I may be needing another 200 or so feet of garden hose for a
work project. Might need the hose two or three times a year,
for use during the day.
Should I buy the cheap $7.97 lengths of 50 feet from
Walmart, or get the braided nylon good stuff for 14.97?
Don't want to go 100 feet, that's too clumsy to handle.
Since the hose is used one or two days a year, I'm leaning
toward the cheap hose, it won't get much use. And won't be
out in the sunshine for very long. The expensive stuff means
more credit card debt.

I mean this in the nicest way, really:
If $60 needs to be placed on a CC and carried as long term debt,
perhaps your cash flow is such that you should forgo this
project...unless, of course, the project is going to make you money in
the long run.
If you can't afford the hose with your existing cash, how will you pay
for the water it uses or any other expenses related to the project?

Wait, wait, I know this one .........................................
I'm with you, DD.....
I never really knew what a good hose was until the construction company
doing street repairs ran over my cheapo garden hose. *They replaced it with
a Goodyear hose with the heavy brass fittings. *After that, I learned the
differences in hoses, and have never bought another cheap hose. *Of course,
I haven't had to because these don't die unless I leave them out full of
water in freezing weather. *I have found some at yard sales at the
ridiculous prices of $3-$5, and I gobble them up. *I then go to the tire
store and get free rims,
One can get free rims at a tire store? Seriously? I'm looking for
some way to store one of my backyard hoses & don't want to spring for
a second cart.
Please advise. Tx

and mount them on a piece of scrap pipe, making a
neato hose holder, particularly any you can find with a hubcap.
AND, there's no CC debt dilemma or guilt...........
