Sketchy neighborhood. Also, the parking lot for that particular HD is a parking garage. :x

I went to a HD in NJ one evening and was approached by a guy trying to get me to return some expensive items that he clearly stole. I declined. When I walked out of the store after shopping, he was waiting by my truck. I went to CS and let them know. They called the manager who stated he...

My Craftsman V60 string trimmer (model CMCST960) head assembly just came off during use. I removed this plate, which is held in by 4 hex screws, and beneath it there is a hole in the aluminum shaft. I presume this is what kept the head assembly connected to the shaft, but there is nothing...

Ryobi corner cat sander on sale for $29.97. In store you can get the older model (P401) on clearance for $23 (YMMV of course).

This came up in my FB memories today. She was always by my side and I spent many, many hours training and socializing her. Best friend I've ever had. This was her personal record of 20 cookies while in a sit-stay. Of course when I told her "ok!" she got to eat several of those. I lost her to...

Wow, these have really gone up rapidly (like everything of course). I bought this kit on sale for $17.99 on 1/3/2021 (with a regular price of $40.97).

We have a pack of 8 ranging from 30-80 lbs, so we go through about 4 24-lb bags per month.

I have a set of Peltor Sport Tactical 500 that I picked up for just under $100 on sale last year. The battery life with my rechargeables is excellent. They offer sufficient protection for mowing, weed whacking and a day at the range with 9mm/22LR. However, they become uncomfortable in under...

Mount It MI-392 TV mount for $55.14. Excellent mount (I have 2) and the best price you will find on it anywhere. If you sign up for their email list you'll get a 20% off coupon pretty quickly as well...

Last month I discovered a slew of mouse droppings and soon after discovered that several bags of dog food had been chewed open. We keep open bags in plastic containers, but we have a pack of rescue dogs that eat high-end kibble so we stock up when it's on sale and keep it shelved in the...

I work on gym equipment, so I bought the NOCO GENIUS10 to charge up the 6V batteries on commercial cardio equipment. In December, we had a couple really cold days after which my truck battery - 1 week shy of it's 3-year anniversary - refused to start. It wouldn't jump either. Then I...

I didn't really have room for another tanker, but this came up on Facebook today and I couldn't pass it up. This was purchased new by the woman's company way back when. In the 90s they converted the entire office to cubicles and got rid of all the tanker desks, so she took one home and it had...

Haymarket, VA. Kobalt workbench in seemingly excellent condition for $75. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1019912735630386/

Stonington, CT. There are a couple free tanker desks here. One of them looks like the General Fireproofing Co. tanker that I have in my garage. https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/3002407089973714/

Wall Control steel pegboard. Not cheap, but it works well and looks nice. You can bend the tabs on the hooks so they really lock in tight.
