I...So I came late to the party and I have opinions!<br />It is January and a Saturday and I've been loading pickup loads of hay.<br />I do not understand why people with horses wait until the middle of winter to buy hay. Do they really think the price will go down in the winter? Has it ever?<br />Also, no I will not save that exact hay bale for six months. If I attempted to do so you would still be angry at me because after it has been moved 50 times it ain't gonna look like it does now...<br />Secondly, what is with people selling crappy hay for insane prices on craigslist? It was over ripe crap when they baled it with their pathetic little baler and it was crap when they picked it up two weeks later and it is still crap when you have to did though the stack of broken bales for one 25lb bale to put in the back of your Explorer.<br />I guess it is good because I no longer have to advertise. Word of mouth works pretty good and it makes me feel good to hear people tell me my hay is awesome and cheaper and being somewhat amazed at just how much hay I can stuff into a 100lb bale. (it is really 110 but saying that scares people)<br />I feel better now...
