Yard prices around here locally, have gone up about 50cents per pound since Dec2010. Avg around $3.50 for Bright/Bare, and $3.30 for #1.
Rumors are there are places paying around $4 ,but I haven't found them yet.
If anyone knows of a better rate than $3.50 per pound for Bright /Bare, please let me know where they are. I am in SC, but it may be worth my while to check it out.
Thanks!
