    I never heard of either of them as well. The Georgia Peach bag said 100% hardwood. I don't know what the Associated Harvest are - I just ran the UPC that the TSC gal gave me on the phone.

    NWP is Northeast Wood Pellet.

    Thanks. Seems like everyone wants a piece of the pellet business.

    Georgia Peach is a transportation company that hauls (among other things) wood pellets. Looks like they've established their own pellet brand, a growing trend these days. The website says they are partnered with Energex so maybe that's what is in the bag.

    It's interesting I hear people saying their local WalMarts are selling at those higher prices and mine is still selling at $219. Not that I'm complaining.

    Not really. I just don't get it. MWP is only 40 miles away, so the freight cost can't be too bad, but that a big difference from what everyone else is seeing.

    It gets better. Look on their website and the price is actually $5.29/bag - plus 7% off if you buy a ton, so it's actually $246/ton. As time goes on, the cracks are starting to show...

    It won't if they are moving them, But they still seem to have stacks in many places. So we have our fingers crossed. Looks like Lowes has sent the first signal. Will HD fire back??

    :confused:
