Default Propane prices?

I usually contract our heating propane (850 gal.) and have normally came
out on top. Well, this past fall they wanted $1.699/gal. to contract and
at that time it was only $1.499 off the truck so I simply topped off
both tanks...500 gal. tank for house and 250 gal. tank for the
shop/garage. As you are aware this winter has been dramatically colder
than normal thus we have used significantly more propane plus there is
somewhat of a propane shortage (real or imagined). I just called to make
sure that they filled both tanks before we leave for Florida next week
and the current price is a whopping $2.69/gal.! So much for not
contracting. :-(

This is in SE Iowa where propane is normally reasonably priced. Anyone
else have any recent prices?


Like Real Estate, with Gasoline, Diesel oil, Fuel Oil, Natural gas, and
Electricity, it is 'location, location, location'.
For me, my last week propane delivery was $3.949 a gallon.
21.1 gallons came to $64.34.
