TSC Fending prices were very poor. I've been buying 4 foot tall pasture fencing (2inch by 4 inch) for the last four years. Everytime I check prices, LOWES has a better price

Ok so if TSC is monitoring this site I have a suggestion- apparently there is no computer POS (point of sale, not piece of XXXX:rolleyes: ) monitoring of stock. In other words when a turboencabulator is sold then order another one TSC:mad:
I sometimes have to go to 3 or 4 different TSC stores to get everything I want for my projects, as they are always out of stock on something I want....luckily my job takes me by 3 or 4, if I was having to do that on my dollar in my truck I'd be really ticked off at 'em:cool:

Visited the new TSC in Merrimac, NH twice this weekend. The store is was pretty busy a lot of people looking to see what was on the shelves.

Some products can be purchased other places for a little less money but they do have a lrage variety of stuff you can not find anywhere else.

My wife even liked the store!

Well, I just happen to have a sales meeting in Nashua Monday and just to save the 75 cents toll I will go up the old route 3 and heck just as well stop in and take another look

LOL
I havent paid tolls in years. (Use all the back ways)
I often joke with people that the Bright Yellow Signs that say last exit before tolls. was put up because of me refusing to pay and had to turn around.LOL
either way i guess the store would be a good place to go and browse. but not to make a special trip to.I think that the net has changed alot of the "specialty" items we buy.even Agway seems to be slipping away from being a full farm supply store.

Well, today i made my pilgrimage to TSC in Merrimack. I liked the place.... definitely short on implements. I was impressed with alot of other things they stocked. Weld-on ball ends, hydraulic fittings, welding supplies, etc. I assume they are open on Sundays (or, are they not??), so where else would you find that stuff on Sunday? Its a hike from my house, but i'll definitely be back soon to browse. I asked the girl with all the tatoos if a guy named Wayne had been in to order his new tiller..... figuring he would gravitate right to her, but no dice. I did get to leave Dougster a message on his new tiller, which was really the highlight of the visit. I've been wanting a new 5' rear finish mower, since i can't use my belly mower anymore. The KK they had in stock was beefcake ! And was only a thousand and some change. Sure would look good in my barn .

Al,
I remember when i was a teenager, i used to think it was the most ridiculous thing that my father would avoid toll roads at all cost. I could never understand why he would add 45 minutes (or whatever it would have been) to a trip, to avoid a freakin 25 cent toll.

Guess which route i take now !

Let me guess! :) Whatever it says, it starts out with the preface: "Now I don't know nuthin' about nuthin', but..." :D

Sorry Scott! I couldn't resist! ;)

You guys are rank amateurs! :) The first thing I did when my GF got her new GPS (which I borrow 'cause I can't afford my own) was to permanently set it on "AVOID TOLL ROADS"!!! I haven't paid Mass Pike or NH tolls since I can't remember when! :D

Well Ductape, I know what you mean I hear it from my daughter all the time.But I guess i should go on to state that I dont like to push my vehicles at the speeds that the highways make you.I enjoy the more country routes and if I break down they arent gonna try to tow me away right off.
It also depends on the routes. the 'old' 3 used not to have many lights and would actually be shorter milage for me. but with many more lights I use the truck route 3A more now to Manchester and then down 93.
Its not all about a few pennys,i enjoy the country ,

Al, I'm with you. The older i get, the more i take the back roads. My mother claims that i've turned into my father. But he was an old fashioned, opinionated, stubborn, pig-headed pollack. I'm nothing like that !!!! ;-)

Hey Scott,

I was there, bought a new seat for the tractor and som orange paint! Didn't put the money down for the bushhog yet. Tough to let the money go up front. Oh and I had a nice talk with the gire with the tatoos. She mentioned the hand was her sons finger prints and that she just liked tatoos. More power to her.

Been having a bit of a problem the past few days with kidney stones of all things so not up to doing much heavy lifting. Hope things will clear up in a day or so and I will be going back to TSC.

Wayne, I wasn't trying to imply the TSC girl's tats were a negative..... just proving i was there. I kept looking at every other guy there, thinking.... does that guy look like a Wayne with a Kubota? But no.... i saw a guy who looked like a Bill, with a Massey... and maybe a Jim with a Deere. Sorry to hear about your stones. My best friend gets 'em occaisionally, and i see what they do to him.

Scotty..... come down here and spend money at our TSC. The money you save on sales tax will pay for your gas, AND buy lunch for Wayne, myself , and you ! Plus... our NH businesses need your money !

Okay just to set the record straight! When I was paying for the items I puchased it happened to be a young girl that is constantly talking and she happens to have one or two tatoos, I suspect she has a whole bunch of them that we cannot see, and during our conversation she mentioned she liked tatoos.

Ductape I was the olde fart singing along with the country music.

Scotty the place is okay, but I would assume if you have been in one then you know the layout of all of them!

It is nice not to have to pay sales tax, but we never expect to here in "Live Free or Die" Land anyway. Funny how we do not pay sales tax or income tax, but we sure make it up on land and toy taxes.

Dougster I am sure living in Mass you know all about taxes and big digs, so coming to Cow Hampshire is sort-of stepping back in time.

I get a kick out of driving down I-93 in the morning and watching the cars pass me at about 85 MPH and they are in the breakdown lane. Warning if you drive in Mass do not expect to pull over and stop during rush hour!

Got to get going have a good one! 47 degrees this morning so it won't be long before the first frost!

I was going to point out that my 6.0L 2500HD (towing my 20-ft equipment trailer to pickup that KK tiller) is not exactly an economy car... but I now see that you are even farther away from Merrimack than I am! :eek: I thought you were practically right next door! :)

Okay... Okay... I bring my own lunch. Just nobody laugh at my "no-name" peanut butter on stale bread sandwich!!! :(
