Calor at Go-Outdoors

[Tom G]

Went today to find Go-Outdoors, as of 18th July no longer agents for Calor Gas. In the past have always swapped bottles here, but clearly no longer. I wonder why that decision was made? Ah well now searching small local suppliers/ petrol stations, many who hold just a few bottles in stock. Doesthis mean more business for Flo-Gas I wonder!!

Hopefully. Calor has had the market too long, and been too greedy.

My local B&Q has changed from Calor to Flogas since I was last there - maybe about a month ago.

Must be a corporate decision as my local B&Q in Leeds have also changed to Flogas

[Tom G]

Yes, Costco are selling Flogas lightweight 'garden' bottles at their Reading store.

Why not make the swap to Flogas?
Probably cheaper in the long run.
Flogas is cheaper than Calor especially if buying from fuel stations and the like.
A 6kg REFILL, not new, is £48 near me now. Glad I only use it for the garden BBQ

I paid £32 this week for a 6kg Calor refill at a local independent store.

My local Flogas also does autogas at 90p a litre… which is under £20 to fill a 13kg bottle

What are people paying for a 6kg Flogas??

£31 on last refill. Getting another tommorow will update if it's gone up since last time.

 

[starquake]

Just rang them and it's £32 for a 6kg propane (red) exchange. So it's gone up to same price of Calor (RRP), but of course no-one sells for the Calor RRP these days. Picking it up at lunchtime!

We’ve paid £37 for 11kg bottles for a while at our local shop

£37 for 6kg Calor this week from our local guy.

Yeah our "local" Calor is £36 at moment, £32 at the independant small store that we know always sticks to RRP. However most calor stockists (due to lack of stock) seem to be marking up the 6kg (and smaller) bottles.

Flogas is now equal on £32, but far easier to get, as theres no need to worry, it's ALWAYS the RRP on the flogas website.

I got 7Kg for £12 the other day on the way ba ck down from Scotland. I can't imagine why anyone persists with exchange bottles unless usage is minimal.
