I was just pricing lumber for a new deck at Home Depot last week. 16 foot 6x6 posts, $44, that sounded pretty cheap to me.

That’s what I paid last year but most of the treated Lumber is yellow pine from the south not Canadastan.

Yes, but was it made in China? Recently I needed some 3/4 inch premium finished plywood, the worker at Home Depot helped me in getting some sheets, and he told me he was amazed that it was $24 a sheet, because they were previously selling for $40 a sheet. The new $24 stuff was made in China.
