I'm keeping fingers crossed copper will fall back down. I was pricing out some heavy gauge wire last year for a project and passed because I wasn't ready to work on it. Now I'm kicking myself for not pulling the trigger.

A shower elbow at HD is $6.95. Double what it was a year ago. Then again, HD has slowly raised the price on everything since most competitors closed.
