Locally, the upcoming winter season pre-buy programs are being received with a heating oil range between $4.73 and $4.78. Some are even offering a price protection for an additional $0.40 per gallon. The latest survey of the local suppliers not only provided me with the range above but also another interesting piece of info. Two suppliers are not offering the pre-buy this season since they believe prices will be substantially lower. They do not want to gouge their loyal customers. Last year I scoffed at the pre-buy prices and ate my shirt. This year I am going to take the same approach since I believe their are stronger indications prices will settle lower than the current contracts show. I might lose again...
