To be honest, with postage it is only marginally cheaper than I am paying at the moment.
I travel a lot with my work, company car and company fuel card, and therefore easy for me to search around the country at no cost to myself.
I have no intention of staying in my current base location for too many years, and until I settle somewhere permanently, I am not prepared to invest in any large quantities.
But thank you for the link and it could be useful to some here, who don't have as many options.

Thanks for the replies.
The burner we have does make a noticeable difference to the temperature in a chilly room, it's also a lovely visual effect inside our home at the moment.

So therefore, I personally would not recommend it as a necessity resource unless you have a supplier of large quantities locally, or have the ability to make your own.
But, its all about resilience, and having one more option is certainly useful.

Re: Bio-ethanol burner
I believe they claim to be the cheapest online.
Does require a large order to get the benifit of the reduced price.
Also, like all internet shopping, someone has to be home to receive the large courier delivery.
Unfortunately I travel a lot and would have to take time to stay at home. I have in the past done this, and I dont find the small cost saving worth my time.
But ideal if you have family/friends to take the delivery for you..........

Re: Bio-ethanol burner
I'll be honest. We have just been doing a reserve and check with our local B&Q with regards to the quantities of bio-ethanol we require for now but given the pricing structure above I may need to rethink my approcah.

Re: Bio-ethanol burner
As a way of getting a cheap bioethanol "fireplace" i have looked at a few chimineas (probably a bad spelling of it), and there are some cheap ones going at B+M, cheaper then the internet, a bit homes and gardeny, but still ideal enclosures for the existing tins that I have, now all i need is rocks to hold the tins in place.
Some people say that all good things come from God, and I would agree, but also some great things come from B+M and 99p Stores.
