I can vouch for the 2 blade thing. Don't ask me how I know :roll: Makes for a LOT of lint too!

Have patience Dina. Not sure how many times I went before I found them. Also ask what day they come in.

If I asked my husband where Harbor Freight was his eyes would light up and sparkle and he'd say "lets go"!!!! Then he'd ask me what I was going to buy for him!LOL

Harbor Freight is our favorite store too. It's the only store I don't have to beg hubby to go to.
