    Whalen Industrial Storage @ Costco - unfortunate change

    Some 6 months ago I bought this excellent Whalen Industrial Storage rack. I am a proud owner of it, as it is of excellent quality, 2000 lbs/rack capacity, and is made in USA. The box and rack have stampings of Chicago Ill. I believe I paid $188 for the unit. I've visited costco again to see...

    Sears Black Friday Ad

    Here is Sears BF ad. Very very mediocre, absolutely nothing I would consider buying. They have better deals regularly, so I think Sears is just trying to take advantage of people who think are getting a deal because it is BF... Their ad is a million pages, so I'll just attach the ones with...
