It's my luckity ding dong day

Post by skate323k137 »

This morning, I walked into my local electronics store to grab some LED's and a new soldering iron. I ended up grabbing about $50 worth of things before i made my way to the counter. I get up there, and see a note that says they're trying to liquidate physical inventory, and any purchases over $100 get 50% off!

So i got a set of 30+ security bits (tri-wing, hex and torx with the hollow centers, fork bits...) a set of tiny torx drivers T3 to T9, a book on electronics (so i can finally understand and maybe build some of the circuit diagrams I look at all the time), some flux and a couple types of solder, all essentially free since I planned on spending $50 to begin with. I felt like I was robbing the place; since nowhere else around here carries that stuff, I'm always in heaven when I'm in there. It's like a radio shack with quality stuff and knowledgeable employees... so actually it's not like a radio shack at all :lol:

Nice score. I wish I could find a decent electronics store around here. You'd think that in a city the size of Omaha, there'd be at least one. All I can find are Radio Shacks, which don't count.
