The People's Republic of RI is not any better. I scored a $25 off coupon on a $250 purchase and buying 60 bags of Maine Choice for $225.00/$3.75-bag tonight! I still have 1.5 tons of Barefoots and need a ton of shoulder pellets. The Green Teams are all gone and the Maine Choice is the best of what is left here at Lowes and HD.
I did get to try 7 bags of Maine Woods and like them a lot. High heat and a bit more ash than the Barefoots.
My "dealer" can't get the Barefoots (they are having a supply issue) but is bringing in the Maine Woods for 2011-2012. I expect to pay around $245.00/ton but fully expect the price of pellets to be UP next year, just based on energy costs (production and distribution) Planning to purchase 4-6 tons and be done for the next two years. Planning ahead!
X2 I am gonna start buying now while prices are reasonable
The rest of winter looks like it should be warmer so 25 bags every couple weeks I will buy from here out!
Might I suggest that you wait a bit to buy? You might score a bit better when the pellet companies come out with their spring prebuy programs, etc.......I dont know this for a fact (well, yea, I do), but I beleive the upcoming spring pricing to be marginally cheaper than you see now.....
As for the company being helpful, Ice, kudos to you! I researched prices, saw that some of those pellets were available cheaper elsewhere, but you made the choice to buy from them evenso, because of their great service and personality.....thats refreshing to hear in a market where folks usually only buy by price only, disregarding all else....
