Went to HF last night to get some of the BF sales that are going on now (see the "$1350 Super Coupon Book".
Brought all of my sales papers, the coupon book, and my Swiss Army knife with scissors to cut the coupons.
Best deal - 6 Amp Reciprocating Saw with Rotating Handle at $20:

I've always looked at this as a long term purchase when the price was right and $20 was it! Nice tool with rotating handle and tool-less blade change. Came with 2 blades and I bought 5 more bi-metalic for $5.
HF is kind of wierd with the coupons, you have to know what you are doing and research well else you may pay more than the lowest price.
Tried to use one of the 20% or 15% coupons but there was a conflict about coupon use and another coupon. One of the items I wanted was a current coupon item. The clerk noted that the next sale paper has it on sale for $10 less than the coupon price and THAT I COULD USE A DISCOUNT OFF COUPON ON A SALE ITEM so I will wait until next week for this item. Will bring the price ($150 "MSRP") to $72.
Not sure how I ended up spending $75 last night but all of those $5 purchases add up.
10 sanding sponges for $3 was a good deal.
!0" pneumatic wheels at $4 also good. I changed out my compressor wheel (actually the tube only) and will do the generator next.
Manual transfer pump (for draining tanks at the end of the season) $4.
Couple of impulse items as well.
My 12 year old daughter was amazed as well at the variety of things in the store.
I was going to buy a few items I tagged from the web site but could not find them. Best to ask the clerk about item #'s for online stuff as not all of it is in the stores yet and this saves you lots of time looking all over the place for things.
Helpful staff as well in the Worcester MA store.
