I have a 1,000 gallon propane tank (which I own) buried in my back yard (in PA). I have about 300 gallons left. I can get a delivery of 500+ gallons for $2.199 per gallon (last season it was $1.799). I’ve gotten it as low was $1.199 a few years ago. Then again, we were told energy prices would necessarily skyrocket, weren’t we? I was going to wait for the price to come down a bit, but I guess that’s not happening!

That might happen during a mild winter, but this winter has harsh. Then when they get too low to wait any longer, too many people are trying to refill at the same time. Price spikes.

Can you shop around for the best price among two or three vendors ?
Our gas comes from MFA Propane (Missouri Farmers Association) a cooperative.

I should add, $2.50 is not out of line. Folks in Northern Minnesota are looking at $3.49/gallon and could see $4 by the end of January...
