    No, but I found a couple of C206 camping gaz cartridges on offer at my builders merchant recently.
  • This is a high risk strategy for experienced investors only to consider.
    Add in that it's not only very high risk but this is little more than clever gambling a similar method to what the hedge funds have been losing millions with over the past while.

    To do this properly you really need to be monitoring live prices constantly.

    Good luck

    ps you can do the same with stocks, currency, coffee, pork, orange juice etc, etc, etc.

    I missed this thread the first time round.

    Don't forget to come back in another 3 months time and bump this thread so that more people can have a good laugh. :rotfl:

    Although it sounds funny, I don't see why a co-operative of consumers could not create their own none profit gas company and buy gas wholesale :confused:
    Just like shopping clubs etc .
  • Thanks for the negative messages...
    Ive just funded my fuel bills for approximately the next 3 years by using this technique.
    Didnt expect it to pay off so soon.
    Wow, totally impressive, you should get a job with any of the energy companies or large commodity brokers easily with that performance record.
    Then you won't need to save the cold water run off to flush your loo to save money, you can do it just for the satisfaction of helping the environment.

    Like I said, I missed this thread the first time round and the initial post content has been deleted so I've no idea what this thread was about.

    I just had to wonder on the wisdom of the OP coming back after 3 months to bump a thread that they conceded was posted in the wrong forum 3 months ago. :rotfl:

    (in fact the post content was deleted on the same day it was posted, but after the other posts were made - one wonders why the OP has let this matter fester in their mind for 3 months before re-posting ;))
