Karl, you've probably got more job security than any of us -

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

All the shops I care about started their sales earlier in the week so my Black Friday shopping is already over...

Got some great deals. Now I just need to get XMas shopping done for the family.

I hate shopping so you won't catch me anywhere near a mall,store. I just finished winterizing my 2 boats and both engines. Friggin rain made it miserable. They said sun and clouds this morning on the weather. I got soaked but I was all greasy and grimy so I wasn't quitting when it started until I was done. Tarp them tomorrow and I'm done.

LARRY you missed the best deal ever. Brand new Dewalt 18v cordless drill, 2 batteries, 1 hour charger. Lowes and Hd both $97. You can't even buy two new batteries for that and you get a brand new drill with keyless chuck for free. I been nursing a dwalt here for ~8 years. One of the best battery drills on the market ever and it's over 1/2 price off. Or you missed the 14 gallon shop vac 4.5 hp with wheels, $29 @ Lowes. They gave me a $10 coupon off on the next $50 purchase. I loaded the truck and turned around I'm no fool. Great vac. Now I got a way to recycle alooominum tillings instead of throwing it in the trash. I spent 50.90 and I got another $10 off coupon on the next $50. They just paid me $20 for buying what was already a pisser deal.
I got paid to shop in their stores.
Shoot your an employee now lookit what you probably coulda gotten off there too
