In the market for a 30# bottle
Just found a leak from my propane bottle. Dang, had it tested about 2 years ago. The leak is below the neck, at the factory weld. Going over my pre-trip checks and smelled it. Soapy water proved its location. Dang.
Where's a cheap source for another 30# bottle? I need it by next weekend.

The local propane places only like sell it.
I gotta check out the local big boxes. Also there's a tractor supply store nearby.
Also, here is a CW about 30 min drive but I never looked at tanks. I can't believe they'll have good prices.

As long as it does not leak like the one you posted it is a better deal all around.

No Costco. The local RV guy wants $80 new, 35 used. I saw a new one for $69 and 12 year inspection.
I was hoping to find a sweet deal somewhere.

Menards is probably going to be the best deal if there's one close to you. Their don't say "Save Big Money At Menards" for nothin. I LOVE Menards, if I'm not there once a week, they call me to make sure I'm ok!!

Try a local RV dealer parts store. They sometimes have trade in or unclaimed special order item around. Tractor supply sells them but check website for 20% off coupon first. Pretty common to have coupons available.

Got one today, $101 filled. I wish it wasn't just before a trip, but glad it didn't happen during the trip, or worse, caught fire.
