedrooms up in temp and it gets a bit too warm sleeping. So now we are into that turn the heat down a bit at night thing, then the downstairs is cool in the morning. The stove evens this all up at least until the real cold weather comes along when the reverse is true.. It sounds like over thinking but it's easier to do than explain lolThere ya go.
Mystery solved!
