Prices just keep slipping downward. Here's my main non-ferrous guy's prices. I hadn't been there since the winter time and took in some alum cans a few weeks back. They told me prices might fall again and they appear have done so by another 5-8%. I think I'm going to clean up and really get my shop end of the garage organized and binned. Not go out of my way to pick anything up unless its an awesome find, and call it done with active scrapping. I'm just too inefficient to make my own (separate from the household account) spending money doing this here. I'll still check in with you all on a regular basis. Hang tough!!
