So the other day I'm checking out the markdowns at Lowe's and I see
some guy looking at this Hitachi cordless kit. He seems to be
struggling with the decision while I'm lurking behind trying to get a
glimpse of the price. Well, after a few minutes, he gives up and moves
away, and I saw the price was $145. Man I snapped that puppy up in a
heartbeat and bolted for the checkout lane. Here's what was in the
kit:
18v drill
18V recip saw
18V circular saw
18v flash light
charger
ONLY 1 battery
and tool bag
I remember reading "somewhere" that the retail value is $487. I can't
believe that guy passed it up.

Took my son fishing while on a Pioneers camping trip this past weekend.
That was his problem, he couldn't wait -- he was more like washing his
bait and hooks. Type A personalities don't do well fishing. :-) Ah well,
he did have a good time.
that was Alan W's gloat

Forget casting and reeling, we're talking full power drag net.

Since it was missing a battery, did you ask for a bigger discount?
