Good god... How did this thread get SO blown OT??? Out of ALL of the people replying to this topic how many here passed the bar exam and are lawyers??? It's a moral issue at best as far as this board goes. I don't know about any other areas, however, MOST stores around here will give you the...

1 thing I did forget to mention about the tool purchases... He had the top drawer of the tool box filled with a varied assortment of tools. You had to purchase $100 of THOSE tools in the box to get a ticket. It just so happenned that I did need some of what he had in there. They are going to...

I'm not sure I understand. He is a SO employee and drives the tool truck here every Friday. He does his various routes 5 days a week.

There were only 50 ticket. I'm not sure how they do it BUT it worked out great for me. I'm sure it would have to be subsidised some how. He is not and independent delaer either, He is employeed by SO. A win is a win! :beer:

Chadster, there is another thread here about people and their experience with the SO dealers. I do have a great SO dealer and we have a great repore built. He shows up, I buy stuff, I pay! He gets his $ and I get more tools, works out great. ;) I can say for sure that I am fortunate to have a...

Yes... I was on a roll that day and spent about $470 so he just threw in the 5th ticket. He was real sly about telling me. He came into the shop and asked to use the restroom. Then he sits the list down with all of the ticket holders names on it and tells me to take a look while he was in the...

It's Friday... The typical day that Snappy stops here at the shop. About 2 months ago he started a promotion, Buy $100 worth of tools and get 1 of 50 tickets for a chance to win a new KRL722APBO. 5 tickets later and he shows up today... I'm now the proud owner of a brand new rolling tool cab...

Just remember... 4X4 is ONLY better than 2WD to get you moving! It seems that ALOT of the people in this area seem to forget... You still only have 4 brakes just like everyone else! This past week that we got pounded with snow here, I have seen more 4X4s wrecked on the side of the road than 2WD...

I'd imagine it's harder than hell to remove snow with them.... That's why he's selling them. :lol_hitti

What year did this happen??? The policeman is still sporting a 6 shooter! Good Grief!! A 6 shooter in a tactical thigh holster... WOW...

I found that I tend to keep the tools together in 'familys' so to speak.... Wrenches with wrenches, ratchets with ratchets, impact sockets with each other, screwdrivers together, pliers and cutters are grouped sepratley in a fashion such as things that grip (pliers and clamps etc.) in one spot...

Not trying to hijack the thread BUT I was on the Snap-On truck today here at the shop... Noticed all of the Blue-Point tools on the Snap-On truck were Made in China.... :mad: Thats enough to keep me away from Blue Point! If i'm spending my $$$ on tools they at least have to be made in the...

Running 12 Ga for the recepticles is fine as long as you have a 20 Amp recepticle. The draw back to running a 12 Ga wiring and 15 amp receps is if some one is ever in the panel and doing some re-wiring. The electrician sees the 12 gauge wire, throws a 20 amp breaker on it and the recep is only...
