    Default Cheap Quickrete


    Just left Lowes after picking up some quickrete. While I was there I asked the manager how much the were asking for the sacks that were damaged. He said he would let them go for 50 cents a pop so I bought all 4 they had. I just poured it into the buckets I am using to make the condos.

    Free buckets, 50 cent quickrete and free boo makes for some affordable condos. Thought some of you bargin shoppers might take advantage of a similar deal at your local hardware stores.

    No way! I am very clear with family, friends and business associates that my threshold for dishonest thivery and trickery is 2 million dollars, not 3.88.

    Beware though for 2 mil I will burn you in a hearbeat.
