Where's The Deals?

Home Depot has all Makita tools on for 20% off from June 12-15.
Home Hardware has the LED lights that clip on the underside of your hardhat brim in their flyer for $2.39 reg. $3.99. For the Drywallers, who have to supply their own extension cord to their screwgun, Home Hardware also has 25m 16/3 cords for $26.99, reg. $35.99. Hind-sight says I should have bought shares in a copper mine, the same cords just a few years ago were $12.99 and went on sale for $8.99. Flyer runs 'till June 28.
If anyone is looking for work clothes don't forget members of the Carpenters Union get a 10% discount at Marks Work Wearhouse, just pick up the discount card at the union hall. If you have been shopping around online you've probably noticed how much cheaper the Carhartts are in the States. A hassle free place to order from across the border is Cabela's, the huge hunting supplies mail-order catalogue. They put the taxes and fees on their price right at the checkout so there isn't a surprise when you receive your order and their shipping charges are the same as I've paid from a mail order from Winnipeg. They often have some good deals on closeouts and the like in their "Bargain Cave" too. Cabela's website is at: http://www.cabelas.com/
