Harbor Freight has stores....... to go there is a wonderful experience. One must be very careful to singlemindedly buy only what you go for. The temptation is great.
I break into a cold sweat when I pick up a screwdriver, but I really did enjoy a visit to the Harbor web site. I love tools, but they don’t like me.
I usually fill-up one of those orange hand-baskets on advertised `cherries’. I paid Snap-On prices for years, but they were a business expense then. I bought something last Saturday for $3.00 that Sears had on sale for $20.00—same thing.
It’s axiomatic in political science that if you have to choose between appealing to patriotism or pocketbook, at least if you want to win, appeal to the pocketbook.
And have you noticed that some of the same people who make the argument that it’s OK to buy Japanese cars because they are a value (compared to American steel) then have the temerity to argue that Nissan, Toyota and Honda are “American companies” because Americans work there?
And then they urge us to `Buy American’?
