Harbor Freight Again...

Son sent me this for he knew I was at HF. I should be ashamed for it says only one freebie per day but went twice. I had a doctors appointment so the Wife and I stopped and each bought a caster wheel for my chair and used 20% off coupon + a free flashlight. Then went to doc and ate dinner and went back to HF and each got another caster + 20% off and free tape measure---I know what your thinking--how does he sleep at night? If Harbor Freight goes broke it is my fault... But I got my chair fixed and it rolls a lot better!!!---Tee

I'm going to HF next week to get an LED light bar for one of my small Kubotas with a coupon.

Will take it out to the car and go back inside to pick up the wiring/installation kit with a 20% coupon.

Will end up with a couple more flashlights or DMMs in the process. I give them away to friends.

I've stopped at three different HF stores in one day and easily used coupons. They were on my way home from a jobsite so it wasn't out of the way.
 
I got a dozen of those tape measures and lights.
I take the wife and my granddaughter when I go.
Give the granddaughter the thing I want to buy; a light; the coupons; and $20.
Teaches her to buy things; count her change; all while I watch over her shoulder.

Next weekend is free pinch stick to pick something up with out bending over.
I like them when mowing to pick up sticks or toys in the yard.
 
I was told farmers and mechanics do not acknowledge each other at harbor freight same as Baptists do at Hooters and the liquor store.
 
That reminds me we had a new Harbor Freight open the middle of January and I haven't stopped yet, never been in one.
 
I have a few Harbor Freight tools... Not a lot, but a few. I got a $15 face shield from there for when I use my DeWalt angle grinder. That was a good investment to not get peppered with crap in the face. And I got a bearing race installer for my WD wheel bearings (the fronts, of course).

Also got a Pittsburgh 1/2" drive breaker bar with the nice handle. And a set of of the (made in Taiwan) metric and standard impact sockets to use with it. Have made good work of stuff on my old WD with this stuff. I bought a Stanley for the 3/4" T-handle drive though.
 
When the wifey and I go to HF, a 42 mile drive; we shop together, but check out separately. She gets her stuff and the 20% off plus freeby's and so do I, when I check out after her.-----Loren
 
Those lights are handy as a pocket on a shirt. I have several. I have seen a lot of the tape measures, volt meters and other HF giveaway stuff for sale at swap meets and tractor show flea markets
 
Last June the kids and the Wife had a birthday for me out to our pond and the had a farmer Olympics and I gave my accumulation of free H.F. freebies away as prizes. You can see the meters and screwdrivers in the back of my buddy. Gave 41 freebies away---Tee

The free lights have a new design,only one LED instead of the multi LEDs ones. They seam to work better(what the heck they are free)
 
I always wear a mask when I go into HF--I use to say The Chinese buy my soybeans so I'll but their tools-but now??? I'll see you in church in the morning-Baptist???---Tee
 
Lutheran! And yes I will be there...if it rains. Going to work early in morning but will be home in time for church.
 
I was in a Harbor Freight for the second time in my life two weeks after I got the new knee. Pushed the walker down every isle scoping the place out but found out I wasnt ready to do that much walking. I’ll be back in that town next wed-thurs and plan to go back to take more time to browse.
 
I kind of like their colored sockets. When the eyesight gets weaker, it's easier to find the right color from the tray instead of trying to read the small print for the size.
 
We have had a Harbor Freight store for years, and TSC, but there will be a Northern Tool opening next month.
 
I frequent them when I need something they sell...yes the current marketing gimmick for just about any commodity for sale is to price it out of sight and put it on sale.....for what it should have been listed in the first place, or more.......along with running out of nines......$1.99,99,99,99......oooooh but that's a totally different mindset than $2.

Seriously, don't overlook those LED lights in the blue case. I bought several and they have 2 modes, flashlight with one click of the button out the end of the device, and flood out the front as you see in the picture with a second click. On the rear is a large hook that allows you to hang it in a convenient place.....then the lumens from the flood are way up there making for lots of great light......worth your pocket change.
