    Here, I find myself with a stack of Harbor Freight Coupons.....They come by mail, email, magazines, etc, and my wife cuts them out.
    Theres maybe 20-30 right now around the house.
    Im Lucky, I guess, that a store is around 3 miles away, and one of the managers is a Fellow Pinhead!

    I never go without the 20% Coupon, and Freebie, but Im running out of room.....and we use the Freebies often with Pins!

    What is your favorite Freebie? Any other uses worth mentioning?

    Quoted from Coz:

    Magnetic led flashlight is my favorite free item, I use them at work

    I think I have 15 plus of these....they seem to multiple on their own!

    Quoted from mbaumle:

    My dad has a weird obsession with the tape measures. We have at least 5 or 6 now.
    Personally, I like the magnetic bars/parts bowls, and I’ve been hoarding them for myself. I line them up along the siderail of a game I’m shopping, and use each one for different things. One bowl for posts, another for wood screws, another for speed nuts, etc etc.

    Good idea...I suppose I could line up the magnetic trays, on the magnetic bars, and then build something with a stack of free bars?

    I just had a new AC installed in my office.

    I have been emptying out slowly over the last few years, but collected a box of about 14 flashlights, and 8 tape measurers....
    Gave it to the work crew, who were happy is all!

    Quoted from Electrocute:

    Why buy anything from Harbor Freight if you’re never ever gonna use it?

    As the title implies, these are freebies from harbor freight. I didnt buy any of the flashlights..

    Quoted from Electrocute:

    Let me rephrase, Why go out of your way to get free stuff from Harbor Freight that you’ll never use?

    Fair enough, Adrianne, the local manager was living with a friend, a local pinhead, and our central Florida playfield touch up artist,
    She would add things into my bag, even if I didnt ask.
    My son, who would go, is a flashlight collector, he has freaking $600 flashlights that light up a block. I dont know why he loves flashlights, but he would bring them home.
    Employees, when I was running Comet, would bring them back, after making corporate purchases.
    So, we ended up with excess.....As well as Hurricane fear, as we run out of flashlights being hit with 4 of them,

    Does that cover it?

    It will happen. Do you know Paul? Adrienne and Paul were a Sweet couple.
    You can always ask for her at the Harbor freight on 436, especially if you have any issues.

    If I find another pile of flashlights, Ill give them to Kurt to hand out at the lounge....Im keeping the rest of the free tape measurers!
    Now anyone want 200 of these:
