I have been considering starting a support group for people with a
likewise addiction to my own. The day Harbor Freight moved into my town, my life was changed. It was easy to avoid it when it was online. I know other stores have impulse items by the checkout, but this damn place is filled with impulse items. Really. Who can resist a 32 piece screwdriver set fot $5. oh wait... that is a good deal on shrink tubing. who cares if I already have some... how many pairs of $.99 utility scissors does one REALLY need? I need help. I just bought a welder, but was back the next day for accessories. |

It could be worse! I made the horrible mistake of taking my wife to
HF one time. Not only did she buy more than I did, she now gets ****ed if I go without her. wrote: I have been considering starting a support group for people with a likewise addiction to my own.

Count me in. In addition to the tools I get there, on my last trip over
there I bought 4 stunt kites for only 7 bucks each. Now I can hardly wait to take my grandkids to the beach...

I made that mistake too and I thought it was bad when I took my daughter.
We have a small store about 3 miles away and a bigger one about 15. I'm not taking my wife to the bigger store... Tony BobR wrote: It could be worse!

Every month or so I go past my wife's workbench and say, "Hey, that's a neat tool, where?...Oh." Then I have to go to HF myself to pick up my own. :-) Ron Wanttaja |

A cardboard sign is affixed to the outer door of the Baptist Church
recreation room. The sign reads: 'HFA - 7pm' Inside the air is thick with cigarette smoke. Everyone is sucking on cups of heavily sugared coffee to go with their jelly donuts. Newbie stands nervously and says, "Hello. My name is Bob and I'm a Harbor Freightaholic." The crowd responds: "Hi, Bob." "It's been THREE DAYS since I bought anything from Harbor Freight." Applause, interspersed with: "Waytago, Bob!" "One day at a time, Bro." "You can do it!" |

I was tempted to buy the other 5 they had on the shelf. When my daughter was little, she wanted a stunt kite but back then I was in college, dirt poor and the damn things were 60 bucks and up. Oh and I bought an air brush and a couple of uncle fester clamps too. It's a good thing they don't have the larger store closer to where I live. Tony |
