[SandburRanch]

Texas gulf coast Mont Belview wholesale is 0.354 cents. How much are you paying?

Some interesting info there...I just ordered a fill from the lowest priced gas co. I could find, 0.699 per gallon cash price plus tax if you own your own tank, 200 gal minimum. For a lease tank it would be 0.749 plus tax. I don't keep records, but the prices so far this summer are as low as I can remember in a long time.

Anyone have an updated price from where you're at? Looking to put about 300-400 gal into my 1000 gal tank soon.

Filled 1000gal. tank a month ago, 99 cents/gal. Lowest I have ever paid. NW Indiana.

Amerigas called me yesterday and offered a .99/gal price. I have a small 120 gallon tank and they filled it in April. Things must be slow if they're calling little customers like me.

WOW!!! And they just called me with a sale price of 2.49. I think I will call around, we have 3 suppliers in this area. And I have my own 1200 gal tank and at 45%

 

[econometrics]

Yeah, this is why I asked. Seems like prices are all over the place right now. Some lower than $1/gal, some above $2/gal.

My Generac has been running 24 hours now after a storm early yesterday morning. It would be nice if the tank is empty enough for at least 400-500gal, as that usually gets a better discount.

I'm in Nevada, near Lake Tahoe, and prices here are seldom as low as some other areas of the country.

Just paid $1.24 for about 600 gallons to top my 1000 underground.

A house down the street, that does not own their own tank and so can't shop around, paid $2.54 per gallon.

Nice! I just got quoted $2.20 for 150+gal. I asked about a price for 500gal and they said they could do $2.

I will be calling a few other suppliers, that's for sure.

You might try the smaller dealers, regionals rather than the big guys. I find they are less greedy. I also offer to pay 'em cash or check on delivery - their choice.

I never share prices from one dealer to another or ask them to meet or beat someone else's price. Just ask them for their best price. I often contact a couple of other friends who have their own tanks and put a "package deal" together.

Good advice, thanks!

I paid 89 cents for residential and 79 for dryer gas last month. I usually heat with biomass (corn and wood pellets) but not this year. Propane would have to breach $1.65 a gallon to be even with shelled corn, $1.89 to be even with pellets. I own 3 500 gallon bottles residential and a 1000 gallon bottle for dryer gas.

$1.06 last week here in Indiana.

0.59 cents per Liter up here. Price is down, but we're still getting ripped up here compared to US prices.

Stay away from the big guys, the small mom and pops family business suppliers are always much cheaper. And when we get hit by very bad winter and we see shortages the big guys are much greedier, Amerigas which is the worst supplier in my area charged as much as $8/gal during the last shortage!

[KevT]

That's why we bought ours

 

[stoyan79]

I rent my tank from a small company and they didn't get me. I used to rent from Amerigas and they did get me every winter.
