Some stainless steel chain and cable connectors at a discount overstock type store for about 20% of their cost at lumberyards

The one by Ian Kershaw. It's the thinner version, not the double volumes.

Really exciting guys.  Four boxes of assorted miscellaneous bent-and-dent food (ground coffee, canned vegetables, soups, ramen noodles, etc.).  About 10 to 15 items in a box for 2 dollars each.  Nineteen cents an item.  Can't beat that price for coffee.

Hope it's good coffee.  8)

By definition, at less than a penny a cup it's good coffee.  BTW fixed dinner for 3 tonight - tomato soup, tuna sandwiches, fruit, tea.  Total cost (thank you great dented-tin-can goddess) was USD1.47. :2thumbsup:

My absolute favourite chocolate was for sale again in a discount place. Only have found it there, it's not often they have it.

Dark chocolate with lemon and black pepper.  >:D
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!
