Saturday morning, the baddest cordless impact thread got me looking at Home Despot's website where I noticed the Ridgid 1/2" was on sale...
So, I ordered one. Should be here Friday...
Last night I saw that Harbor Fright had these boxes on sale ending today.
Wound up buying 2 of them...
Almost a grand. Just vanished from my bank account...
What tools did you spend your cash on recently?

When a guy goes shopping, he says "This weekend just got expensive".
When a woman goes shopping, she says "Guess how much money I saved!"

..Thankful my wife isn't a "go shopping for fun" person.
I've been making college payments and I just bought another used car - I know the feeling of expensive weekends.
It's all like Monopoly money I guess. LOL.
In reply to SV reX :
Haha, you're spot on, my friend!
I have recently sung my praises of the orange tools. Good choice.

In reply to Scotty Con Queso :
I've been trying to stay in one family of batteries, so I got the impact that matched what I already have. I like the battery warranty too, considering all my older tools failed by battery degradation not actual tool failure.
I was trying to stay with milwaukee, but then I was given some ryobi 18v stuff and bought a makita lawn mower with 4 18v batteries. It's honestly kind of freeing being able to buy whatever tool fits your needs best instead of which one matches your batteries. I still try to keep to one battery type for tools that go with me to the track, though.
In the last week I bought a new truck.
Then I scheduled to have a spray in bed liner
Then I ordered a back seat protector (kids.. mess...)
then I ordered mud flaps
Then I ordered a roll up bed cover...
Oh, somewhere in there I called my insurance and figured out what a brand new truck added to my yearly.

I just bought a new truck too.
And WeatherTech mats...
And a camper shell...
And a bed slide...
No sense earning money if you can't have fun spending it.
