Coal / solid state fuel bargains

2smiggy · 28-09-2012 1:37pm #1

Nights getting colder again, time to stock up on fuel. I mainly use a stove to heat my house, so coal and wood is what i mainly use.

Dairygold (Mallow / Lombardstown) are doing by 4 bags get 1 free of 40 kg polish coal, €17.75 a bag , so €71 for 5 bags. I have not bought it yet so cannot comment on the quality of the coal, but any coal i bought off them last year was fine.

If the price was right and not too far I would travel for a ton , so any other deals welcomed

What is Solid State Fuel?

Really cheap hard-drives.

I highly recommend this place for anyone near the border. http://www.cappertrading.com/pages/viewdetails.asp?ID=4&Item=42

The turf isn't as good as the Mullingar stuff but coal and block prices are unbeatable. I think they also sell that smokeless coal for anyone in Dublin who can't have a coal fire.

Last winter they were doing 10 bales of BNM briquettes for €29.

Web site not connecting for some reason. Will swing by over the weekend and check.

Probably,dont know what he has comming in each week,as I dont really know the man that well.

Its my mates father who lets me know,as hes into the diy and energy effiecency stuff,like myself.:)

They burn lovely for me,I set the stove and the airwash system to around half way and they burn lovely and give off great heat.

I also burn logs with the briquettes from 2 rather large felled trees that I was given for free.

Connacht Gold buy 10 40kg doubles get one free works out at something like 13.60 a bag that way, they give you a loyalty card and punch it when you get each bag so you don't need to buy 10 in one go. Also 3 BNM briquettes for 10 euro.

[edit]actually may be cheaper than that I'm always getting other stuff at the same time.
