3 days after I break down and buy my own grease gun for $25 to keep in my garage off the farm, I stop at a rummage sale on my way home from work and there are 2 grease guns for a buck each. They are older, but both work just fine. One had a pipe on it, the other a hose with a small hole in it. (use them on the tractors to keep it on topic)
Needless to say I picked them both up and brought them home to the farm. I had already put the tube of grease in my new one and used it the day before so I can't return it now, but atleast we've got a slightly higher chance of finding a grease gun on the farm....
I also found a 2 gallon Stancan gas can that looked new inside, and the spout was still good for another $1. He also had a plastic 1 gallon Wedco gas can that needs a spout for $.25 Also picked up a few older Tonka trucks and a loader, about 20ft. of #55 flat chain, and a bunch of door hardware that will work in our old farm house.
Gave him a 20 and got some change back.... I think that qualifies as a good day.
