Attn Susan - National Military Families Recognition Day

Well bummer! I missed it! LOL I did get one heck of a bargain at the BX this morning though. I was so proud. Found they didn't have much in craftsman tools ... talked to the lady working the aisle "Oh I just took some to clearance in the lawn & garden area." I take Matthew and the cart and book it down there; you know how clearance things disappear in BXs. I get down there and find... DRILLS. We have one of those, no thanks, need NO more. I keep nosing around (just my size hose were clearanced at 75% so I bought a few of those since they're not carrying them anymore :( )

I find this big craftsman box... look at it... Drill/driver, flourescent light, and trim saw. $140 normally, 75% off. I take it and RUN to the cashier. (actually had to ask and make sure of the percent off... thought it was only 50%) Needless to say, my DH got home before I had hidden it, but he didn't want it and I called my SIL. My dear ol' brother now has some new cordless toys of his own this Christmas. :) He works construction and this will be nice. His own trim saw just broke! I can't wait to see his face with this one. :) $35 later and the discount paid for all the things I got this morning LOL
