We paid $1.50 / gallon (2007/2008 season) for propane. How much were you paying?

We anticipate a price lock-in by September 1, 2009. Until then we are operating on a cost-plus basis, so our price currently fluctuates daily by supplier and region.

Price per Gallon on 6/2/2009:

Club East, Dallas-area:*

$1.4634

Original Club:

$1.60

Blue -- Original Club; Red -- Club East

Because of the "upside down" market in the 2008-2009 season, we didn't lock in, but we're still saving 50 cents to $1 on each gallon we buy.

That's $100 - $200 savings on a fill-up of a 250 gallon tank!

(You can easily save twice your residential membership fee in just one fill-up.)

Lock-in

There was no lock-in for the 2008-2009 winter. Both suppliers felt the market would be drop, making a lock-in counter-productive; they were correct. We anticipate a lock-in by 9/1/2009 for the new season**.

The Current Plan

HILCO Propane and Ferrellgas have agreed to sell to us on a "Cost Plus" basis. The price may fluctuate daily.
Our new "club year" will run from September 1st through the middle of August ... we will only have 2 weeks of the year where we do not have a special price, instead of 3 months as in the past.
We expect prices to return to their normal, somewhat predictable pattern by the end of summer. They are already considerably cheaper than last summer.
The "keep-full" restriction of our program will be strictly enforced. You should always check your tank, and call your supplier when it gets low. However, our provider always has the option to top off your tank -- that means more efficiency for them, and savings for us. Anyone refusing a top-off will be dropped from the club, with no refund of membership fees.
Please review the conditions of membership.
