Anyone Frustrated with the Economy?

Yes the economy sucks and it seems to get harder each year. Scrap prices are down and good thing I have no truck to pick scrap up.

Before last summer I could pick up a lot of metal (ref,washers,ac units and such) and make enough money for food,a car repair and gas money. It went all down hill during the summer. Now we have relocated maybe I can get into it later. But now it's not worth the time to find a old 3/4 or 1 ton truck to haul scrap with.

This coming spring I hope to have a Freezer and a garden so we can put up food by canning and freezing.

Cliff, what are junk cars bringing in Tulsa. Due to a contract I can't tell you exactly what I am getting per ton on cars but it is over $200. They haven't dropped in Stillwater. Car batteries are still good, I just siold 1760 pounds today at 20 cents and that brought in $352.00.
