    My currant clients told me to not bring my lunch tomorrow as I always do, they are dragging me to Lowes Contractor's Lunch.

    what the heck, free hotdogs, and I can shop on thier dime.

    One of our Big local yard has a lunch next week, that is the one that I'd rather be at.

      Husband went to the contractor's free lunch today...No hot dogs here in the SW, but plenty of peppers and burritos...

  3. MSA1 | Sep 14, 2007 03:25am | #4

    I have most of the tools I need, but the local Lowes here has some pretty awesome burgers on the grill.

    Cant wait.

    Who knows, maybe there is a tool or two that I do need after all.

        These burgers were awesome. They came from a local restaurant distributor and even after they were cooked they were too big for the bun.

        Come on up tomorrow, we'll have lunch, its on me!

          I got a postcard flyer about the free donuts, lunch, etc.  I saw you could get a free co2 tank when you purchase the Kobalt regulator kit.  Since my senco airfree died on me, I figured this would be a good substitute.  So I head to the store yesterday evening and look the regulator and tank over.  Notice the product number on the tank doesn't match the ad, so take it to the register and ask about it.  After the cashier made two calls and couldn't reach anyone, she rang them up to see what would happen.  The regulator rang up with a discount and the tank was full price.  It was too good a deal to pass up....the regulator rang up for a penny.  So I bought a tank and got a free regulator.  Beats a free lunch any day!

            I would have sold you mine for a penny. It looked like a good idea at first. I refilled the tanks a few times, then realized it is too much of a PITA to keep filling them or exchanging them. Not enough shots in the little tank to make it worthwhile - maybe one large room worth of base and shoe. I reach for the paslode, if it feels like working. Otherwise, I got the small dewalt compressor.
