Hello Brethren,
I haven't been on this forum in a long while due to, well, life!
I have been recently searching for Wicked Good Lump (Weekend Warrior Blend) in the Chicagoland area and it seems that it has run dry. I have contacted the company, and it is available to order. If you purchase online, its about $32 a bag shipped to your house (you must by in multiples of 2). The next way of ordering is by pallet. I am attempting to coordinate a group buy and purchasing a pallet (or possibly two) with pickup in the western suburbs of Chicago (Downers Grove). Each pallet containing appx. 40 bags. The total cost (with shipping) comes out to be a little over $18 a bag. I am asking for $19 a bag (because I hate coins - so I rounded up). Still pricey, I know, but better than online, and for reference, I just picked up a bag of Rockwood for $26 a bag locally. So, maybe not that bad.
I am ordering this Monday, Feb 27, and the company claims it will be delivered by the end of the week ( I will keep you posted). I know its a quick turn around, but I am ordering one pallet for sure and up to one more if people are interested. I am just looking at least for people to split a pallet.
So if you are interested in participating please just drop me a PM via this forum and include your name, location, phone number, # of bags, and email address. I will reply to everyone confirming their order and status updates as the process moves forward. In the unlikely event there are too many responses, I will take the orders as I receive them by email and post here when it is full.
Just a note: I won’t be ordering more than two pallets due to my having to pick it up at a shipping terminal, and it will be enough trouble breaking down and offloading two pallets of lump into my trailer by myself, let alone many more pallets. There isn’t a volume price break again until you purchase 4 or more pallets, so my pricing should be accurate.
I am going to post this on one other BBQ forum I frequent in hopes that enough people are interested and place an order.
Individual pick up will be in Downers Grove Illinois area as soon as the product has been picked up .
Thanks for reading. Any questions, just PM me.
