Looks like if I'm paying $20 for a 5# bottle exchange that I'm paying too much. Anyone in the Baltimore area have a cheaper option to suggest?
Wine is but
single broth.
Ale is meat,
drink and cloth.

MMike, go to Keen gas on Rt 40 near the Home Depot. Tell the guy when you check out you are a Libation Association member. We have an account with them. Don't remember what the price is, but I know it is cheaper then $20 and the guy told me we have a pretty good discount based on other accounts he looked at, FWTW.

Thanks. Is there a secret hand shake, or membership card I should worry about?

Mike, just saw this. Nothing special...they will look it up in the computer. If you want to look like you are in the know the big guy that is typically there is named Bill. If he is not there ask where Bill is. :wink:

$27 for 5 lbs in Canton GA. But, $3.99 for a 20 oz paintball tank at Dick's Sporting Goods. I just got my adapter in today to use with my regulator.

too much. 20 bucks at a Martinez fire equipment place. Anyone know of one cheaper near?


edit: Guess I could go to Contra Costa Welding Supply in Concord and trade it in for cheaper.
