    Bought 2.4 tons of spruce pointes or lacretes and 2 tons of blazer doug fir. Total delivered $1,358 or $308 per ton. Less than what i could get oakie golds for not delivered from other supplier. They will sit on top of the 1.5 of oakie golds i have left over. Might buy one ton of box store stuff for the fall if something good and reasonable shows up. Noticed that supplier had raised his prices $5/ton but was offering $5/ton off if you took it now. He offered the deal on his power packages also which he didnt raise the price on yet. So saved $20 on them.

    You should be very happy with that choice. Both excellent pellets.

    daff, nice one. When do you find out if you are getting Lacretes or Spruce Pointes?

    I ended up with spruce pointes which i am good with. I have liked them in the past. Now gotta start lugging them to the basement. Let the fun begin.

    but just think......you'll be all set for fall/winter, and be able to laugh at all those other yahoos who scramble for product on the eve of the first frost! Good show in planning ahead! I wish more folks were like you!

    Lol bought them earlier this year as prices seemed to be going up. Might do some bargain hunting as the season gets going if there are any to be had.
