Greene Team has Arrived!!

[jtakeman]

Well lookie here! I finally got some of them Greene Teams at the local Lowes in Torrington. With the 10% coupon $188 out the door. 2011/2012 stash all set!

They had
Greene Team 14 tons
Stove Chow 15 tons
Inferno didn't even bother to count those!
StarLite 15 tons with another one open on the floor.

I also picked up 2 bags of the StarLite to try/test.

Still might get 1 or 2 tons from the local pellet dealers Once I see the early prices, But I don't expect them to be any lower than what I see them selling for now! Possibly more even?

Hey Jay, let me know how those StarLite's Burn? I found a guy close to me that has 30 bags he wants to sell. He wont sell individual, has to be the whole lot. Never heard of them before, so didnt want to spend the money. If they were like Inferno's or Nature's Heat-less.

Full test on woodpelletreviews site and I will post something for you here.

can you post first impression regarding fines in the bag, just want to be sure.
How have they burn through the night?

Burned the GT through the night and temps are identical to Oakenagan and 5 deg or so under Lignetics, in my stove. I will be snatching up whatever i can of theses while they are around,

Schedule for Green Team delivers in Connecticut next week. I bought another ton last night in bloomfield, burn the new batch, they seem to have less ash than the last batch, very hot in my Englander PDV. @ 6.30pm last night them stated that they had 16 tons. I got the following update from Green team yesterday.

I could be looking at over 7 tons if these greene team keep coming, I just cant say no to 189 a ton after coupons,

I could be sleeping on the pellets if i am not careful. I hope they are comfortable to sleep on. hhmm?

Harman Lover 007,
You forgot to add the load that Hooksett and Amherst are getting in. These GTs seem to be available all over the place in good supply.

I only get notified of stores in my area....sorry. Feel free to post info that you have when you get it so others in your neck of the woods will know.

 

[turbotech]

They would be better off calling the store. All of the stores I called let me know what they are getting in this week and next week. Lots of pellets arriving at Lowes stores. Each store had 2 trucks this weekend and next.

That's not the norm. I and many others receive emails from GT when they are shipping. That is the info we are sharing....after taking care of ourselves first though!

I was told every one in West Hartford was rich and didn't need to burn pellets.

Not yet, but I'm getting close. I called Lowes in Salem, NH and they confirmed they're sitting on 30+ tons of wood pellets (mostly Maine's Choice and Green Team).

 

[Augmister]

YOU ARE ALL PIGS ! EVERY DAMN ONE OF YOU ! And proud to know ya 'cause it takes one to know one!


On a more serious note, it was just reported that the Saudi's opened fire on their own people during a protest.

PIG OUT

 

[Pellet-King]

Stopped by Bloomfield Lowes to make sure they didnt sell my load, well they didn't so i bought a bag of Greene Tean and saw Inferno's and a fresh Ton of Somerset's!!
Secretly opened the plastic cover and scammed a somer's out, they are def shorter than the team's and my stove LOVES Short pellet's, make see if i can swap for Set's, burning next 2 days will determine the winner....too bad it's warmer out.

 

[jtakeman]

Hey Jay, let me know how those StarLite's Burn? I found a guy close to me that has 30 bags he wants to sell. He wont sell individual, has to be the whole lot. Never heard of them before, so didnt want to spend the money. If they were like Inferno's or Nature's Heat-less.

Hey Dex, I finally tossed them in the stove. Heat seems OK(237ºF), Fines we OK. Lots of long pellets in the mix(Much more than 2%) Some over 2 1/2 inches! I'll post all the results on woodpelletreview site once I finish burning and tally.

Pictures for proof.

 

[smilejamaica]

lowes prices just went up to 249.00 a ton in bloomfield but they had a few tons of somersets . i had to buy 10 bags to check them out wish i had time to buy a ton before they are out
