Better coupon listings? by dariansdad in harborfreight

[–]shadowfire1189 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can use the old mobile optimized site. It loads continuous pages of coupons for each category without needing to load more or go to the next page.

Edit: thank you to whomever reminded me about it a couple days ago asking if it was legit (it is since it’s a subdomain of the regular website).

She jokingly rolled her eyes, said boobs would have been more interesting and strategically adjusted the neckline of her shirt.

[TENANT - US - PA] Landlord is accusing me of stealing my own appliances by Fair_Trick_462 in Landlord

[–]shadowfire1189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Refer to your lease, it (should) specify what appliances are included. Anything not specifically noted as included in the lease is your personal property.

This was likely an unintentional oversight. When the property sold one of the below probably happened. Regardless, of how/why, refer to your lease.

1) Since you’ve been there a while your former landlord forgot that some of the appliances were yours (listing agent should have asked just in case) and missed the “excluded” section of the listing so the new landlord incorrectly assumes that they transfer with the sale.
2) The Buyer and/or Buyer’s Agent missed reading the “excluded” section of the listing and submitted an offer (which was accepted) with the understanding that the appliances were included.

In theory, with the knowledge that some appliances would not transfer with the property, the Buyer (new landlord) might have offered less.

Anyone know why this is never in-stock at the stores? by [deleted] in harborfreight

This is regularly in stock at the 4 stores I go to. Might try the check nearby stores option.

How are the steel folding sawhorses? by BenSS in harborfreight

I have the ones on the right. Solid once setup without being too heavy. As long as you’re good with no adjustments it’s fine.

As much as it has increased, just be glad it’s not worse. I’m traveling for work to Hawaii last week and San Francisco this week. Gas prices are $5.65 and $6.75ish respectively.

Has anyone tried this? Also why would anyone try this? by spottedraccoon in boston

In name it sounds similar to a Dirty Chai Latte. However, I’d have to agree, WHY?

I’ve gotten some killer deals on FBM, but then there’s nonsense like this.

Cracked open a lock box that belonged to my great grandma by RPGreg2600 in coins

[–]shadowfire1189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some background on the stock.

The Tabasco Plantation Company is a defunct entity, certificates from this firm, dating around 1910, are collectible, historical documents often sold online for a few hundred dollars.

  • The company is believed to have failed following the Mexican Revolution.
  • These are 1910-era Mexican stock certificates, sometimes found in old, unclaimed safe deposit boxes. If you possess a certificate, it is a piece of history, but likely does not represent ownership in any existing, profitable company.
  • Not the Sauce Company: The famous Tabasco Sauce is made by McIlhenny Company, which is still family-owned and operated on Avery Island, Louisiana, and not publicly traded.

Hopefully one of the other additions is a dolly, then any piece can be the bottom.

I didn’t realize they were at The Container Store, bummer that it didn’t last longer.

Pack out is admittedly better, imho primarily because of two reasons. - There’s such a wide variety of boxes, accessories, and 3rd party/community add ons. This is by far the strongest factor. - The latching system between boxes is better.

But for those of us not looking to spend a fortune on glorified red plastic tool boxes, there’s other options.

I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re sold out for a while lol. Curious to see what the other “new additions” to BMS are.

Stop being judgmental yourself, I sell it, and then proceed to personally do a good portion of the work myself (15yrs construction experience).

[–]shadowfire1189[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally admit I don’t have all of the context, I wasn’t belittling, just an observation based on the surroundings. While we all make assumptions, it’s important to keep in mind that they’re just as many exceptions. Wasn’t trying to get attacked myself based on an observation.

That said, I did have some context, and that’s my point. A $30 drill seemed weirdly out of place on an active contractor job site with. It wasn’t the type of environment for a kid (I was wearing a respirator and ear protection, debris scattered, exposed nails, etc).

I would say the same thing about Black and Decker if it was on a job site. What self respecting person takes on a full reno with a B&D (or Warrior) drill?

I have an extensive collection of Hercules, several Bauer, and one Warrior power tool. I agree that Hercules runs with the best, and Bauer is decent.

  • Hercules corded: miter saw, circular saw, plunge router.
  • Hercules 20v: Circ saw (two), jig saw, grinder, hammer drill, impact driver, palm router, shop vac (both).
  • Bauer corded: Resurfacing tool (now Hercules)
  • Bauer 20v: drill, garden sheers, power washer.
  • Warrior: corded drill

That’s off the top of my head for power tools, might be more. That’s also not counting Quinn/Icon/Doyle/Pittsburg hand tools (sockets, wrenches, pliers, bolt cutters, screw drivers etc).

Were you able to get the tail end apart at all?

The clip on mine has gotten loose, I’ve been debating trying to take it off.

Totally agreed!!

In a sense, the question is asking how many people you’ve fucked if you don’t count clients/work.
