Super Cedar Discount / Free Samples

[Pagey]

Just picked up 6 Yuengling Black & Tan. So good.

Is that a dog species or beer? lol

Lulz. It's about the best tasting/bang for the buck beer you can get around here.

Just built my 1st fire with 1/3 super cedar and a full load of Birch splits. It worked great and had cat light off in 20 minutes. No more kindling for me, I guess I'll just use the kindling for fillers.

I agree they make fire starting an easy job! I want to try 1/3 myself as 1/2 is a bit much and 1/4 is a bit little..

Maybe you should try 1/6 or 1/8 or.... whatever. Heck, you can throw the whole thing in there if you want. Just cool the beer.

Jus tried a 1/4 SC and I'm a believer for sure! Thanks

This summer I was at a campground up in Nova Scotia. The weather had been cool and rainy, literally for weeks. I watched the neighboring camper struggling to get a fire going. No luck. Just a lot of smoke and fanning and frustration. I went over and gave him a chunk of one of my Super Cedars to try. Man was he grateful! Within a half hour he had a blaze going that would actually do some good. Thanks, Super Cedars for helping me be a good neighbor!

Nice story!

I got my order and ended up giving away 10 of them so far to friends. I believe that there will be 2-3 more orders coming Thomas' way since that. They loved them!

I used one in my back yard to get a pile of brush going that had been sitting there a while and was a bit damp from the day before. The pile of brush is now a smile pile of ashes.

I still have over 2/3 of the 100 box I bought last year. I am so sold on these. I recommend them to all of my fire burning friends & family.

My parents who have burned for 40+ years now solely use Super Cedars as well.

 

[Backwoods Savage]

Hey Treacherous, I have less than that but only because I gave so many away. lol But Thomas has been good and he has a wonderful product. We wish him all success.

I bought 100 too and I have to say they are perfect for this weather with so many fires to start.. Very glad I have them here..

Darn you Thomas . . . I've been using a Super Cedar cut into quarters now for the past few days to light a fire in the morning and evening when necessary . . . and they're just so darn easy . . . do the top down fire with wood at the base, kindling on top and just an itty bitty piece of the Super Cedar and the fire lights up like a dream each and every time . . .

I'm not saying I'm never going to use any paper this winter . . . but I have to say it is really nice not to have the burned up newspaper fall over on to the glass and have it smear it up . . . and honestly the Super Cedars really seem to make lighting the fire easier.

 

[scotsman]

Well, I s'pose I'll try 'em, too. That 100 year old cedar is hard to split into kindling and I'm getting old, so it's 'bout time I got myself into the last century with everybody else!

Bart and everybody else says they're good and I need to break my new stove in right anyway. 'Course I've got a few weeks to wait for it.

 

[Green Energy]

Got an email with the seasonal discount and bought my first box of SC. Received them a couple weeks ago. I should of checked here to great the 15% discount code. But not big deal. Looking forward to trying them later this fall.

Tex and any others here who haven't tried Super Cedars Thomas sends out free samples to try these firestarters (I think you need to send him a PM with your address).. At least he did in the past and it took a couple years after I tried them but I bought 100 this year with a 15% forum discount.. You will love them once you try them..

My bad, I did get the full Hearth.com discount. They have a question about where you heard about SC. I answered Hearth.com. Ding, ding, ding Discount went from 10% to 15%.

Is that great service or what?!?

I'm reviewing the choices for my next supercedar purchase... tempted to "go green" with the no-wrapper kind but I don't know, I kinda like how the plastic wrapper contains the crumbs when I break the disk up. Anyone have any comments on the wrapper or lack thereof? Thanks!

You could always break them up in a large ziplock bag.

 

[geardoc]

Just ordered 100. Gotta have'em

 

[ClydesdaleBurner]

I just ordered 100 "green" ones and then I read tickbitty's post about how the wrapping does keep the mess down when splitting them up. I'm thinking of just using a cardboard shoe box or something and splitting them in the box to keep the crumbs and mess at a minimum. I use a hatchet to split them.

Really looking forward to the burning season. 100 Super Cedar's will make it that much easier!

The list goes on and on about the stuff I've bought because of this site. Tom sent me the free sample years ago and I enjoyed it but really don't start that many fires since the stove runs 24/7 once things get going (which doesn't take long) so have since figured I could live life without them.

Tonight, I said to hell with it and bought a box to have something to play with during the shoulder season.

Even though I have no problems with the way I light the stove, when you stop trying new things you stop learning. Let the experimentation continue.

Thanks for the discount Tom.

It's all part of the addiction Pen . . . I will admit they're pretty handy when you're doing a bunch of fires in the shoulder season . . . not sure if I'll revert back to my paper and kindling days once we're in the winter . . . mostly I figured a 15% discount was just too good to pass up . . . and I thought it might be handy to have a few of these on hand to make it just a little bit easier for my wife to light a fire . . . or me if I'm having a bad day.

Penn,
I live in Southeast Mass. down by Plymouth, Mass.. Does it get cold faster there than here? Curious as I would think it gets colder faster and longer here.. Been too warm to use the stove here lately right now it is over 70 and humid here.. Once it gets cold we burn 24/7 here and I will find out how well the T-5 performs then.. My Large CDW kept up most of the time and the T-5 might have a little more BTU's for the extra cold we get from time to time.. We get a little below zero on occasion in this area but usually for maybe a week..

Ray

P.S. Those Super Cedars are great for this time of year with occasional fires.. You will get spoiled as I did.. I have been using 1/4 of a SC and it has worked well so far..

Looks like just a touch colder here. I have had 2 evening fires so far. My old stove used so much more wood that I wouldn't consider putting a match to it until at least Oct 1. Since this one saves me at least a cord and a 1/2 a year, I don't mind having fires in Sept if needed. Never tried the top down w/ a super cedar so I'm interested to try it. Think the wife will find them helpful too even though she's probably only had to start 2 fires in this stove in 2 years. I would start most of the fires in the old fisher, but since that needed to be started daily she'd probably end up doing at least 1 a week with that.

My town is Carver, MA and is but further inland so I may be a bit cooler than Plymouth which is on the ocean.. What program did you use to make those graphs?

I think you will like the top down fire starting as it will get your chimney warmer quicker plus your secondaries will react faster as well..
