Oh cool! yeah, use that discount. You earned it. We offer military discounts at my shop. Sometimes I get military discounts when I am with my son or just because my purse is camo and I have hubby's 4th ID pin on it! LOL

Well I DID find something I needed all of a sudden. Since I already have a chainsaw, fencing, and canning stuff, I am getting a bike :). Specifically an old style white wall tire cruiser with coaster brakes. No 49 gears to mess up. No hand brakes to fail when you really need them. No seat shaped like a sliver that can get lost in your nethers. Just the old fashioned 1speed bike that you pedal back when you want to stop with a wide fat seat for my wide fat backside :gig

I asked for a bike for mothers day, but we didn't have the money so this will work great. I will keep my eye open for a tow behind cart so we can actually use it to take stuff between the house and the shop. Must remember to buy a lock though. Can't trust people anymore :tongue

Well abi, we will still have to pay for the tile at least I hope Ed is putting in tile. Or cement or something Max proof :p

Until we remodel the front two rooms and make them in to a master bedroom/walk in closet, we wont be able to keep max out of one.

On a whim I looked up bike carts last night. Holy cow!!! Ones specifically for hauling cargo were three times more expensive than the bike! Instead, I will just check garage sales for one of those kid carrying carts and modify it.

CONGRATS!!!!

I enter the survey one at TSC every time we go (every other week) the survey takes me the entire drive home to complete, so DH drives.

DH and I already discussed what we would get, a bagger for our mower so we can get every single grass clipping to the hens, the rest would go toward fencing, feed, and seeds. I am sure there would be plenty of things we would both want, but being practical helps more in the long run.


Although those little toddler size John Deere shirts are so cute!

A new bathroom and a new bike sounds great! I saw those types of bikes at walmart not long ago and I really wanted to get one!!!

I think we'd get something like a pull behind tiller for the mower, or maybe a pull behind disc, or maybe a log splitter. Or maybe a woodstove! But I'd also like to use it on things like boots, Carhartt clothing, other tools, gates, cattle panels, or other stuff! It would be awesome to win that!
