well I got contract for this coming winters propane and as I figured it's up..  Summer fill $1.85, winter contract $1.95 becuse I own my tank...  yikes and this place has always been the most reasonable around here for price!!! 

so the question is what are you all seeing or hearing for prices??? 
a bad day of fishing is still better than a good day at work!!

About the same. Im getting summer fill, and about 400 gl of contract. It can pay off or it can be a bust or a wash. Vegas has better odds

      Our co-op here in Blue Earth County, did summer fill for $1.89/gallon. No word on our contract price.
I wonder. Does Darth Vader have a sister named Ella? Bet she has her ups and downs.

Just got our pre buy in the mail too.  It is $2.09.  So if the rack price drops we get that price or else the $2.09.  Whichever is cheapest at time of filling.  Like I said propane has to be about $1.79-1.89 or else it is cheaper to use electric when it is off peak prices like we have.

Ya. I am wondering about that too. Going to be $130.00 a cord delivered this winter he said with the fuel prices. Multiply that 24 and it has me thinking.

I had thought about getting one of those outdoor wood stoves but kind of glad I didn't.   Although you heat a shop and a house so that is pretty nice.

$3120 for 24 cord. I am adding propane boilers this summer to do the half and half thing. Run the propane in the fall and spring. Then in the really cold months burn wood. We are heating the house and garages too like LPS said.

That sounds like a good plan JB.  Every year older things get a little harder and take a little longer.
