Hey Dan,
Welcome. Nice to see another WI guy. I grew up in Marinette and own part of a coffee place in Green Bay (Perky Cups on Mason St.), but I live by Seattle now.

The prices look reasonable, but I have no idea what the quality is going to be. I'm new here to so no help on the bag or shrinker. I am in the same boat.
