Well apparently it is official, the Governor has signed the bill. I don't know what, or how much other BS is riding along with it but it is signed. Took long enough!!

 

[Peicemaker]

I'm broke. I'll probably stock up on diapers and wipes for my kiddos, though. Will gas be tax free, or at least sales tax free? If so, my truck is running on empty.

About 12-15 customers at four seasons this morning. 9mm range Ammo 8.99 per box cheaper than target sports!

More pics!

My tax-free purchase...P320 X-Five. Nice price at Shooting Supply.

My dishwasher crapped out few days ago.
You can make an educated guess what I'm buying.

Hint: it's not gun related.

My double tax free purchase



(You do what ya gotta do...)

Wife wanted a new couch. So she got one. Then she took the kids school clothes shopping and told me to enjoy the afternoon.

It was 3PM. 2 of the 3 gun shops I stopped at were closed!!! And aren’t open tomorrow. WTF.
And the one that was open didn’t have anything I really wanted and didn’t have any good sales going on.

So I went home, drank some beer and enjoyed the quite.

 

[Fixxah]

I must have missed the men's section.

Shooter's Supply in Westport 19% off open tomorrow 10-6 they got stuff and lots of it.

I've been there a few times, very impressed with prices. A pretty decent inventory as well.

Ariens Platinum 24 SHO

Just might have to stop by SS in Westport

And grabagun doesn’t support your LGS.

I am....my closest LGS only does transfers and gunsmithing now...so i am supporting that.

Also, you can say no tax and no transfer fee, I still saved money. I called the other closest gun shop that does sell guns, and got quotes on both guns I just bought, both guns averaged 125 dollars over online price EACH. Therefore I saved 250 dollars on the 2 guns, yes, I had to pay 40 dollars in transfer fees. Net savings of 210 dollars, a 5 minute drive, and no tax. I don't think saving 210 bucks is being a skinflint.....if I did it for 25 bucks then that's different. I just don't have any decent priced gun shops around me......

Did make use of the tax free day, building an 8x10 deck for my MIL...$1500 for the supplies and it paid for the delivery fee, so I was just able to buy everything online at Home Depot and not even go to the store, or load shit in and out of my truck, etc. I gotta admit that was nice for once.

 

[Varmint]

Was too busy this week to pre-buy and couldn't get away today to get to a shop. Everything's closed tomorrow.

Call. I know Collectors in Stoneham has special hours tomorrow. Other LGS are probably taking advantage of the holiday too.

Hunter fan, 3 10packs of Kleenex and a LED floodlight . . . all on sale at Costco.

[Darksideblues42]

I bought nothing.

Wife had me go with her to Cheap Trick, Def Leppard and Journey yesterday at Fenway, so after our normal domestic weeked stuff, we had no time, AND I am on the way to the Airport now to fly to Dallas to plug in a USB cable for a customer who can't follow directions.

Good idea... I need to replace my front door and storm doors as well as shutters. Heading to home improvement store now.

 

[ProGun]

Nothing too exciting...table top cigar cutter, file cabinet/office supplies, couple toys for the baby, and some paper products. I'll spare you the pics.

 

[oldguy68]

Jeez, and all I bought was a new Stanley torpedo level to replace the one I lost a few weeks ago and some apple wood for smokin' ribs today..MMmm.

 

[dontpanic]

Ramps and a canopy tent for the upcoming track day!

 

[Lowbird]

Not a damn thing. Moving so saving coin for a sec deposit. It is a no fun league over here.

I have been eye balling some furniture for the new place. Depends on space I get.

 

[oldguy68]

Don'tpanic,
I would love to take my DR650 Slowmoto to a track day!
A pic of my bike and my son at 4 years old when we got him.
He is my proudest moment, the day I signed his adoption paperwork!
Love you always, Alexi, Your dad Pete!
I pray everyday to be half the father you need me to be!

 

[Garys]

Haven't picked it up yet, but bought a Springfield XDE from FS. Got an additional 2% off for paying cash. If I don't like it, you'll see it in the classifieds here in a few weeks.

 

[rebut]

A new Samsung 65" 4k TV. Arriving tomorrow. Our 9 year old 60" Mitz DLP was supposed to be an temporary space holder to eventually be moved to the guest room but performed well enough (just had to replace a lamp every 2 or 3 years) but its technology has long since been surpassed.

BTW...two hours after I got home from making the purchase yesterday morning I was online checking measurements for wall mounting and both Best Buy and Amazon had jacked the price a hundred bucks. So much for saving money on "tax free weekend". Got mine though.

 

[amm5061]

Bought a new king sized mattress and a case of 9mm.
