I know a lot of you shop at Harbor Freight. Do me a favor, clip out the coupon on Page 98 and use it. Thanks!

I am so using that, those three copies a month are going to pay off now, $17 for a creeper is pretty cool too, any feedback on that?

Our readers buy stuff, they keep advertising, my paycheck gets covered, the guy at the porn and malt liquor store stays in business.

So, yes.

Thanks.

I haven't seen the ad yet, my perscription ran out, Is it the red plastic one with the big wheels? If so that puppy is nice, comfortable, place for some tools, light, and rolls on the rough surface in my parking lot quite nicely.

ehh....wasn't trying to sound like a dumbass....but maybe I am.... I realize magazines/periodicals/websites depend HEAVILY on advertising dollars..

more legitimately phrased: Can HF tell the coupon used was from GRM? is the barcode assigned to GRM?

And yes....the Porn and Malt liquor store guy gets a portion of my paycheck too

That's a good question. The ads have dedicated websites for the CMS and GRM ads, so I imagine that they're tracking them somehow.

Also, I was totally tempted to print out a copy as soon as the ad file came in and rush down there and spend some money, but that would be wrong, so I waited until the next day when the store was open to print out a copy and go down and buy stuff.

Thank you for placing the coupon on a page that has an ad on the reverse. Nothing worse than clipping a coupon, only to find you've removed the most important bits of the feature article...

I was just about to ask if the HF coupon is good for online purchases since there aren't any HF stores nearby.

The coupon has a bar code that is specific to GRM. There will also be a coupon in the the November issue of Classic Motorsports.

While holding the magazine, turn the page, and look at what is on the other side....worked for me, your mileage may vary.

I read this at work and got excited because I really need a jack and saw that coupon in my other car mags. I nearly teared up when GRM wasn't in my mailbox though. I hope it shows before the weekend so I can use the coupon at the HF in Portland.

hell yeah...autoweek ran a similar ad. Gotta use that compressor coupon and the 20% off coupon on something else...the harbour frieght down the street from my house is gonna hate me

And for anyone wondering about that jack, great purchase i think half the people that locally auto-x use it, purchased one months ago when i bought my rx7 (i knew i was going to need it) and thus far very happy with it
