Inferno Pellets 199 at Big Y supermarket......

[webbie]

Our local Big Y has loads of them outside at 199 a ton - a pretty good price for these parts. I would assume other Big Y's have them???

Anyway, just a heads up for those who get excited under $200.

I doubt there will be much excitement over "Inferiors" until either that price goes way down, or the quality of the product goes way up, compared to last year.

Web,

Hopefully you posted this in the fuel report.

.......had a bad experience with the crap last season

You can take some comfort knowing that you were not alone.

local BigY has a sign for $229/ton.

With all the work to move wood pellets and the room it takes to store them, along with the fact that the employees probably have no idea what they are used for I can't believe we have grocery, gas station and pharmacy's selling them. Just my .02

You are correct. But at that price, I wouldn't even give them a 2nd thought.

well now, I don't live too far from Southampton and $199 seems like a good price..but those pellets are crap eh? What's the going rate for a ton of a semi-decent brand at this late stage in summer, this year? (western MA area)

I'm seeing $249/ton on signs around here when I casually look. Have to get cracking and get my pellets for this winter ...was hoping price would come down but honestly haven't been paying attention...is this the average/going rate? Sheesh.

Pelletsales hasn't offered a deal on delivery this year so I won't go with them unless/until they do.

They own em?! I thought the guy that owns J&J Matl did..

Just great :-S ....
I was hopin NER would go back to selling the good stuff. I have been buying pellets from them for years but skipped
over them this year because all they had was the Infernos.

 

[smilejamaica]

if big y had the pellets at buy 1 get 2 free maybe more people would be buying them lol.

If you can find some quality pellets at that price (Oakies, Barefoot, Hamers, Dragon Mtn., etc, etc), then I'd say grab them. Otherwise, average or below average pellets should be much less than that, IMO.

Any word on the quality of this years NEW AND IMPROVED Inferno Pellets, They have them close to me but I can't just buy a couple of bags to see how they burn, I don't want to roll the dice and buy a ton.

When I've searched these pellets I read about how they promised that this years pellets would be improved but would appreciate a first hand account by someone here that has their hands on some of these.

 

[imacman]

...... I don't want to roll the dice and buy a ton.........

Smart move. I would wait until you can either get a few bags to test burn, or you start seeing positive reports about them on this forum.

Personally, I have my doubts.......
