Let's Go Brandon!!!
Oh look its Bezos annual garage sale...
Noco jump packs are 50% off.
Fuck amazon. Its part of whats wrong with this country.
Up north here it's the same deal with mostly crappy chinese stuff, but I grabbed a couple tp link kasa switches at the normalish sale price (maybe a few bucks less than usual) and a spare Dewalt brushess impact driver, same as I already have but it's nice to have two to save swapping bits or for a friend to lend a hand.
There were a few ok electronics and kitchen/home deals, but nothing spectacular.
It allows me to be in the middle of nowhere and still order shit I never knew I needed.
It blows me away people go searching through stores for half the crap I buy there. I wouldn't even know what store to look in for most of it, and I'd have to drive 100+ miles.
I guess I don't even really look on there to buy stuff I could get locally. Considering all I have in town is 3 tractor supply type stores, grocery store, and the gun store I have to order some stuff online. Hell, I can't even find carhartt pants at 2/3 farm stores as they get better pricing on wrangler. The store that does carry carhartt only ever has 1 pair of any size in 1 style and I have to special order them anyways.
Retail is dying because the businesses are run like shit and trying to sell high mark-up items, not what would actually sell.
I just ordered a light bar for a work truck. Amazon seller was $70, farm store wanted $300 for one half the size, and ridgid was $700. I can buy 10 or 1, I'll pick 10 because I'll likely kill it with rocks and trees long before I see any warranty issues. It might be different if they expensive ones weren't also made in china and just QC'd here.
[memphis said:;n161481]NOCO boosters are aggressively priced!
I mean WTF you gonna do with 1 gallon of diesel engine oil? That's the oil I use and it's a good deal and all on 1 gallon but WTF. Can I make 3 separate purchases, I didn't try that.
Eh, that's like two oil changes on the DR650. meh
You don't waste the T6 on a DR????
Bragger 🖕 (can't find the double barrel salute sorry)

I spent $20.. two LifeStraws. No real reason to have them other than "just because".
In the great toilet paper and bottled water scare of 2020, I bought life straws and a Katydin. I have 10,000+ gallons of pool water 50' from my back door.
I live rural so sometimes I have to use them, but we try everything else first. All I see is that they are driving the little guys prices up, or putting them out of business. have created even more laziness in people, and they are now promising 0 net carbon emissions bullshit lies that are not even possible to push a certain agenda. Chewy and others are the same. If people kept money local it would only benefit themselves in the long run.
I picked up a Zinus mattress and a NOCO booster.

Bought a 50" Smart TV for one of my rentals for ~$250.
I've had this streamlight flashlight sitting on my "list" for a few months waiting for a reason to buy it.
26% off right now... should be a good light for $22

You try everything else first? So each time you need that one thing, you hit ace, home depot, lowes, tractor supply and another ace just order to it in 40 seconds? Because that's usually how my "I'll get it local" trip works. Waste 3/4 of a day and $20 in fuel, just to come up empty handed.
Sure it's nice to try to support the little guy, but they're mostly gone anyway already.
