Well if you bought Repsol for 13.30 i imagine you are young and strong enough to pick them up yourself. Time was when i could but i dont mind paying an extra 1.50  to have them  delivered and put exactly where i want them.  Call it a propina!

Go to your local repsol garage and get a new contract 3.65€ and then on top of that you pay for the price of the gas

Don’t get ripped off paying 10€+ from people selling empty ones

Thanks, Borders open out of Sorbas now,  nearest Repsol within reach.

I had a bottle of butano from Cepsa (aluminium bottle) delivered to my home this week.  They and Repsol (orange bottle)  both do home deliveries.  I use Repsol for cooking because we rent our house and they came with the contract.  I use the aluminium ones  for our heater...

... in the lounge rather than sticking to the central heating all the time which is electric and expensive.i paid 15.90 for the bottle this week and i have never found them more expensive than the orange ones.  They are all more expensive in the winter, the best time to buy is the summer when they come down in price. 

I pay €13.50.for orange repsol bottles at the back of la casita cafe

Finally got a spare Repsol at the Arboleas petrol station, after lot of fumbly Spanish, the bloke answered in excellent English. 3.65 for bottle, 13 something for gas. Previously bought a cepsa bottle in Sorbas at 24 euro plus gas, then bought another at zero euro plus 16 for gas (going price at cepsa here). 
What can I say...... But we're gassed up now, thanks to all

Yes that’s fine the silver bottles are lightweight. The orange bottles are regulated by the government so the price is the same everywhere the silver bottle prices vary depending on we’re you buy them. But they contents are the same ..

Obviously it would depend on how much hot water you use and how often, but on average, how long would a single bottle last?
