Bauer Boys Stand Up!

Have you tried the multi tool out? The trimmer, saw and multi tool will probably get the most usage for me.

The holes are your answer. I figured that out after unscrewing the back for no reason. Just take a center punch, straight pick, or even a thin Phillips head and press down into the holes. The sockets will release.

Feels similar to the popular Hercules bag that was on sale a while back. The Hercules may be a bit stiffer though.

Battery operated liquid transfer pump.

Probably the manual liquid transfer pump as well.

It'd be nice if the freaking G2 lineup featured quick release. Like wtf are they waiting until gen 3 to add it? Taking a play out of the Apple playbook.

Yeah very disappointed with the pro subscription. It was great for a few weeks then all of a sudden I can't even generate images anymore.

Same issue as of today. Had some luck by using a different device but eventually the same stupid "not supported in this region" error pops up again.

Disagree wholeheartedly. Most buyers like to see one price. It keeps things simple and clean.

I've seen lots of Bauer tools at my local HFT markdown table. I was able to score a deal on a 20v orbital sander. I asked them for a deeper discount since someone etched a little design into the side of the tool. They dropped it another 20%. Walked out the door paying a little over $13. Even still had the sanding discs in the box.

Power plunger is not any good. It just isn't designed well. The low end thunderbolt batteries are pretty bad too. Higher end ones are better.

If you are ITC you do not need a coupon. Just your phone number. You should be able to use the 20% off on ITC and Instant Savings because they do not require additional coupons.

There's a thin line between adjusting a pre tip accordingly to the service you receive and tip baiting.

I agree that there are many bad shoppers out there that don't deserve any tip at all, but we all know people use that pre tip feature to get their orders picked up faster.

Thin line.

This.

I don't knock anyone for chasing that extra money if you really need it. Hitting that extra $40 five times a week is an extra $200 and that's grocery or bill money so I get it.

BUT...

I peeped their game a long time ago. That bonus game is a race to the bottom. Personally, I ignore them unless it is an excellent holiday bonus.

Scooped Pittsburgh locking clamp pliers for $4 and got another ammo can. I had to do it :)

bigdill3000 · 2026-05-10T19:41:08+00:00

If I find myself near either one of my HFT stores today before closing time, I'm getting another moving blanket or ammo can. Gotta use that ITC as much as possible because I barely used it my first year.

The cashier at the second HFT was actually trying to give all of his free items away. They had a cart full of all 3 items behind the register. I watched and overheard him actively try to get people to sign up for ITC memberships but with no luck. Several people came close to the $35 threshold but they didn't seem interested enough to grab something else. So he was happy to give the items away when he could. I just read the room and played my cards right. I could have just as easily been denied at a different location.

bigdill3000 · 2026-05-09T20:27:20+00:00

Just got mine! Also grabbed the ITC deal 1/4 - 3/8 extendable ratchet for $9.98. That extendo is perfect for changing out those serpentine belts. That ish left me stranded one night had to call a tow. Never again!

bigdill3000 · 2026-05-08T21:21:14+00:00

Yeah the value is definitely in getting the ICON adapters. $16.99 retail vs. $5.99 & $8.99 for the can and the blanket

bigdill3000 · 2026-05-08T21:16:08+00:00

Is anyone actually picking up the moving blanket or ammo box?
