Wandering around the Depot today...........found that they had a couple of new Makita 12V Drills on the closeout table. SWMBO was in a generous mood, mostly because I finally finished the little box she has been patiently waiting on. Drill, charger, case and 2 batteries......and a free pair of Makita work gloves...........which are VERY nice. Gloves are kind of like the mechanic's gloves you see the NASCAR pit crews wear. Drill was marked down from $160.00 to $89.00........so she let it follow us home. Also, I got a rare deal on Ebay that arrived this week. Freud D1244X, 12" Miter Saw Blade for $20.20, brand spanking new, delivered. Thin Kerf, Teflon Coated blade that cuts like a breeze. I am not real big on thin kerf blades, but for the money, I couldn't pass it up. All in all, a good weekend so far...........new toys and a happy Wife............does it get any better than that? (Oh, SWMBO just reminded me that the Makita Drill also came with a $20.00 rebate coupon that we mail in........so the deal just got better! Funny how the ladies remember stuff like that, isn't it? )
