So, I opened a sealed bag of my Matra White pine pellets and dumped them into my storage can and found a worker's glove. This was the first time in 12 years of burning pellets I ever found something in a bag of pellets and thought it was kind of funny, so I wrote the company the following email with an attached photo of the glove and bag.
Hello,
When I was a kid, it was always fun waiting to see what kind of fun surprise was waiting to be found, hidden deep within the breakfast cereal box. Who knew as an adult, the fun would continue! Anyway, I opened a bag of my favorite wood heating pellets, Matra brand, and as I poured the pellets into my storage bin, along with that distinctive wonderful white pine smell, there it was in all its surprise glory. A surprise reminiscent of those childhood days and the aforementioned cereal box. Upon closer examination however, my surprise bonus turned out to be Vince’s lost leather palmed work glove. It’s a pretty nice glove though so I’m hoping to find the other one in one of the remaining bags of the half ton I bought from this pallet. Afterall a nice pair of work gloves is a great bonus, but I fortunately have two hands instead of one, so the other glove would be great to have as well. I have attached a photo of the glove and bag it came out of.
All kidding aside, I love your Matra wood pellets and although they cost significantly more than box store pellets and I must travel 70 miles to get them, I do it anyway for the quality. And please don’t be too hard on Vince for losing his glove in a bag of pellets, after all, mistakes happen.
Best regards,
Raymond Morgan
