HEHEHEHEHEHEHEHHEHEHEh!

Touche~

:laughing:

Although to be fair- the database link was present in my coupon post too- for the internet savvy

Do I get any credit? I asked the original question on coupons for the Lynxx tools? . That’s what opened this bag of worms.

Yes, you get credit, but don't try to spend it at HF.

Ok. I do like my new Lynxx blower and pole saw.

Or you can "save to list" (upper right corner) and build a list of the items you want.
I save to list then print that as a PDF for when the internet doesn't work at the HF (happens some times).

I usually find the coupon(s) I want, then save the image to Photos on my phone before I even go in the store. I've lost internet in my local store, so I don't tempt fate.

Long term update on the Harbor Freight 23 gauge pin nailer (#60241): We bought this for my wife's craft business and it's become an indispensable tool. She's driven between 75,000 to 100,000 pins with it, and it works with 100% reliability. She oils it daily. It's her favorite tool. They're cheap, so we bought a backup unit, just in case, but the second one just sits in the box on the shelf. The HF pins are also of good quality and very inexpensive (box of 6000 for about $5).

IMHO, it's one of the top price/value items at HF.

O.k., you get credit too. :salute:

PhysAssist, Rock Crawler and Rick all get HF credit. roposetoast:

Anyone else?

Success has many fathers; failure is an orphan. :laughing:

I got this brass hammer for a few dollars several years ago. I use it all the time. Couldn't ask for better. I just checked HF, they do not sell it anymore. But it is available elsewhere under the Tekton label for about $20.

That reminds me- A few years after we got married, my M-I-L and F-I-L moved in with us for a while [too long- but that's another whole story], and one day, after I finished sweeping up in our living room and kitchen, I came back in and found my M-I-L sweeping, and my SWMBO standing chatting with her.

When I asked what she thought she was doing, she said that she was sweeping- so I of course, said that I just had- to which she replied, "Well then, you obviously don't know how to do it right..."- and laughed- my SWMBO laughed with her- I didn't.

Last time I ever swept in the house... [at least while my outlaws stayed with us...]

Eventually, my SWMBO asked why I never swept any more, and I reminded her of that incident, and that she did't speak up in my defense, but instead laughed.

Long story shortened- now that we're home alone again, no matter what household chores I do, she thanks me for them, and never complained about my methods or efforts.

When I know that I'm going to HF, I just use Chrome [on an Android phone], go to HFQPDB.com, open the coupon in a new tab, and use a long-hold to get "Open Image in New tab"- then they stay resident there unless I completely close my phone down before I get to the store.
