Propane

What are prices doing? Should I top off my tank now? Or wait until late summer like usual?

1000 gallon tank, holds about a 2 year supply. Probably down about 400 gallons now.

Around here (and I assume everywhere else) prices are best mid to late summer.

Ditto ! It's always a gamble, especially with what crude is doing. I have always saved by waiting until July, so that's the plan for this year.

Here's a good site to watch prices- http://tonto.eia.doe.gov/dnav/pet/pet_pri_spt_s1_d.htm

I just had our tank filled recently - we only need to have it filled every two years, but from a prepping standpoint I don't like to gamble on being able to get what we need later. And IMO prices on everything will be going UP.

That was my thought too!
