    I think it's worth popping over the border, it was €11 a 40kg bag last year. I paid over €17 a bag locally last week :(

    seen on facebook a place called Jonesborough fuels (:eek:) seem to be fairly cheap. I'd go there myself if I wasn't too lazy to load/unload the bags etc.

    fellow posters just got polish coal in the Ardee Fiiling station , South of the town for €14 a bag (40kg), and it appears to be of top quality. He appears well stocked with doubles and English coal, but it comes to be the cheapest in louth area that I have seen.

    Thats a good price, I see King coal off exit 20 on M1 are doing 5 bags of polish coal for 67 euro, works out at 13.40 a bag if my brains working, :) only catch is you have to collect but its a good deal too......Ardees closer though so might drop over there....

    that king coal is great stuff, head up every year n get a pallet between a few of the family.
    theres huge difference in quality of coal, got a bag of coal over the border n threw it out - it just smoked for hours. get a sample bag b4 a ton bag- or let someone else be guinea pig!!

    I'd agree about testing coal out. There is a lot of poor quality coal about. Some smokes without heat, others are full of stones, and some give out fierce heat but burn out too quickly and burn out the grate as well because it is not designed for domestic use.
