    Nope.

    13 bags so far here, although I probably have one more bag in my future.

    Shouldn't be too too bad. Mine has only been taking off the morning chill for the most part. Just think, in another couple a weeks we'll be shutting it down till fall. ;)

    29 for April. Used 1 more bag this year over last so far. Not bad. Been keeping it warmer at night with the baby and will only use a handful more bags.

    I burned 8 bags in April. I burned quite a bit of wood early in the month and let the oil burner take the chill off the last couple weeks.

    Both furnaces are off now. Supposed to be in the 70s all next week. :D

    14 total. I'm pretty sure I'm done too. 70's all week, lows in the 50's.

    Same here. If this forecast holds, my stoves are officially off for the year. One final cleaning, some damp rid and that's all folks.

    1 Damp rid is calcium chloride, aka ice melt & pool water hardness products. So saves few bucks there.
    2 I'm on fence about cal chloride in stove this year as it attracts moisture & puddles in the receptacle. I have rusted before with cal chloride/ damp rid.

    I think I will use a few paint strainers of white rice this time.
