I bought it at the feed store, just a 100# at a time.   Tough _it Charlies will rip you off on the whole corn.  Feed store is a few miles from here, headed towards Belpre on Rt 50.

What is the name of the place, and how far from Parkersburg on 50?

Is there a discount on quantity? I am going to be up that way possibly on Saturday.

Just got back from picking up a ton of feed. Price dropped $20.25 on a ton.

About time, I don't know if it was due to the fuel costs or the price drop in grains.

I'd like to see it drop another $40.00 and It will be the same price when I was getting it in March-April of 08.

$11/50# for grower at the local co-op. $11.50/40# @ Shoppers Supply here for same brand. Shoppers must contract for a 40# bag hoping people don't notice the small print for weight. The bag looks identical to the 50# at the co-op.

That's like every thing else. Coffee, soda, and now even tuna fish. they went from an 8oz to 7oz now to 6oz and charge more. Canned veg use to be 1lb cans, now they are either 14.5 or 15oz. Same can. Canned dog food as well.

 s53 en crooks. ..........and the general public just bends over without the lubricant.

1 board foot measures 12". It won't be long before they shorten the board foot to 11" ....and the US ton will no longer be 2000lbs.

  About time for another "Tea Party" at the very least.  Maybe the whole damned Revolution needs to be revisited.

12" X 12" X 1" . I used to buy it 5 quarters rough cut, but now you are lucky to find it 7/8 and when you plane it it ends up 3/4 and that is to thin for porch swings.

I picked up my ton of feed yesterday and the price I paid for the feed is the same price that I paid Dec. 5th. Seems the price has stabilize to some extent.

Just got back from picking up a ton of feed. Price dropped $20.25 on a ton.

About time, I don't know if it was due to the fuel costs or the price drop in grains.

I'd like to see it drop another $40.00 and It will be the same price when I was getting it in March-April of 08.

How's the feed price around the other areas, up/down, stayed the same?
