For me, the ultimate problem with HF is that they seldom have the
stuff
they advertise. We have a local store (meaning about a 25 mile drive
each way) & the hit rate for sale items is about 1 in 10.

I'm 1/2 way between 2 stores. My strategy is the same I used for toys
when I was a kid: circle all of the stuff in the catalog(s) that I
want. Develop budget limit for this trip. Find as many items on list
as possible. Consume remaining budget on c-clamps and specialty
pliers. A man can never have enough clamps or bent-end-long-reach-
needle-nose-internal-snap-ring pliers.

By the way, I highly recommend the 20ft. 1,000lb capacity yellow
ratchet tie-down straps. They are better than the ones at home cheap-o
and I got mine for $1.99 each. (I bought 1 to use and 3 spares.)

Don't leave them in the sun. I used a couple on a three week trip.
When I got home, I could pull them in two with my hands.

Andy: remind me not to disagree with you. I've been using some of those
for several years and I can't bust them with my hands. Whatever is in your
diet let me know and maybe you should cut back a bit.
