With all the talk going around about the Bessey closeout at Home Depot, I took a trip over to a new HD on the west side of McKinney Tx. and relieved them of their inventory, 4 50", 1 40", 3 30", and 5 24". The last K-body on the rack was a 24", and it looked so lonely :rolleyes:. Then I drove to the HD in the center of McKinney, and bought 2 40", and 1 30". And finally, I drove down the road to Allen Tx, and bought 1 40". The total day's outing added up to 4 each 50", 40", and 30", and 5 24". Man, I can't afford anymore closeouts like that :).

Next step is a clamp rack....

Whew! Quite the haul, I'd say! The last time I checked at our HD, (last mid-week) they had a couple long ones and they were NOT on a closeout! Congrats! Can't never have...Oh you know the rest! :cool:

Ken, what was the Texas price on the 24"?

Sam, the 24" were $25 each. Amazon wants $31.95....

Me too! I was in the Frankfort, KY, HD for something else and told LOML I wanted to check the clamps. At her urging, I got their last four -- two 30s and two 50s. What a gal!

Thanks, Ken. That's the same price I found locally. I think there's a trip to the Depot in my future!
