Midwest (OH, IL, IN, WI, MI, IA) 2014 Early Buy - Green Bay, WI

[Former Farmer]

I had picked up one ton of the Dejnos softwood blend just before Christmas for $253.50 from Fleet Farm. They are just about as good as the Uncle Jed's softwood. Good heat, just a little more ash. Only had room for 1 ton or I would have gotten more.

Fleet Farm has them on sale now for $5.49 a bag. They also have a marketing gambit where they'll give a $10 discount code you can use at checkout for your phone number and email. I just bought a ton.

 

[Former Farmer]

For anyone interested, Fleet Farm has $50 off $300 purchase or $100 off $500 purchase. Coupon code HAPPYFALL24. Good until October 16, 2024 I believe.

I was at my local Menards in Johnson Creek, Wis., the other day. They had Somersets for less than $5 a bag. That probably includes their 11% store credit; I'm stuffed to the gills with Peak softwoods so I didn't look that closely. Still, a decent deal for this time of year.

Good price on Somersets. If I an ES shop was closer to me I'd be in for 5 tons.
