What do I do with it?

[Hottub]

Give it to me. I could sure use it.

[hurlmon]

I can send you a SASE and you can send it to me :)

[Judge Smails]

Has anyone asked for you to give it to them yet? Cause I could put it to good use.

[ecobag2]

dammit IMSlacker has the best suggestion so far and that's not saying much.

[Hottub]

Do you own a cordless drill?
Best tool money you'll ever spend.
Go get one.
Now!

I was looking at a bench grinder online - that might be useful.

I enjoy the handbrakes.:happy:

[GvacMobile]

Hand it back to whomever gave it to you, thank them, but explain to them you can't support that evil corporation and still keep your soul.

[OGC]

I've heard you can get wood there

I'm strangely at peace with the idea of spending it.

oooh ... the key stone. I was just seriously considering this one recently. My spare key hiding place was compromised.

[hurlmon]

Since you seem to want to be selfish and not share with us:wink:

I'd get a nice weber charcoal grill.

Nope. Just a rock. (http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10051&langId=-1&catalogId=10053&productId=100631156&N=10008009)

[ecobag2]

rarely - I like the good ol days when mens stores hired hot girls. now they have to be all politically correct.

oh - you meant lumbah?

Also firewood. You can be a real mountain man and pick up a bag of firewood there too. Which, sadly, I've done on occasion

[ecobag2]

wtf? I can't even go out in the woods and get a rock anymore? Someone in China has to make one for me, ship it to PA and then I have to get a cart and bring it home.

I declare the world completely insane today.

[Judge Smails]

Wait out front for a contractor to come in (should take about 10 seconds). Offer to sell him the card for $85. Pocket profit. Forward me my finder's fee. Everyone's happy.

damn smails. Fucking genious.

If I had that kind of get up and go sales attitude my life would be totally different though.

[Marc with a c]

get a nail gun and some lime for your mama's garden.

[~Katja~]

don't they know you shop at Lowes?
your family does not love you, seriously!

[DrDrew319]

Sell it on craigslist for $90.

[patsopinion]

What do I do with it?

your house looks like shit
take the hint

[King Hippos Bandaid]

I got a gift card last year

used it for odds and ends that were needed


extra can of paint
shovel
rock salt
new bathroom door lock


use it for shit you will eventually need

[ecobag2]

Only when I'm in the fancy Easton area. ;)

I did eventually pick up something I've been needing for quite some time... an air compressor - I didn't even want the nail gun and the staple gun that comes with it but booyah!

I had 40 left over so I got a cheap jig saw too... which is a luxury item if you ask me but I always seem to be saying at some point in the job "I sure could use a jig saw here"

[lleeder]

buy bags.

[cougarjake13]

buy lumber

Nothing quite so handy as a tank of compressed air. Truly a thousand uses.

QFT.

You can even airbrush with this little unit. I might open one of those t-shirt painting businesses I've always wanted to now. Head out to the boardwalk and do like "Fly By Night" owl on someone's denim jacket.

Bitchin.

When I get home depot/lowes gift cards... (which I got plenty of when I was building my house in NC a few years back)
I started projects with them and almost never ever finished.
Like:
MAN I AM GONNA PUT WOOD MOLDING STUFF AROUND ALL THE BATHROOM.

(well, I got one side done)

MAN WOULDN'T BOXING IN THESE WINDOWS BE AWESOME SO I COULD HANG REAL CURTAINS!?

(Guess not, as I never finished)

Now I know my limits and go straight to the garden area and buy plants.

Lots of plants.

This is why my first instinct is to go with what Hippos suggested. Then just head to the tool section and find something I might use.

Strangley - plants run pretty expensive. I remodeled the kitchen a few months back and figured a couple plants would finish it nicely so - I went for two hanging green things... no other stipulation. Like over $30 altogether - and those were about the cheapest from what I recall. Wtf?
