Building Supply DEALS!!!!!!

Oh dang! I found it on there a couple of weeks ago and it was free shipping, but I do know that some places that sell via amazon don't offer free shipping. It stinks that everything is so high now. I priced paint at Home Depot earlier and about fainted. Lol

And of course, I didn't buy it when it was free shipping.

Yeah, just checked Amazon this morning. The roll they offer is about $30 cheaper than what I can get local, BUT Amazon wants to charge me $35 for the shipping, AND it won't ship for 4-5 days after I place the order. I need it tomorrow. Looks like it will actually be a bit cheaper to buy it local than from Amazon. I'm pretty sure I won't use $5 in gas since the feed store is only about 10 miles from my house. Oh well...it's just money right? and my chickens are worth it!

Lol! I know it! Sorry it wasn't cheaper.

As it turns out, the feed store didn't even have any 36" in stock. I had to drive way down the road to find some place that did have some and they only had 50' instead of 100'. This size must be very popular because the local TSC was also sold out.

When it comes to Amazon, it is well worth it to get a prime membership. There are so many things on there that you might buy regularly elsewhere not only cheaper, but free 2 day shipping or 3.99 for overnight shipping. Their customer service is great re returns (which are also free).
Otherwise, you really have to look around on Amazon as like ebay, there are many sellers who ship at different rates.
This seller has 19-gauge, galvanized hardware cloth dimensions: 36" x 50', 1/2" mesh for $40.77 and only $4.75 shipping fee.
That is the best deal I have found so far locally and online.

Thanks jjb...that is actually the same supplier I found last week but when I clicked to put it in my Amazon shopping cart it told me that the order wouldn't ship from the vendor until 4-5 days from their receipt of my order. Add onto that the transit time and I would still be waiting on it to arrive.
