higgledy,
Here's something else to consider:
where I live, BJ's wholesale club charges $12.99 to members to fill a 20lb
tank.
I have a 200lb tank at my house that feeds my Hot tub heater and fireplace
gas log; the propane company charges me $3.79 a gallon, plus a 4 buck
delivery charge on top of that to deliver the propane. Other propane
customers pay their suppliers even more. My next door neighbor got charged 6
bucks/gallon on his last delivery, nut he uses much less propane than I do.
Because you bring your tank in yourself, (the 20lb'er) you pay less. Are you
looking to bring the 100 lb tank yourself to the propane dealer to get
filed?
