Propane & gas grrr
I just ordered 100 gallons of propane. The man said the total is going to be close to $300, $300 and has to be paid when he comes!! He also said that is providing that they don't have to do a pressure check or it will be $50 more. I still have fire coming through the heaters, I don't need a pressure check and they are trying to say that I might. I told him that if I can show the delivery man that fire is still coming through will they still charge me? He said maybe not if I can prove it but, he is not sure. I am going to mention weights and measures if they try. We have already been questioning if the correct amount is put in when we buy propane.
OMG $350 for propane that I just bought 3 weeks ago as well?! I love winter time but, I am ready for it to be over...this stuff is too high and 100 gallons could last me nearly all summer but, since I heat my house and water with propane I have to buy it. Dh worked on getting the $$ together all weekend to buy this propane to find out we might need $50 more. I have $340 sitting here and I hope like heck they don't charge the extra $50 and a delivery fee. Something has to be done about the prices or something has to be done about the limits you have to purchase (no less than 100 gallons at a time). I wrote an article in the newspaper and it didn't help squat, they still refuse to work with anyone so it was a waste of my time.
Doesn't help that we have to spend about $100 a week in gasoline so that dh can go back and fourth to work, we rarely go anywhere else because, of gas prices. We need a gas efficient vehicle. I just love how there are problems with liquid/natural gas in the economy but, the big names are profiting billions a year and gloating about it. :cussing: :cussing: :cussing:

It has been a winter where it hasn't been a lot of deep snows, but we have had lots of little snows ~ expecting at least an inch of snow tonight
