Default I love LOWES!

Well, Ive been working at lowes in the lumber department for about a year now. I go to school in williamsport and come home everyweekend to get 16 hours in. Last weekend, alot of new tool chests were arriving, replacing last year's models ... so we needed to get rid of the floor models.

HERES WHAT I PICKED UP:

Task Force 3 peice work center.
Originally 139.99 .... I payed $6.50


Kobalt 6 Drawer Tool Chest
Originally 299.99 .... I payed $14.00


Kobalt 5 Drawer Tool Chest
Originally 269.99 .... I payed $10.00



I made out pretty damn well!!!!!!

I am shocked at the discounts and sales they have. My mom works there and tell me when things are 80-90% off.

I buy things and sell them on Ebay
