I just had to tell everyone about it! I went to Home Depot( At the request of my wifey) to get a Tool-box for the house. You know, one of those tall, multi-drawer things? Well, I saw the one I wanted (a red one, that had all the little things I wanted), but it costed $340. Can we say... Well, After talking to the guy there helping me, he points to one at the top level of the risers, and says, that is exactly the same model, but in black, and black has been discontinued in our store, and since nobody wants it, (they all prefer the Red one???) I'll sell it to ya for $150!" Now, I was all over that like stink on sh*t! That bad boy is in my house right now for two hundred dollars less than the red one...and I like black better, anyway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Now, how many of you have ever had such a good experience? Please post below. Also, Who is getting what for Father's Day??? ------------------ Loyal guardian of the OHF Devoted member of the Ironworks Only member of the Elite Bodyguard to Rikard (the fool that takes the bullet) Ertai's back-up Memnoch's chief look-out Member of the Ancients club Witness of the 4,000th post by Cloudposter |

So how often do you use your tools....
I like to buy tools (on sale) especially....always feel like you are walking away with a bargain. But in all due honesty..i rarely use them. |
