Went to lowes today to do some shopping, saw a roll of 12/2 going for $97 dollars.

Glad most of my wiring projects are near complete.

anybody else run into this.

Yep, the price of copper has gone through the roof

I used to by 500ft 12 gage for about $18, now it's well over $30. I was just at Home Depot yesterday and 10ft of 1/2" copper pipe is $22, bought the stuff two years ago for about $5. Like you, most of my expensive projects are done
