LOL, but in all seriousness, this is a hell of a deal and more than $100 off. Home Depot selling 8 foot studs for $3.35 right now, and when you "spend" the Menards rebate, you don't pay sales tax on the part of the purchase made with rebate check. So in my mind, this is about $143 off of $343 worth of studs.
And in my experience, you should only have to check about 20 in the pile to find one even remotely straight!

ALL stores require you to pay the full tax on the original purchase. The difference is they either send you a check you deposit in your bank or it acts as a payment after calculating tax on a subsequent purchase (e.g. gift card).

So while you can think about it as getting your tax back from the original purchase, regardless you are saving the tax on one of them, unlike any other store with rebates.

But you pay sales tax on the initial amount, which you wouldn't have in the first place if it were a direct discount on the item. So that makes the sales tax on the amount a wash (if you end up using the rebate). Not a extra gain

Menards Rebate suck. There are so many restrictions, has to be used all at once, has to be in-store, has restrictions
I don't know of any restrictions on the rebates other than you can't use them online... I use partial rebates all the time, and have never had any restriction applied...

Years ago Grossmans wasn't allowed to get rid of crap lumber, so their entire inventory was crap after a while. Since they couldn't get any more as long as they had enough in inventory, they effectively got out of the lumber business. And now they are gone completely.

After Sleepy Joe inflation the past two years I am forced to live in a shied right now.

Applause
That was always the plan. Ever wonder why the phrase "Make America great again" is so divisive ? I guess some want the conversive.

The Lumber industry spent a year off and during that time home building prices went up due to the lumber shortage for over reacting to covid, Then the over spending on covid gave us higher interest rates. That was all predictable and a part of the plan. It had to all be on purpose because if it was not it was because of incompetence. Either way America was not becoming great again or ever again all by design.

I would like to build a shed or a chicken coup but 13 inches of snow on the ground does has not motivate me yet.


My hunch is there will be a price correction going through the industry. It wont be pre-covid prices but with in 15% I would expect, or hope.. Plywood was simply out of hand..

if you only need 1-4 you could probably fit it with the trunk closed, over the arm rest towards the front windshield. I think we did something like this when we just bought a few to replace some rotten planks on our deck.
Can confirm for 06-12' RAV4, have done it dozens of times

Nice but I need 2X6 for my new crib (she shed) so I can squeeze in more R value (insulation). Sleepy Joe going to give me some energy credits on that there insulation and heat pump.

Right there after he finishes cashing those Hunter B checks for that Xi balloon he popped to look big.

Done a real good job of taking his time as that hot air balloon went from Alaska to the Carolina's looking in on every she shed owners windows to makes sure that we are still buying all that made in China stuff.

All is good in the world though as that chicken coop out back is printing Benjies with these there egg prices so I replaced my golden goose with platinum hens to get a big screen for next Sunday's game with them proceeds.

Thanks! I never knew and never thought about it.

Sadly, I think i need 2x4x10 ft for basement though. The height to basement joist is about 8 ft and 10 inches from ground.
Double top and bottom plates?

I never did any framework or even wood work. I will read on them.
