[Tilted Irish Kilt]

I went to my favorite Farm and Ag supply store
and found that gardening tools have doubled in price.
Maybe it's time to hit 'estate sales' and the flea markets for needed tools.
I refuse to buy cheap Chinese tools, and get American made tools, or manufactured by our allies.

Wow. Hadn’t even thought of that ‘trickle down’ effect of the current cr@ptastic economy!

All of my tools have been inherited or gifted and I ‘won’ an assortment of Fiskars hand tools in a Silent Auction a few years ago.

Estate Sales would be a good way to go; lots of treasures to be had at those. :)
