Just bought a bag of Diamond green back (because I can't get ahold of any Black Gold right now). It went up yesterday. Thursday I could have bought 50lbs for $20.00, Friday I paid $24. I might as well go back to feeding Iams. Diamond's "ok", but it's not $24 worth of ok.

I just don't think you can beat Black Gold. Looks like I may have a couple of leads to get some -- I just need to slot the time to do so into a 55-hour work week, lol. Makes ya wonder why I feed them at all, I don't have much time to run them. :(

yep...shelled corn is 8.45 a bag now at CO-OP but ive got ur anwser on why it jumped so high so quick-----They passed the bill so they can make gas to burn in ur cars out of corn so anything with corn in it will be going up higher and higher more they make of this stuff and they did this to take so much presure off the need for oil ;) So just cause one bag of dog feed hasnt went up doesnt mean it isnt getting ready to any day now :nod:
