Oh contraire!
I double and triple the Oh contraire!!!! I know it's an old discussion but it's not foolish frugality!!! Every piece you toss away cost you money and someone here on the board or in your community would most likely have a use for it.

I know when I pick up a tool it will perform like new because it is new.
