Some advertisers have "crawlers" that are able to pick up particular words on a chat board. They base their ads on the words that are picked up. Harbor Freight must have picked up their name on this board .... therefore they are advertising. :D

I noticed that the minute they found out that quilters wanted the blades the price jumped 50 cents a package and they can't keep up with the demand.

I know that their paper ads will be changing also. Their "free" items will no longer be free since "too many people are taking advantage of them". Got that from a store manager just last week when I went in and bought a battery charger and got a free tarp and a free pair of gloves.

The HF that I go to can't get any blades in....they are on back order :(
