Memorial Weekend

So what does the Toolgal do on Memorial Weekend, well on Saturday of course the store is open and we are busy selling machines...We also were busy last week thinking about what we want to promote for the rest of May - With the help of the girls at Tool Depot we came up with the following:

4000-09 Bosch Tablesaw with gravity feed stand normally we sell it for 549.00 - right now we are selling it for $519.00 with a FREE, yes I said FREE 10" Pro 60T Circular Saw Blade which has over a $54.99 Value.

MIL2401-22, Milwaukee V12 Pocket Driver - $116.95

Those are the hottest deals right now especially the first one.

Sorry everyone but I am gong to give my opinion because that is what a blog is about:

We keep hearing that the country is in a recession: but I have to say Sioux City, LeMars and Sioux Falls we are not having that problem. In the past 5 years that I have been working on the purchasing for the Tool Depots this is the busiest I have ever been, yes we are opening up a new location so that is part of the problem but Sioux City is hopping and maybe it is because we have the products in stock, enough for everyone that is needing grinding wheels, drill bits (I have been ordering more Morse Cutting Drill Bits than I order the first 2 months of the year), people are not purchasing the power tools and are fixing what they have but the accessories are going out the door as fast as we can get them in!!! Ok that is all I am going to say.

So to finish out the Sunday, the Toolgal was working out in her garden fixing her hose (too much water pressure) taking a nap in the backyard and watching the Nascar race, sucks that my driver did not win but there is always next week.

If you are in Sioux City, Wednesday the flowers will be in so be watching for the colors!!!

Talk to you later
Toolgal :-)~

P.S. We are are Closed for Memorial Day but open back up on Tuesday...Watch for the June Specials coming next week.

What's New

Well we have had a busy last couple of weeks, trying to finish up with everything going on at work and get everything done for while I was gone. We have great news for the Sioux Falls location. The sign is up on the street, just waiting to see what the ToolMan is going to be putting on the reader board. The shelving will be landing in Sioux Falls sometime tomorrow, May 19th and I know we are still working on the floors and that is the hold up.

As to what else is going on, well I am out of the loop on what else is going on but I will update everyone tomorrow on some special promotions that are going on!!
