I bought 170lbs of 10ga THHN today

$670 including tax

**** me running

I thought copper was going down?


I sure hope your bids include flexible supplies costs, X + mat'ls.

Drywall screws a couple months ago were $2.19/lb., deck screws $15.99
for 5#. Yesterday, drywall screws were $3.99/lb,, deck screws $8.09 a
pound. We need to buy large butt plugs so it won't hurt as much the
next time we buy something, huh?
