Northern Tools sent me a hard back catalog.

You must be easier to please than me.

A while back I got a $200 gift certificate for them. I had a real hard
time
finding things I could use in the store. Everything looked like Asian
knock
off crap to me. I must be too fussy. Now, give me a McmasterCarr
certificate
and I'd be in heaven.

Some time back, someone here posted a page of Harbor Freight coupons
from one of the magazines. I printed this out for when I might make my
first visit to a HF outlet (Port Huron,MI)
I found the foot operated switch I was looking for, along with a few
other items and, yes they did honor the 20% discount coupon and the
free ($5.99) screwdriver set. A totally satisfactory shopping trip!

Was in Harbor Freight today. Looking at welding carts. Have to measure my
storage location to see if the Oxy/Act cart is to big. Did buy a storage
tube for welding rods, and 3 bug zappers swatters @2.99 each. Cheap enough
to toss when they stop zapping. And a card of miscellaneous small batteries
or $3. Has 6 of the AG3 I need for my travel clock and have been to cheap
to pay $2 each for 3x. Other than that, nothing. But since I do not get in
that area to often, bank acct is safe.
