Title: sweet tool buy!!! Only till midnight 12-12-08
Post by: Jens on December 12, 2008, 10:17:40 PM
stumbled across this deal on Lowes.com.  If I read it right, it is a one day only sale.   if I had an extra C-note, this thing would be on its way to my house with the big fat man in the red suit.

Maybe some of you can snatch one up.

Cheers

I have a couple routers already... I don't think I'll take the plunge on that one...

;D

Think you may go some other route, Don?

You know, you two really used up all the good jokes on this one.  I'd have to trim the budget a bit to get another router.

Jokes are a BIT hard to come by, phalynx.  Maybe we should TABLE this one for now.  It may go against the grain to keep going and get a little rough. 

All I could do is come close to another router joke.... yeah - I guess we did use up all of the good ones [waiting]

If we don't select the subjects more carefully, this may be the SHAPE of things to come.

That was a one day deal all right. The links dead now, or rather just takes you to the normal front page.

How do we find the daily deal???

Seems they may be MOULDING their promotions after Homer's.

Recently I believe Homer's has been a CUT above Lowely.  Lowely just can't seem to get into the GROOVE.

hmm Possibly if they TRIMMED their LAMINATE prices they could compete.

It seems like every time I have to deal with their returns department, I end up all FLUSH with anger.

Sometimes they try to give you the SHAFT and I find they may handle complaints with VARIABLE SPEED, however the DEPTH of their concern may SWITCH you OFF.

I must stop this... [waiting]

Why do they always seem to GOUGE you at the checkout on lumber.  The JIG is up.  America wants better quality wood for those prices.

What's a matter Glenn?  Can't take the heat?  I have a new kitchen!!!!  d*
