FYI My local wallywart has Stopped selling Medallion and all other Lamp Oils... will try in next county over and see what is there...<<<<

I thought we burned plain old kerosene in our lamps when I was young, this scented ‘lamp oil’ that we buy today is a new gimmick or was about 1950 and expensive too.

LOL, according to this the correct way to say it is “kerosene oil”.

Where do they buy the kerosene for the heaters?

It will be cheaper by the gallon, without perfume.

Yes, we burn plain ole kerosene, the distinct odor always reminds me of my childhood when my grandfather would fill a clorox bottle (yep they used to be a pretty brown glass bottle ) with a dime's worth.. pumped it put of a square metal tank.
( telling my age ??)

mostly I'm just noticing whats sold out / whats gone , etc..

mostly what's gone are customers...
