Coal

Well with winter truly here and the price of oil sky high its time to light the fire.
Whats the best price for a bag or two of coal?
I know Dave's gala in Balrothery is €7.99 for a 20kg bag.

I was paying €16 last year for a 40kg bag but recently found a coalman for €13, can get you his number if you want.
Plus he calls to your house which is even better

Thanks.

Got a leafletin the door for Balbriggan fuel depot. Ordered two bags of 40kg smokeless for 16€ each. Polish and anthracite was 15€, and there was another there for 12 or 13 quid. Delivering tomorrow.

Corr's in Balbriggan has 20KG bags very cheap. I can't remember the exact amount but I'll be calling out there in the next few days for some more. Might be as low as 6.50 a bag. I've a strong preference for the 20KG bags. Those 40KG ones are just a bit unwieldy until there's a bit gone out of them.

7.60 a bag in Corrs. 15.20 for two bags (a total of 40KG).

There is a thumbs-up icon in the bottom right-hand corner of each post. However this is only available when you have made a certain number of posts - I can't recall how many (possibly 15 in which case you are not quite there yet)

EDIT: Clearly a minimum of 10 posts required;)

Anybody know the best coal prices for the balbriggan area?

Ugh. Got shafted by C&T's last night. Flippin' 12 euro for a 20KG bag. :mad:

bcmf · 12-12-2010 01:35PM

'Flippin' 12 euro for a 20KG bag'.:eek::eek:

Jaysus. Will find out from Harfords if he will deliver. Where abouts are you based?
If he doesnt and you are stuck I may throw a bag in the car and drop it to you.

Khannie · 12-12-2010 03:27PM

Thats really very decent of you.

Thanks for the offer. I just left it late last night / didn't realise we were running out. I'm definitely going to head out to your guy before Christmas though.

Corsendonk · 12-12-2010 03:32PM

Why dont you just ring around get quotes and get a bulk delivery from whoever delivers. Its coal it won't go off stacked in the garden in bags and I seriously doubt we will get spring this soon!

Balbriggan Fuel Depot deliverd 2 bags all the way into my bunker. No fee or grumbling. The coal is a grand burner too.

bcmf · 14-12-2010 12:49PM

Ok was down at Hrafords and he is indeed selling 40kgs of Polish for €12. I asked him about delivery and hmmed and hawed saying prob not worth his while for a bag or 2. I have his number if anyone wants.

Legend. Thanks.

Corsendonk · 14-12-2010 03:49PM

No one delivering coal in Skerries these days?

PaulD77 · 15-12-2010 03:51PM

Ive just ordered off Bissets from Balbriggan to deliver in Skerries and he said he will try and get out to me tomorrow.
€15 for 40KG bag, I ordered 2 plus a bag of slack. No idea how much he will charge for that.
Sparkles did send me a number, but it says it is out of service

chughes · 15-12-2010 07:33PM

I got 4 25 kilo bags of Polish coal for €38 at Whites Agri a few weeks ago. It's a drive thru so I presume they don't deliver.
