Hi, is it the bag with the house/cottage on it or another style?
 
Sorry late reply, white with stove.
 
The local Walmart sells Pennington Nature's Heat for $5.00/bag. But, they store the pellets outside, in the open. I bought one bag to try them out, off the shelf, in the store. About 1/4 of them were moisture damaged and crumbled into fines. This was in December.

Next time I was in the store, I told the guy in charge of the Lawn & Garden part of the store that he should bring the pellets inside, at least get them out of the weather. He said they kept them covered with a tarp at night. I tried to explain to him that even with a tarp, which often gets pulled or blown off, the pellets can get moisture damaged. He said nothing and wondered off. The pellets are still stored outside in the rain and snow.
