    I hope I can get some support from my FHC friends.

    Walked into Menards. Looked at the sales flyer.....tools, wood stoves, new lights and landscaping material, all on sale!

    Decided to be responsible...walked out with laundry detergent.

    But don't worry about me, some how, some way I will once again find my man card. :)

    Dang. Did the cashier take your man card or did you loose it before you walked in? I want to make sure this doesn't happen to me.

    There is always tomorrow to remedy this situation. It was on sale Brother......good friend always tells me after he has been shopping with his wife, they had to come home because they could not afford to save any more money.

    We should develop a new 12 step program for FWHA - Firewood Hoarder's Anonymous. It would be designed around situations just like this. Lose your man card? Join FWHA, and we'll help you recover.

    • Step 1 admit you have a problem.
      • "Hi my name is Schlot"
        • "Hi Scholt"
      • "I've come to realize that I've lost my man card and looking for a sponsor at FWHA to help me regain my man card."

    I made up for you last Monday...hit the Labor day sale at Menards...didn't need anything in particular, but I left with about $250 worth of stuff and only ~$40 out of my pocket (had a $172 store credit) best part is I will be getting about $135 of my store credit back after rebate...many of the things I grabbed there were free after rebate, except for the wiper blades, they were on sale for $3.97 and had a $4.97 rebate on 'em!!!...I love shopping at Menards!

    schlot, you are in good hands here....and your admittal is the first step to recovering your man card.....
    But perhaps you might want to show that you're ready to receive the card back into its former place?
    :rofl: :lol:
