Anyone who uses Blue Rino or similar..prefilled tank exchanges..is a
moron to begin with.

Agreed. They're certainly not cost-effective.


Find a filling station with the propane bulk tank and simply get the
****ers filled. The new bottles (tri-sided valve top) takes 4.5 gallons
to fill.

Blink blink..its hardly rocket science.

Ayup. I looked at the price of an empty tank and a fill, then at the
Blue Rhino tanks and immediately bought the empty and had it filled.
It cost an extra buck to purge it. No brainer.


Im paying $3.25 gal for propane at my usual spot.

Which is $14.25 for a fill up.

NOT the $25 Blue Rino wants for an exchange.

I haven't refilled since the price went up, so I'll likely pay more
than $8.25 the next time, huh? ;(
$14.95 last November, $9.99 a week ago, twenty pounds both times.
