Global warming is driving the prices up-"Al Gore"

Holy carp I thought $4.09 was outrageous.

Anything special driving the price? Wasn't there a super surplus just 2 years ago?

The exporting is playing a role.

Glad I have NG for heat/water and I keep a spare full LP tank in case one of the two for my grill or smoker runs out. Seen people get hung out to dry on LP and fuel oil costs for heat in the last few years and I'm waiting for some supply disruption to cause NG to spike so the rest of us get hosed.

Wow, I'm glad my propane tanks are filled. Might cost more to cook a steak on your grill than to eat out

Converted my last grill to NG and bought one already converted this last go round. I BBQ 3-4 times per week. My NG potion of the bill was $48 last month.

Suck it Hank Hill!

Whoa! What company was that?

We only use propane for cooking and as a backup heat source (which we never use). I keep a 1000 gal tank topped off (less than 75 gals usually) every summer when it's cheap...usually near $1 gal at employee price. But, I like the idea of having 1000 gals that no one can get to, the pipeline can't be cut, nothing will disrupt my supply, etc.

One of the (many) things that I don't like living in Aurora for: no large propane tanks in backyards. I'd love to have even a few hundred gallons for emergency situations.
