Man, I don't necessarily find that sander a very good price. But it's neat. Looks like a frankenstein angle grinder with the sander bolted onto it.

I got a creeper seat, a Facom 14/17 obstruction wrench, a small fire extinguisher, and some consumables including high heat nickel based loctite antiseize. Good for 2400F.:FIREdevil Just a buck or two above $200.;)

In for a Rolair JC10 and a replacement 18" blade for my old Patton air circulator. The Rolair came in at $167 after discount, which is pretty sweet IMO.

I hope this doesn't break any rules, but they made the URL of the 12 days of Christmas image really easy to figure out. I've attached what's coming up. If this isn't kosher, I hope someone deletes the post.

I don't think they'll appreciate you crushing their holiday spirit lol. Just checked out their image URL myself, and you are definitely right...they brought this one upon themselves.

Edit: There is at least one typo. It shows the minimum for today's discount as $300, when it's definitely $200. Makes me wonder if any of the other info is inaccurate.

Few of the better deals that i ordered today:

Tillman 850L welding gloves come out to $12 a pair. Local welding supply is $25 a pair
http://www.zoro.com/i/G0130462/

Miller auto darkening lens comes out to $55
http://www.zoro.com/i/G4603401/

Reelcraft 70ft hose reel, little under $200 each
http://www.zoro.com/i/G3294627/

Werner 12ft and 6ft ladders.
http://www.zoro.com/i/G1632601/

I did order quite a few other small odds and ends from them but i feel these are some of the better deals others could benefit from, especially with the free shipping on the bigger items.

Got an order shipped notice already. Good on Zoro for getting it out quickly, didn't really expect it with the holidays and the sale.

Me too. They must have a small army of order pickers working today.

I went a bit nuts...

I finally upgraded my 20 year old mig to a Millermatic 211... Plus, I got a 15 and an 18 gauge Bostitch nailer.

I must stop looking now.

I got some Kee Klamp type fittings for a project and a set of casters.

Ordered by 10am CST, shipped by 2pm CST. Saved $65.

Thanks Zoro.

The fact that they're hitting me with tax (6%) sours this a bit, going to end up getting a few items from Trident because of it once the latter sorts out their coupons.

Like some I also went a bit nuts. :lol_hitti I ordered a new compressor.

This was my first order placed with Zoro. I too get whacked with tax but it is still substantially cheaper than anywhere else. My 'savings' was over $500. Hope everything comes in well.

I'm at the checkout page and they are charging me tax on the full price (not 30% off) amount. I'm in California. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I believe that instant store (not manufacturer) rebates count as cash rebates, so tax is supposed to be charged on the sale price. However, their site is charging me 9% on the original pre-sale price.

Second year participating in this sale. Saved $200 and already got a email saying they had shipped. Even though my items did not qualify for "expedited shipping" that is great service!

It did get deleted, and from imgur as well. I assume Zoro or somebody sent a DMCA notice to imgur. I haven't heard from the mods here, so I'm not saying anything else about the content.

How did you get 30% is it a promo code? Just bought the m18 fuel impact gun for 226 no tax free shipping. Can I get 30 off that?

First time ordering with Zoro. Ordered a Fuel 18V Sawzall bare tool.
Does Zoro have frequent sales or is this a once a year thing?

They screen also showed tax on the pre discount amount during checkout. The sales order that was emailed out hours later had the correct tax amount, I did not have to point this out to Zoro.

Thinking about placing another order before midnight. What else is everyone ordering?

Check your invoice/receipt.

They always estimate tax on the full amount and then charge the correct tax later. Who knows why.

Didn't know the code could be used twice. Guess I'll order the laser toner cartridge I missed the first time around.

I only have one 220 Volt outlet in my garage, for a compressor. Is it feasible just to unplug the compressor and use that outlet for this welder, or is that a lame idea?

I can't even weld, but really want to learn. Is the 211 too much machine for a novice?

The 211 is a great machine for any skill level. You can use it on 110V or 220V.

I think unplugging the compressor and plugging in the welder would be just fine. Also agree with buying the best welder you can will make it easier to learn and easier to find projects to use it on.

In my opinion the better the machine the easier it is to learn.

You can use that one on both voltages?

My brother has my Lincoln 110 on extended loan to work on his Volvos. I bet the 211 is a lot nicer machine than that, huh?

"Honey, I had to spend $800 on this welder! The guys said it will help me to learn quicker!"

I've got this Trans Am project, you know, and rust has long been an enemy of mine that I'd love to be able to just conquer, like that Twertsy fellow and his GTO project!

I haven't bought it just yet...the sale ends at midnight EST?

Maybe I can buy this now instead of an engine for my project and just focus on bodywork for a while.
