What's going on in Good Deals?

DavidB · 01-17-09, 02:00

With the economy sucking as bad as it does, I figured it was a good time to pop the Good Deals forum up a level and start sharing.

When you find a great deal, share it with the rest of us... post it up!

But, please, no

Makita 9227c on Amazon shipped for about $180 with the bag, 2 pads and the BP that it comes with

Amazon.com: Makita 9227CX3 7-Inch Electronic Sander-Polisher with Polishing Kit: Automotive

Sadly due to the cost, I had to choose this over buying from our sponsors. I'll compensate with more pad buying and a BP or two though

Mother's Reflections car wax is now on sale at Amazon.com for only $9.95.

Damn that Makita is a great deal. I ended up paying slightly less than that for a G110, but I got a hardcase AND a bag. And some pads. But it sure is pretty in Makita Green. Oh, its a rotary though, I'm not confident enough for a rotary yet.

I know I've seen this posted around here and there, but for those that don't know; Specialty Bottle is a great place to get 2-8 oz mixing and diluting bottles in bulk.

Also Home Depot (around me at least in NJ) has 32oz heavy duty spray bottles for $.98 each. The spray nozzles seem very good quality and they have graduation markings for mixing including actual ratio lines for 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, etc. Nice bottles if you buy your products in bulk and/or dilute it.

I just went to Home Depot yesterday, they didn't have any spray bottles for 98 cents, they were all like $3.50. I got a 3 pack for $5 though. And a wash bucket for like 2 bucks.

Now to find a place locally that sells grit guards...

Just drill a series of holes (I use a 3/4" wood bit) in one bucket and place egg crate in the bottom of the second, then stack the first on top....voila!

Hmm, these were on an end cap cardboard rack. It didn't say anything about a sale, I just figured they were on closeout or something. They are 32 oz bottles with orange and white spray nozzles and the Home Depot logo screen printed on them.

I was going to post the same thing.

This seems like a decent price on a PC?
