    $6.99 a bag at Shaws in Sanford, Me. You can get them 2 miles down the road at TSC or Walmart for $4.18. Crazy price!

    A cord of wood at a $1 a piece could get pricey.

    $7 a bag! That is still cheaper for me to burn them than LP. But that's a lot harder to swallow than $3.50-$4.17 a bag.

    They're not even Super Premium pellets. No wonder they are closing, that's like a 50% mark-up

    Who's closing?

    The Shaw's, well a lot of them likely should close. That price is one reason, but then they aren't in the pellet supply line of endeavor.
