    The trouble is that term "Prepared". People see the price, but have no idea what Prepared means.
    People may laugh at me, but that's ok. I laugh all the way to the bank.

    Yeah, this is the yard paying $120/ton for frag feed / shred. This will get the yard busier then it normally is. I get there when they open at 7:30 before I go to work, so I miss the busy times.
