Had to get some more supplies for weekend projects so went to the Auburn Lowes.
A Lowes employee was in front of the main entrance leaning on a display of wrapped pallets of pellets bumming a cup of coffee from a customer he knew.
Price on the sign was $299 a ton with $25 off for 50 - 99 bags, and on and on . . . .
Asked the Lowes guy what brand the pellets were as I was leaning over to lift the wrap to look. ( Writing in French on bottom of bag.)
Lowes guy says, Gee I don't know, guess I should know that, Huh?"
He gets on his cell phone and calls in for more information.
The answer was, these are softwood brand, but we have Maine Woods for the same price and they are all hardwood.
I did not say that I can get Maine Woods placed in my garage for $220 a ton and I believe they are an 85% hardwood blend . . . . Just said thanks and walked off, glad I already had my stash of Okanagans and LGs.
Makes dealing with knowledgeable folks like Southern Maine Renewable Fuels ( www.woodpellets4me.com ) even more pleasurable.
