    Yard loosing money at these prices

    Had a coupon in the paper so made a quick trip. Scrap tin $9 per 100 and cans $.70 pound. Know for a fact the mill is paying $8 per hundred. This guy has 4 yards spread out. I've heard of retail loss leaders but never at the scrap yard

    I would be all over that, if you can get $9 per hundred for tin, then get all you can to that yard ASAP!
