After work yesterday I picked up one of the workbenchs that they sell at Sam's for $199. It was listed for $99, handed him 5 $20's and he helped me put it in the truck. I figure the top is worth that.

Broke it down and stored it for now. Already thinking of mods. Tool tray on one side and mounting the 2 Record 7" vises I got during the infamous Big Lots frenzy! The steel stand is sturdy and it should be easy to add cabinets underneath.

Hey, a picture would be nice. BTW, if it was $99.00, and you handed over five 20's, does that mean you tipped $1.00.

I have seen those benches and that is a good price on one. A great deal like that deserved a big tip.

...and no tax? Did you pick it up in the front of the store, or from the back?

I figure the top is worth that.

If these are the metal workbenches with the heavy wood top, it was, indeed, worthy of a gloat. The 'roll-around' matching cabinets are also pretty nice and are designed to fit neatly under the workbench.

I have two benches and four cabinets (older versions of the ones in the store now) and am completely satisfied with them.
