    I got my tanks filled the first week of June. .97 a gallon

    Called yesterday and it is now at 2.38 a gallon. Almost exactly 2 1/2 times more!! :mad:

    What address do I put on the thank you card? :whistle:

    How much in your area?

    I haven't bought any in a couple years but I think it was right around $1.75. My neighbor said he paid $2.60/gallon last week.

    I should add that I don't need it thanks to the wood; just keeping an eye on it.

    LP always seems like a rip off!

    Don't deal with Suburban Propane!
    They're crooks!

    I paid 1.69 (easy fellers) a gallon mid September. It’s at 3.69 a gallon right now. Demand always drives up the price in the winter. Fortunately we only have to fill the 500 gallon pig once a year. The previous home owner didn’t rely on wood heat and paid the gas man 1-2 times a month throughout the 6 month heating season. 100-400 a month! Sure makes firewood pretty appealing.

    I just hope you are not with UP Propane…. I’ve heard they are out of gas… and so are some of their customers….

    I have a small tank for LP around100 gallons. I have heard it called a "pig". We use LP for cooking and a small gas heater in our basement we run once in a while. Last fill for that was just over $4 per gallon. The less you use the more you pay per gallon.
    What a rip off.
