What did you buy this week?

[Uncle_Charlie]

Nothing. Absolutely nothing, after paying the home owners insurance for the year. It went up 50% over last year.

My Son and I bought a 2023 Kubota KX040 excavator with 16hrs on it. Our neighbor has just bought it then passed away so his Wife made us a really good deal as her husband had bought it outright so we saved about 20% plus the tax.

Googled it - looks like a real nice machine. Congratulations.

Yes they are, cab with heat and a/c plus 6way blade is what we wanted; having a pair of u-35's open station with roof gets might cold in the winter, also hot in summers.

Since we are having a different type of winter so far this year. wetter but less snow, I haven't had to use my tractor for snow removal. I haven't moved my tractor into the shop yet, it is under cover of my lean to and I'm worried about the battery. In the shop I keep it on a maintenance charge but under the lean to it's not plugged in so I bought a GooLoo 3000 Amp jump starter. Good to have for any of the equipment.

I just got back from Ace Hardware. I had pipe clamps and couldn't find them so I ordered a 3/4" set of 8. I had some pipe but wanted to see what they had. They had 3/4 black iron but no price on the 10 ft. ones. The 2ft, 4ft, etc pretty expensive so I was prepared. I asked a kid working there how much. $2.59 said his price checker..."how many do you want?" he asked. "All you got" I said . He helped me to the register and her price scan said $2.59 also!
My lucky day!

Thank goodness for cashiers that can't do math.
Went to Mark's Work Warehouse, guessing only in Kanuckistan, to get a coat, big sale going on.
Found one for $69.99 less 25%. We have 13% sales tax. In my head I had calculated just under $60. I have my 3 $20 in my hand She says $79 and change.
What? No.
It's on sale. She goes checks the rack. Sign in wrong place but she'll let me have it with discount.
She comes up with$75 dollars.
Wrong.
Give me a pen and paper. I show her it's $59.32.
Back to the till. Comes up with a different number. Blames the computer.
Lineup behind me building.
She's flustered, admits she can't do math.
Re-enters the jacket again. Now it's coming up $38 taxes in.
She lets me have it.
Bonus today is every purchase gets a free pair of copper sole polar socks that sell for $15 a pair.
She wasn't even blonde.
I also got a $5 credit on my points card for purchases over $60.

Me to me Christmas gift. Ryobi 18v chainsaw 8" pruning blade. I have a stack of 18v batteries and wanted something specifically 18v Ryobi. You tube reviews looked good. Will use it sparingly as I have a nice 16" saw for bigger stuff. $124 at Walmart.
