Harbor Freight 20% off coupon

[thewmster]

I found a 20% off single item coupon for Harbor Freight.

http://www.harborfreightusa.com/usa/common/displayCoupon.do?week=3109&campaign=RetailC&page=coupon1.html&cust=78028656284&keycode=0000&single=true

I have seen several posts listing useful items from there. Personally I'm going to try out the trim router that's been suggested a few times.

The only problem with the coupon is that it is only valid this weekend. Hopefully someone will make use of it.

Forgot to mention it is in-store only.

cool couple things i think i might need for my project.. im thinking about getting one of their small bench mount drill presses for clean controlled drilling.

btw the link has "cust=78028656284"
are these key'ed to a specific customer? or all coupons the same?

i'd hate to go in there only to find out it's already been redeemed.

got a few things i might get so i'd take a few friends and a couple coupons.

I actually pulled the coupon from dealnews.com. I've accessed the coupon multiple times and its always the exact same link. Dealnews has always been reliable, but now you got me a little worried too. The actual coupon has that same number on the barcode. I will try it today and let you know how it goes.

they have printed coupons? where at? are they in the instore ad's? or only the ones they send out in the mail?

their $25 trim routers are awesome.  they are small and easy to manipulate, and were plenty powerful enough to do everything i needed to do to build a control panel

Just sign up to receive their newsletter/coupons . I get that "20% off one item" coupons about once a week 

They also send their 15% of total , bout once a month.

I got a local store less than 5 min away

For those still interested and concerned, I just used the printed coupon at my local store.

Don't buy anything other than small disposable items there.  I have learned the hard way several times that anything of any complexity is cheap and dangerous.  Anything that needs quality will snap on the third use.

while i agree some things there are cheap.. not all.

i bought a chicago tools circular saw about 2 months ago.. it has a laser guide.

think i paid 35.99 for it.

i actually love it, it's been great, has plenty of power, the saw blade it came with was even pretty good makes nice clean cuts in 2x4, 2x8 and osb flooring.


on the other hand i did buy a heavy duty D handle drill.. also chicago tools, the thing is a beast, lots of power which i needed for some masion bits i was using.

the drill seems great except they cheaped out on the screw on handle for your off hand.. the damn thing snapped the first day.. the drill still works great but is hard to use without the screw on handle.

so i agree some things are junk there you can find some good deals, that drill if i can find a replacement handle not plastic it's otherwise a great drill for the 20 or 25 bucks i think i paid.

exactly.  I have a sawzall that I bought like 7 years ago.  I dismantled an entire car with it, have beaten the crap out of it and it still runs like new.  Now, I bough the heavier one, but I paid $35 for it and I will still put it up against anything anyone on the forum has.

A lot of people like them for disposables, and I can see that for sandpaper, etc but blades are a bad idea, IMO.  their blades are garbage for pretty much anything other than a chop saw blade I bought once.  All other blades lasted 2 cuts or less for me.
