From time to time

On Wednesdays, one of the local plumbing supply distributors has free lunches. So, most eat their lunch on the way to LOWES.

On Tuesdays, a refrigeration supply house about 20 miles away has their counter days along with grilled hot dogs and hambergurers. Most of us eat our lunch and and go next door to GRAINGERS where they offer FREON much cheaper.

So Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays we make our purchases.

I only spend the minimum amount with outfits like Lowes, Graingers as possible. Generally, though, these outfits will offer a special on things that they have found to be "slow-moving", little profit items" to make space for items that will be in greater demand. For instance, there is little profit for a grocery store in their PRODUCE isles. Their greatest profit items are "SUNDRIES", like razor blades, shampoo, etc. These items are known as "RACK ITEMS". I purchase one pack of razor blades about every 5 yrs. or so. I was trained to resharpen the old GILLETTE blades when I was 5 yrs. old. I watched my dad.

Hope this explains, things. John,PA
