    Thats pretty good..

    What did you incinerate?

    I indulged in Monties & AWFWP - all month.

    Tossed in SC yesterday & its not as hot as the elites & i can already tell ill be knocking something out of the burnpot before i hit the sack tonight. - I stand by my comments of SC, it is predictable & will get the job done.

    But hot damm (pun fully intended) ... I got spoiled last month.

    It reminds me of the first time i tried really really really good bourbon. My buddy poured it for me & said

    "taste this.. This is what everything is like for rich people." ( we are not)

    I figure about 42 bags. Burn about 1.5 bags a day and glad to have them in the garage.

    Dog if you still need pellets TSC got a shipment of Minute Man today. I saw about 20 tons over there just now. $5.39/bag. They're ideal for the shoulder season.

    Edit: they also had about 2o tons of TSC horse bedding pellets :whistle:

    If you go down there with the 10% off your entire purchase coupon and combine that with the $10 off per ton they automatically do you could get a ~$230/ton deal. HA HA I'm such a penny pinching old goat.
