I passed up pellets

[343amc]

Stopped by Menards on the way home to grab a few things and took a detour down the pellet and wood stove aisle. There were a few bags of Magic Sparks sitting there. Grabbed a bag to put it in the cart and it was like grabbing a bag of potting soil. Just a bit wet. All the bags had wet pellets in them based on feeling around the corners. They must have dug them out of a snow bank out back.

On a brighter note, fans, fertilizer and grass seed is in ample supply. Spring must be right around the corner.

I was gonna scold ya. But yep, I'd walk away from wet pellets 2.

It kills me that they have fertilizer and fans out already. Spring can bite me!

Went to bLowes today and they had EVERYTHING SPRING!! No pellets

I got excited even though there were only 5 bags as I hadn't seen Magic Spark there since my last haul after Thanksgiving.

The area where they store pellets in the yard is stocked with treated lumber now. I think box store pellet season is done here. Home Depot and Lowes have been out for a while now. Good thing I still have plenty of stash in the barn.

Which reminds me, I better make a run to HD for another (small) haul of Stove Chow.

Ridiculous. Didn't realize spring came that early in MI.

Reminds me of seeing xmas stuff in my local Walmart the first week in Sept. Guess the store manager didn't get the memo about what season most of Sept falls in.
