...And pretty much every other weekend as well! Lol

Of course that doesn't mean I won't stop by as well! :grin

I have about 15 of those blue 27 LED portable worklights and continue to collect them religiously. Since they have a magnetic back I stick them all over the steel lift so no matter where I'm standing a light beam is just a button away. Same thing with the magnetic parts holder.

For me it's the tape measore! I gave away 14 last Christmas, and I still have no shortage. :thumbsup:

It's a real good thing I'm on call this weekend and can't leave town to go to the closest Harbor Freight stores, which are all 150 miles away or more...

Talk about willpower... I drove through the HF parking lot on the way to another store in Fairview Heights, Illinois this afternoon without stopping! :thumbsup:

I dropped a Chevy starter motor on my magnetic parts dish last year which bent it and broke the magnet off. :(

I went this afternoon and used this coupon and got $10 off the ad price of $29.99. Twenty bucks! My old creeper is made of (rapidly delaminating) wood and I bought it over 35 years ago. Time for something a little more high tech. I got a new magnetic dish with the purchase. :thumbsup:

On my third HF Creeper and current one's set of middle wheels have broken
away from plastic.
I don't find these last very long but you can't beat the price.
I think HF has another one with metal frame that might hold
up better.

Carl, how come you get 25% and I only get 20%?
You must live in a more affluent area of the country :)

I wonder if the 25% Coupon code would still work?

BTW, regarding the HF plastic Creeper for $19.95 ... I was in K-mart
yesterday and they had a metal framed Creeper for $23.95.

Yep, that must be it, all the dudes I see in the local Harbor Fright are suffering from affluenza. It was in the HF parking lot that my last 107 got totaled by the uninsured foreign national with no driver's license. This conversation is giving me the creeps.

self quote again to share a picture of how free Harbor Fright coupons never leave you in the dark.
