    $299 for Maine Choice and he's out of stock!!!! I won't even burn the things. I laugh every time I go to Walmart and get MWP's for $219.

    I'm still sitting on 6+ tons so I don't have a lot of room. Once March rolls around with a tax return on the horizon, I will get a little more aggressive with my purchases.

    That's great news! I think $240 may be the lowest price of this entire season so far, at least around here!

    $259 BBS and $269 retailer.

    I'd start getting antzy if I saw $240. Rearrange the stacks and get ready to pounce.

    I don't think $240 is the low. Oil is not going up anytime soon.

    As long as you have enough, Sure hold off for now.

    When they do drop watch the quality. Most tons have been sitting out in the rain turning to mush from what I see around here

    Lowes has Golden fire for $299 and Prestos for $249. Prices haven't budged.
    HD has Heat'rs for $249. No change.

    If they turn to mush, take them back. You'll get an exchange or $. Most of them around here are sealed up tight with an outer plastic wrap. I've never had an issue with those so long as the wrap is intact.

    I'm still not feeling the love in Southern New England. It's still cheaper to burn money as compared to premium pellet prices.
