Anyone else going to lowes on black friday?

I am not going anywhere near the stores tomorrow. Mrs Pilot decided tonight that she wants to go to Bush Gardens. I suppose she wants to visit her family at the gorilla enclosure. Cracker Barrel at 0800, pre-flight at 0845 and in the air at 0900 promptly. I will shop online this year and avoid the hassles.

That's pretty funny about the family visit. Just my luck this year I have to work on BOTH of my jobs, so I won't have the opportunity to go to any store until after 7 p.m.; at which time it's pretty much over. But I'm thankful that I have a job.

I plan on going there and checking out the Werner platform. I wanna see if it gives me enough reach to get to the center of a suburbans roof. I I feel it doesn't, I'm going to pass

Even if its at a great price, I don't need tools that won't be used

I'm going to pick up a shop vac to replace the one I bought from Home Depot last black Friday since it is giving me trouble. They've also a drill bit set I'll probably pick up.

It might not give you what you are looking for unless you are pretty tall.

I got it to be able to reach the center of my tundra and I can BARELY hit the center with the tips of my fingers. I am about 5'8" for reference. I would assume my tundra would be similar height (maybe a tad taller).

^^^ lol yeah no thanks! I will gladly pay the extra 20 bucks and buy it at my leisure.
I can see it now... So how did you get the compound fracture on your left femur?

... I just had to get the wii for my kid, they would have been devastated if they did not get it. It was so worth the fact I will never walk right again. Would you believe I saved $20!!!!

... so what you are telling me is your setting your kid up for failure in life because they will not learn the concept of "we do not always get what we want" and "life is not always fair" thats great parenting. Oh and lets not forget the bloody bone sticking out of your leg that was justified by a stupid piece of plastic that cost value is probably $15.

Shop vac 29.99 14 gal 4.5 hp

halogen lights 29.99

Platform 19.99

Wine chiller 49.99 (gift for the girlfriend)

Claw attachment for shop vac 10.99

tool cart (from wally world) 19.99

I spent as much as I saved, second in line, waited 30 mins, about 50 people, everyone was cool, nobody got trampled on, everyone there got what they wanted.

I say I made out pretty good.

I liked the lady who fell and lost her wig. Before getting up she put it back on and everyone was stepping over her the whole time.

I avoid stores this time of year. Normally I won't step foot in the mall and other stores until end of January or February. People go crazy of these sales but if they pay attention they can get the same deal or better at other times and no crowds.
