HD in bellingham, MA right off exit 18 on 495.
Has open pallets of Natures Choice premium hardwood and open pallets of American Freedom pellets. Both brands 5.18/bag. Not sure if they have packaged tons.
 
good to know.

I now live in NJ but I grew up in Blackstone and lived there for 19 years, right next to Bellingham. Small world.......
 
I live very near there...how are those 2 brands?? Never heard of them? I've bought the Fireside Ultrs from that store and they have been v good.
 
Maybe they are Nation's Choice instead of Nature's Choice?

FWIW if in fact they are Nation's Choice you may want to think about purchasing something else. The ton I bought from HD in Shrewsbury is loaded with ash and they are dusty. Worse than Infernal's. I can't use them as a shoulder pellet. I'm going to wait until I can run them on high or medium when it gets colder (to reduce the amount of ash).
 
Yeah I botched the names.. Just re looked at the bags.. Nations choice and Freedom Feul.. Picked up a few bags as I am waiting on delivery of other order.. Haven't used them yet.
 
I forget the brand, but the Lowes in Milford was selling individual bags from an open pallet just inside the front door. I picked up one bag to use in my rabbit's cage.

They had "North American pellets" the other day..hardwood/softwood blend. Have burned a few bags.. Pretty good.. 5.88/bag though
 
I have 4 ton Okie DF and Gold. I bought a ton of Nations Choice as my shoulder pellet. Big mistake. The ash is horrible. After two bags I have to clean the glass and the stove is full of ash. Awful.

good to know.. I bought 2 bags just to have.. I have heard both good and bad about the nations choice. I am still waiting on my delivery of regular pellets I burn.. Delivery truck supposedly broke down..

How is the dust in the bags this year? Last time I bought them (2 yrs ago, I think) when you poured a bag out the dust was crazy. Heat was not too swell either.

It was not to bad. Not as bad as some of the other random brand bags i picked up. Nations Choice was so dusty I has to open a window to help with the dust in the air after pouring a bag in.
