Has anyone found any special offers for woodworkers that are also first responders?

Why would first responders need woodworking tools?

Grizzly had one about a month ago for 10% off, then they turned around the next week and gave it to everyone for the next 3 weeks.
Now it's shipping for a flat $25, which is normally $200, so up to about $2k, it's almost a better deal.
I think there will be a little recession going on in the near future & there will be better deals to come.

They don't. But a show of appreciation is always nice.

And is well deserved!
I wish I knew of some deals to tell you about.
Thanks for all you do Matt!

Because they have to make a living somehow. I'm a retired LEO with 35 years in. Those young guys answering calls don't make much in the early years and often have to supplement their income with part time jobs. I built a lot of decks and storage buildings on my off days.

I'm sitting in a comfortable home office reading a woodworking forum during lunch. Got a paycheck coming in and people out there keeping the world working while I amd my family sit here safely.
Are they victims? No.
But they certainly have my respect and if I was setting prices they would certainly have a discount factored in. I have no idea if Mathew was asking for himself or on behalf of first responder's in general but thanks man I appreciate it.

Don't know where you are from, but I just posted an excalibur fence and rails for a table saw, and they are yours if you want them. I am in the Iowa City, IA area. John
