    :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    The only place I've seen Vermonts, which was a couple of years ago, I paid $7/bag, so $6 is fairly reasonable to me.

    I already love this place! I seem to remember them having a supply issue a couple of years ago. The folks who ordered early got theirs first then it was hit and miss whether they had them or not. They have no issues now! I just went by there and it looks like they just got another delivery.

    Greetings ChandlerR from a relatively new pellet head - nice to see you here. :handshake:
    :cheers:

    I seem to recall reading they were doing Bulk supplying, (under contract to a few large schools / institutions at that time), which had caused retail sales to be constrained, when we started burning in '14-15. .. I think it was in one of the local VT magazines that I saw it.

    I have 6 bags of LaCrete and 3 of Crabbe to burn. Really hoping to not need more than this for the season but not counting on that.

    After that I have 3 ton of LaCrete nicely re-stacked in the basement and 1 ton Crabbe all wrapped up in the garage. I dont want to burn LaCrete too much longer and dont want to open the Crabbe double wrapping until next year-garage gets humid and moist over the summer.

    I guess if I come across some FSU, MWP or other decent mid level stuff maybe pick up 10 bags just in case.
