Now all I have to do is find a company that offers a cap price. Mine only offers a fixed.

We locked in at 2.69, higer than I wanted, but it includes the yearly maintenance to the boiler, and makes it easier to budget.

Just called for a delivery for tomorrow at 2.00/gal. Tank at 5/8 full but want to keep it up. Gary at Boston Fuel in Everett I believe has been VERY good to us. His cash price was always lower than what I expected last winter.

 That's cuz the parent company (see ticker SGU) is teetering on the brink of financial collapse.  |

Petro charged me 2.59 yesterday. The cheapest local "Little Guy" was 2.23 yesterday. Petro's contract price was 2.83 yesterday. If the reports that the Little Guy cash delivery prices will exceed 3 or even 4 dollars/gallon this winter are true, perhaps a lock-in in the 2.80s is cost effective. I suspect that the big conglomerates like Petro are behind these "reports". Gas was "predicted" to go over $3.00/gallon after Rita and as we know, not only did this not happen, it actually went down. |
