Saving a few $$ with Zoro Tools

I've got a effluent pump that is old and going out. It is working intermittently right now. I bought a replacement dayton branded 1/2 HP sump pump, AND a Milwaukee fuel 12V 3/8" ratchet setup, another pair of knipex pliers, and a pelican single AAA light I like to keep in my pocket. Total price for all the goodies delivered with discount was 373.23

If I had walked into my local grainger and bought just the very same effluent pump by itself, it would have cost 423.00 with tax.

Use a backpack husqvarna backpack blower.

I been using the backpack blower for 10 years. A wise carwash owner told be about the billy goat and now I am hooked. Bought another billygoat with 30% coupon code. I have a lot of trees at my locations and it takes time to blow them to a pile and bag them. The billygoat save time, bags and is much cleanier. I also like to use the billy goat in the corners in the bays and around the vacs. It picks up all the sand and rock debris. So much of my life has been wasted.

That Milwaukee 12V 3/8 ratchet is my most use tool. It saves time in changing motors and taking off and putting on spray tips. No more scraping your knuckles when changing drive motor.

I thought I would grab one and try it after you bragged on yours so much. I've got a big impact wrench but I could have used this little one when replacing the starter on my truck. I think it worked out to 120.00 with discount.

what about Thermal Efficient High Efficiency water heaters? Does Zoro have those? If so, any recommendations ? I like the idea of 2" outgoing hose...

vinh,

You mentioned tax-free. In our state of north dakota, being a business ... there are state tax department auditors ... who are on standby to audit & make sure you pay the equivalent plus as if sold in the state. The reason I say not just equivalent, but also "plus" is because the auditor in our case went back 7 years & charged us 12% compounded interest. I suppose we should be thankful we did not have an exorbitant "ignorance of the law" fine in addition ... but there are limits to our gratitude.

I am a bit surprised at this. In most states it is the vendor that must collect the tax. When I had my company they made me pay for uncollected sales taxes. I had the option of trying to collect from my customers but they did not try to collect from them.

No idea, but I imagine you could look on their web site and or call. I believe they are a division of Grainger...but I think they operate separate customer service.

They sell the Rheem-Rudd line. I have no idea if they are competitive.

How do you get the info on the discount dates? I have ordered from them several times, signed up for email notifications, etc. but never see the "specials"?

I just put these codes in the LED light thread but thought I would add here in case some guys are following that.

The code for cyber monday (11/28/16) is CYBERSAVER It's good for 25% off any order of $150 or more. Shipping is also free on most order over $50.

There is a 30% sale on Black Friday (11/25/16) on hand and power tools code HANDIT2YOU
 
That code will come in handy tomorrow. I will be buying a Milwaukee 12v grease gun to pair with my favorite tool of all time 12v 3/8 Milwaukee ratchet. Best tool in my mind if you do work around the automatics.

I wish I had known Vinh - I just sold my grease gun yesterday on ebay. The hose is proprietary and doesn't have a good bend radius, so it didn't work well on a lot of the fusion X fittings. It was OK on the wizard.

I just got a postcard from zoro-

25% on Dec 1 with $150 purchase code speedsaver.

20% off Dec -9th with $200 purchase code snowhaulz

30% off $500 or more Dec 13=14th code bigtoyz
 
Just used it---saved $106 on $425. Not sure how in the heck they do all these deals, plus free shipping. I just hope they keep doing them.

They do it by starting with a very high price. I can get most items that Zoro has about a third cheaper if I shop around a little.
