Why stock up, those disposable are $5 a lb or more at Wal-Mart next to parks they are $12 or more each. It’s 80 cents per lb at Uhaul or tractor supply. Even a swap for a 20# tank at Wal-Mart then refilled into a refillable is $1.2 a lb. You can get 20# tanks at Wal-Mart for $19 then Amazon the refill tool for $6 your first tank refill pays the tool off.

Better yet get a refillable 5# tank from bass pros and ditch the little tanks all together. The 5# are fiberglass they are backpack light and translucent so you can see the fuel level. One 5# lasts more than a 3 day weekend using it for a portable grill, 24” griddle , and two burner stove.

It’s like disposable alkaline batteries vs rechargeable you absolutely will save money over the life span of the product. It’s literally throwing money away to use those green cans. For those that.refuse to refill themselves REI and most sports and camping stores will do.swaps of refillable one lb propane tanks for less than the cost of a green tank too. Refilled tanks are superior technology in every way and they stop Aholes from littering them all over our parks which is a chronic problem.
