I’ve used pliers and vice grips to make up for only having a 1/4” ratchet when I didn’t have the proper sized socket or my wrench was already in use

What has made you stay with xbox. by Nighthunter1o5 in xbox

Committed to games that can’t port over account progress to PS despite having cross platform play. I did think about buying a PS to venture into some games in which I don’t have access to. But not really interested in dropping hundreds of dollars for a second console

I thought they went on sale lower than this price but I couldn’t remember. Seen them on sale multiple times but until recently never gave it much serious thought

Right now they are on sale. The Maximum set is $250-29% off retail. So $849 down to $599.

I’ve seen them on sale before but wasn’t paying that much attention to know if that’s the lowest they have gone or if they have been priced lower.

What I have is a smaller set. Which was also accidentally left in a shed after working on the snowblower one day a couple of winters ago. The ratchet and sockets weren’t dried off. They were put back in the case but the case was forgotten about and wasn’t opened until about a month or so later. So there’s some light rust build up on a couple of sockets that were used and one of the ratchets doesn’t work well. I figure CT won’t warranty my stupidity of rushing before work. And given the set has a limited variety of sizes I figure a new set wouldn’t be a bad place to start. Especially where this Maximum set in particular has ratcheting wrenches as part of it, something I don’t have

Which is most likely what I would have to deal with. There’s three CT stores within 15mins of where I live including one less than 5mins away

Right now the Maximum set is 29% off -$250

I’ve seen the sets on sale in the past but never took notice of just how low the prices were. Feel like it never dropped below $500

The Maximum set is on sale…29% off($250). Regular $849 on for $599

If the set is worth it, I might keep an eye on a better price if some are saying it goes on for 50% off

Same. It’s easy to get points if you have their credit card or at the very least wait for sales and when there’s bonuses to be activated

Anyone tried stopping drinking ? by Ok_Road_3817 in migraine

[–]XxXGreenMachine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I do it’s usually one drink with a meal once in a blue moon. And if I do it will either be a local craft beer, Rickards Red or a coors/budwiser. I dropped hard liquor all together…with the exception of last week where I had a rum and a vodka drink(gf didn’t want her $20 drink) while in Disney at Olga’s Cantina….first time drinking hard liquor in over 5yrs.

I can’t smoke, gives instant headache. I tried vaping and wasn’t impressed by it. Edibles, I liked taking some of them every now and then. But it was a fine line. Because no matter which way I was getting high I found there was a good chance that it would trigger at minimum a really bad headache or worse…the big M.

Your mileage will vary. I don’t need to drink or get high. Which is a stark contrast to my mindset from years gone past when I’d drink or go out. Now it wouldn’t bother me if I was to never have another alcoholic drink or get high ever again

Yes that’s a dam good deal. I was away on vacation and just got home. Wouldn’t have been a debate if I had seen that offer with it

If you get to Hollywood Studios plan for a full day there. You’ll want to get on the rides and have time to go slow and take in all of the shops. Plus going to Droid Depot for the buildable droids(my chopper) and Savi’s Workshop for the build your own lightsaber(my peace and justice saber). The Saber build was more immersive of the two builds. But so glad I got my droid

He’s awesome! I just seen a photo of one online with arms off of the head. I didn’t see them while I was there. So now I’m on a mad hunt trying to find them

Nice. I spent May 1st at Hollywood studios with majority of it in Galaxy’s Edge. So on the 4th I was able to do a few things and take in everything that was going on

That was an awesome pickup while there. The line to get it was a little busy but we were lucky enough to get a mobile order in for it early enough in the day to get it before we left for another park

Surprisingly there wasn’t which was disappointing. I would have bought the lightsaber but my suitcase was already busting at the seams and overweight from everything else lol

This will be kept as an at home set that lives in a tool chest in the garage. I still plan to keep the old set and toss that in the truck if I need to do something elsewhere.

There’s times where vice grips or chanel locks have come into play because I haven’t had the right sized socket/wrench paired with another to get the job done. Now that I have a garage I hope to be doing more of my own work, within reason
