I picked up 2 ton of stove chow at Home Depot in the Pittsburgh Pa area for $ 197 a ton. With my $25 off coupon it came to $184.50 a ton. Just bought the Englander Pellet stove last Feb/March. Haven't used it much and this is all new to me. I have been burning wood for a long time and will still be using my Blaze King upstairs and the Pellet Stove downstairs in the basement to supplement and keep the basement warm.
