I think that is cheap as your going to find them. Walmart is $5.12 per two pack. That was the cheapest that i found.

fleet farm has a 4 pack for $9.49 this week I believe.

That's a darn good deal from what I have seen. Looks like I need to make a trip there.

By an adaptopr for the larger tank on your gas grill, it can be a pain taking out the larger tank but it will save you some money. You can get them at GM...

That's not too bad. Some places are selling theirs for over $3 a bottle.

Not sure I can do this, but the site we all know of that starts with craig.... someone in there from eagan sells them case of 12 for $24. That's $2 a bottle.

I bought a 10 lb. tank, maybe a 5 lb. would be better. You will save enough $ in one year too buy the tank and then some if you fish a lot. If you go this route get a filter that screws on the stove, the adapter screws onto the filter.

I just picked up a 4-pack at Fleet Farm also. Once the ice gets thicker so I am not pulling the house by hand I will have my buddy heater attached to a 20 lb tank. It gets too spendy running the 1 lb tanks.

2.29 a bottle at LM Fleet in D.L. this weekend. I picked up a few:)

Now that I think about it....Gander MTN will match any competitors price if you have an ad. Lowes will match&beat by 10% with print out/ad.

I've never seen those 4 packs anywhere except FF

Think this might be the person I called a while back. If you look at the pictures of the bottles, different manufacturers bottles-I asked him and they are refills. Not going to get into a peeing contest on refilling, but if you going to buy from him, you might as well fill them yourself.

[Pooh]

I refill my own. Its easy.

[dairyman]

me too

[CAMAN]

I refill my own. Its easy.

It's also not legal to transport refilled bottles on public roads...

[Huck Finn]

Where did you buy the filter, and how much? I want to go this route because I don't want any problems with my buddy heaters.

[Whopper Stopper]

Northern Tool has the filter.

I paid about $10. for one at FF.I wish I would have paid a little extra and got the regulated hose, that does not require the filter.

Yeah. You have a good point there. If I knew they were refills, I would've never mentioned it. Sorry I didn't know.

I was under the assumption that they were mismatches but new.

Well.....the search continues.

[Whopper Stopper]

I heard that the regulated hose is green and is very stiff when used in the cold. As a result people use the black hose because it is better in the cold but you also have to use the filter. Like I said...........Something I heard.

[Crappiechopper]

I use a black line with the filter and haven't had any trouble in the 3 seasons I have had the big buddy.

***Prediction...next post will say their heater crapped out in the fourth season. ****

I also use the same as you a unregulated hose and a filter. Unit works great. The hose costed me about $35 and filter about $10. The filter will need to be replaced, in the long run you would be better off cost wise with the regulated hose and no need to buy filters. Northern tool has them on their HSOforum.Starting my fourth season!
