    You have to be picky what you are buying, but I don't rule out Harbor Freight for purchasing certain tools.
    True but I doubt I would want a winch. I can deal with a drill that breaks. But when a winch goes it can be ugly.
    PLesa excuse the tpyos.

      How many of you people are using winches in your household and automotive repairs? I'm feeling very emasculated right now.

        I take a 2000 lb winch wherever I go. Just in case.

          Honestly I dont have one now, but I used to have one on my bronco some years back. Plus, I was once nearby when the cable on a winch broke under load. I came THAT close to being killed by that thing.

          Some tools you might skimp on. A winch isnt one of them, in my estimation.

            Well then, I will not skimp on my next winch purchase.

              I LOVE my infrared thermometer with laser sensing (I did not get it from Harbor Freight). I love it so much that I bought one for my mother and my brother for past Christmases. Neither of them have expressed to me how much they love theirs.

              I think I may get one for my sister this year.

                I will not be near a Harbor Freight on Black Friday, but if anyone wants to pick me up one of those infrared thermometers, I will gladly reimburse them for it plus a 10% handling fee. that's right, if you're wondering where to find an extra $1.90 to spend this holiday season, look no further.

                    I'll need to see the money upfront.

                      I did not intend to mock, and I found your account harrowing. I'm very glad you cheated death.

                          My friend uses her infrared thermometer to bust her dog. He is not supposed to be jumping up on the kitchen table, where he curls up in a ball when no one is looking (he is approximately 7 bs). When she unexpectedly walks into the kitchen, objects on the table look hurriedly rearranged and there are a few stray strands of dog hair. She shrieks in excitement and runs for her thermometer, and sure enough, it is suspiciously warmer in that area.

                            The thought of a world without your monkey face in it brought a year to my eye. I shall never view a winch, or wench if I happen to be at Medieval Times, the same.

                              I'm double posting because this is a screaming deal. $392 for a refurbed Canon T3i kit. Can't beat that for someone starting in photography.
