    TSC in Millbury told me today that the price less the coupon is $249.

    Since it is July and I only need a ton I am gonna wait till the fall before getting any. It will probably cost me a bit more then but that is not worth running out to take advantage.

    Projected price was approx. $239/ton. So anywhere close to that is good for me. $249 - $25= $224 is just $10.00 more than I paid last year. I gladly stash 3 MWP(or better) at that price.

    Will those Timber heats/Pure Fire weren't half bad in my heap.

    I think that $250 is going to be the low water mark for our area .

    Appears that is what they want lol.

    This is why I am adding a shed to my yard. The pendulum has swung back to making more sense for me to buy 5-6 tons from my local pellet house.

    That's just it now, it seems the going rate is in the $250 range which is starting to get very close to the "boutique" priced pellets.

    not really though, all pellet prices seem to be up this year, and that's at our cost......even the "boutique" pellets are above what they were at last season......and I wouldn't expect prices to fall for the fall, but hey, sometimes Im wrong! :loco: :crazy:

    So far, I've seen maybe a $10 increase at the boutiques where as the BB's seem to have taken at least $25-$30+ ton increase BUT that is near me ymmv.....

    I agree....the last time I burned the TH, not a bad pellet. If they have 100 tons in stock, I think I'd be starting my winter stash stock-up now.

    Sitting on 2.5 ton right now , got a 1/2 ton of Energex free with the new Harman picked up a 1/2 ton of Barefoot last week , Steve and I are splitting a ton of LaCretes which we have to pick up . So that puts me at 4 ton and I think I need 2 more having 2 stoves now , plan is to replace as I burn early in the season when everyone is flush with pellets sooo :whistle: if there should be a shortage my azz is covered :thumbs:
