I shop at both sites.QVC & HSN...Today I needed to buy the Ninja Pellets for my Ninja grill.Sinc I bought the grill from QVC I went there. They had them and it was $19.99 for a 2lb bag. I added it to my cart.However I know HSN sells that same Grill so just out of Curiosity I went there to look and I was amazed to find the same 2lb bag for $15.99.That's $4.00 cheaper and the shipping was only $3.50 as opposed to $5.50 on QVC. I know that they are SISTER COMPANIES...But this is crazy. I bought them on HSN and instead of buying 1 I bought 2

HSN & QVC operate as separate entities, each with its own president, policies and procedures.  Yes, pricing may be different.

Ninja isn't the only one making wood pellets. There are several other brands to check out at other retailers.

You can find pellets at many other retailers for far less money.  Any flavor combination you can imagine.

@Alexa6352 last time I bought some I got them from Kohl's using a 30% off coupon. 

 

I'm not comfortable with the thoughts of using pellets from other companies. Ninja pellets are solely used as a smoke enhancer. Most other company's pellets are burned as a fuel source so who knows what combustibles are in their make up. I realize they both impart smoke so it may all just be something I shouldn't give a second thought to, but I use so little at a time I don't mind using the Ninja brand.

@Etoile308  we have a pellet grill from Rec Tec and we buy their brand pellets from Amazon in a 40 pound bag.  We have used other smoker pellets, but Rec Tech pellets burn the longest.  

 

If you're interested, Amazon has the Ninja pellets...20$ for 8 pounds. They come in 4 two pound bags.  Lot better than qvc or hsn.

I would buy pellets elsewhere too--they are all the same!! Have heard others especially on YT say they do the same thing---my brother owns a Trager and buys pellets where ever he sees them. Just a scare tactic.

I know it tastes good, but smoked food isn't healthy to eat. I stopped eating it many years ago b/c I don't need to take the risk.
