BEWARE OF THE HOME DEPOT SCAM
Be careful when shopping at Home Depot. This is a "heads up" for men who may be regular Home Depot customers like me.
Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naïve enough to think it couldn't happen to you, or to your friends.
Here's how the scam works:
Two very hot 20 something girls come over to your car or truck in the parking lot as you are unloading your shopping cart into your trunk or the bed of your pickup truck. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. It is impossible not to look.
When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say, “No”, and instead they ask you for a ride to another Home Depot. Of course you agree, and they get in the backseat. On the way, they start undressing in your car or the cab of your truck. Then one of them climbs over into the front seat and starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.
I had my wallet stolen on November 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 11th, 12th, 19th, 20th, and 30th. Also on December 1st and 4th, twice on the 8th, 16th, three times this Saturday and very likely again this week.
So tell your friends to be careful.
P.S. Wal Mart has wallets on sale for $1.99 each

I'm showing this to my wife. All I've been doing lately is painting walls and laying floors. This should shorten the honeydew list substantially. ;D

I just started using envelopes instead of buying new wallets.
Works just as good and you get 24 at a time (girls don't seem to mind). ;D
Hey Fatman, do you get many splinters laying floors? :o

Damn, just got back from HD. Spent $3,000, left my wallet sticking out, not a bite. Kinda like fishing(not very good at that either). But it could be that the wind chill is 25 below. Ya thats it , not me, just to cold.

The prices aren't so outrageous. They charged me 2 cents less for 50 pounds of rock salt than Lowes did, $5.47 vs. $5.49. Now I have a spare 2 cents to put in whenever I want.

Jaybet,
I feel yer pain my man! ::)

I've always preferred Lowes, but I guess I should give that other Hardware store a chance ;D
BTW -- My father inlaw works weekends at Lowes.... Im sending him this in an email..... he will love it!
