With pellets in short supply

[Phoenix Hatchling]

Hi everyone! Just wanted to say that here in Upstate NY, I have not seen a pellet shortage. Last week when I made some calls, I found there are plenty of pellets to be had. 3 Lowes in the area each has 10 tons available with more coming, 2 Home Depots had 6 ton each, my local source had 12 tons left with 10 more coming. Country Max by my work site had 15 tons on the lot with 6 more coming. Perhaps it's because of my location to the manufacturing plants? I'm not sure because I am new to pellet heat (which I LOVE BTW), but I have had zero issues sourcing pellets in my area.

Honestly, all that added up for all locations and future deliveries isn't all that much! Assuming and avg purchase of three tons per client, that would only cover 24 customers. That could be gone within the hour.

Agreed, around here multiple Lowes have been bouncing between dozens of tons and zero all summer long. Right now, out of 6 stores, one has a couple tons of GT Plats (for $7 a bag!). That's it, with no more deliveries at any of the stores expected for the next week.
