Clerk: "NO PB BLASTER FOR YOU, GET OUT OF MY STORE!!"
Me: <mumbles while walking out> "friggin' PB ****"

Re: XJ Door Hinge - I'm in trouble!
Hey Mort,
Picked up some PB today from the Clark Rd. store. $6.40 for 12oz can. Bought
some other items as well, the Manager (Mike Overholt) was VERY helpful and I
think he was giving me trade prices.
4 cans of PB
5 recip-saw metal blades
1 4.5" cutting disc
1 chipping (welding) hammer
Just over $60 tax included.
This was a much better experience than my first visit... I was getting the
"if you have to ask how much it is...." type of attitude and I think the guy
was making up prices on-the-fly. With Mike, I'd ask for a price and he'd ask
"how many?".
Thanks for mentioning Fastenal, I'll be shopping there more often.

Re: XJ Door Hinge - I'm in trouble!
Hey Mort,
Picked up some PB today from the Clark Rd. store. $6.40 for 12oz can. Bought
some other items as well, the Manager (Mike Overholt) was VERY helpful and I
think he was giving me trade prices.
4 cans of PB
5 recip-saw metal blades
1 4.5" cutting disc
1 chipping (welding) hammer
Just over $60 tax included.
This was a much better experience than my first visit... I was getting the
"if you have to ask how much it is...." type of attitude and I think the guy
was making up prices on-the-fly. With Mike, I'd ask for a price and he'd ask
"how many?".
Thanks for mentioning Fastenal, I'll be shopping there more often.
