Do I want a trailer jack for my little trailer?

So I ordered the thing, and shouldn't have been, but was surprised by
the shipping charges 62.00. That's 12 dollars for an order 130
dollars or more, and 50 dollars extra because it weighs 200 pounds and
was marked " §Truck Item "

I could have picked it up in Fort Worth, but the store is an hour or
more each way from where my brother lives, and probably 10 dollars gas
and 10 dollars sales tax, and it was 40 dollars off what they
laughingly call regular price (I think Harbor Freight marks things up
just so they can mark them down most of the time, but they do sell
everything at full price some of the time.) and the store might just
be out of them when I need one, and I really have to start assembling
the first day if I am to be done in 5 days, and still have time to go
buy plywood, see my sister-in-law's restaurant 50 miles in the other
direction, etc. It has 300 parts!

Thanks for all the very helpful advice.
