(excuse the thinly vieled religious stuff, not like I put "Lord" in the title)

I walked into Lowes today and being in need of a dust collector, I went over and checked them out (again).

The Delta was being clearanced out. Normally $240. Only one left was the floor model at $150. I asked, yeah'ya I recieved ( beehive ) an additional 10% discount. Too cool, huh?

Yeah, it WAS a great deal. Now, just how do I explain that to my wife? (she has not seen it yet) oops_sign

Could I user her famous statement? "honey, I SAVED you $100 by buying this!". You think that might work?

I generally use the " I'm saving my one set of lungs Honey" approach on a purchase of that nature.

Good buy and a good investment.

Cheers, Danny
