Example: I did a ticket for a gentleman yesterday, he wanted a dozen 2x4's 8' long. Total with tax was $114.

It doesn’t completely wear off either. I’m still long for my android.
I tore out my deck last fall and need to rebuild. I am really considering waiting until prices come back down.
Right now, you can buy entry level composite decking for what plain old green treated decking is going for.
Are Sheetrock and insulation prices going up also? Need to finish the interior of our garage that we put up last year.
LOL
.In that same area they have a road bike ride that really is a Peloton, about 20-30 riders all drafting and about a 20-30 mile ride. When I get back into 20 mile shape I might try it, rode with them a few yrs ago it's a challenge. Friendly riders just at that next level up of riding, it was fun once you got the hang of it.
They have been, but not to the extent lumber has. Steel is way up, and shingles are on allocation. Things are going to get pretty interesting this summer, I think. Demand hasn't slowed, and interest is still cheap. So apparently people are willing to pay more.
Talked to a buyer for a truck body place last night. Many steel suppliers are going to allocations. You get a percentage of your normal order to try to keep as many people rolling as possible. Friend at Larson Manufacturing (storm door company) said they used to be overtime, but now they run out of materials and hours are getting weird.
You'll pry my Android from my cold, dead hands.
Ok, son had a 7-9 pm final tonight. It’s online, why is there a 7-9 online final. Other classes opened it up for the day and not a specific time.
I have a feeling I'm going to be glad to be out of it come July.
I think I hear the golf course calling me.
Last meeting we had with our likely builder they said that they heard rumors of prices falling soon but had not seen it yet. I am guessing that is wishful thinking?
Coming in to seek some advice / input on a recent issue. Yesterday I got a notice for mail that needed a signature so it was delivered. On the notice the mailman left included address of the sender which was a towing company. I haven't needed or had a tow in some time so I was immediately freaked.
Went to the post office as soon as it opened and got the letter and it was as bad as I feared. Last summer I sold my car. It was my first time selling and the first person to look at it wanted to buy it. So I was in a rush but thought I got everything: I drew up a contract of sale which we both signed and I removed the plates. The one thing I did forget was signing the date of sale on the title but people said that a bill of sale contract should suffice.
The letter I received from the towing company was that my (former) vehicle and in their impound. It was taken in on april 23rd and has an outstanding balance of around $650.
I immediately took my contract of sale to the the towing company which they made copies of and my phone number for when the manager comes in.
Anything else I should do?

That's to get you to sign, so they can lock you in and then say, whoops, guess I was wrong, here is your jacked up bill.
yes and no. We have been clear that we likely won't be ready until at least this fall or next spring and they won't commit to prices until 60 days out from build start so we wouldn't be locked into anything until then anyway. They used to commit earlier but lost their ass on a couple of houses last year due to rapidly rising prices.
