The other things that I found at our local HF was the little magnetic parts dish. I like to sit in the TV room and hand sew and this keeps my scissors, needles and anything else dangerous, right in the dish. I can't tell you how many needles I've'lost' on the couch...but my husband can. OUCH! Also, I found a telescoping mirror that is really small, about 2" diameter. I thought this would be very handy for threading the 'loop' on my serger. Haven't tried it yet but it moves in all directions and is just the right size. Now, you ladies, don't all go at the same time and bombard HF!!

False alarm
On the website, it says my order shipped, I got a card in the mail telling me my order was backlogged. Contacted them and they said the same. The item I purchased is on back order. Guess I am with the rest of you in waiting.

My visit to Harbor Freight was very informative.

I told the cashier I was checking on the blades. She said she would check to see if they had any in the stock room.

She followed that with telling me the computer stated the Warehouse is out of blades. They are ALL GONE!!!
Blame the Quilters.

She gave me a rain check and said it would be 4 or 5 weeks and asked how many packages I wanted. I asked for 10. I will parcel them out according to who wants them and how many. Should I have reserved more? Who wants and needs blades???

I just got a card from them, saying they were still on backorder and wanting to know if I still wanted them. If not I was to send the card back. I did not. I will wait on backorder, since I do have some blades to work with, I appricate your offer to get a rain check for the rest of us who need them. If I don't receive any blades by Oct, Nov, then I may ask if you could get a rain check or have some sent to me, since I do not live near any harbor freight.
Thank you again

I also got a postcard in the mail telling me to send the card back if I wanted to cancel the order. I can be very patient for such a good deal as this!
