Sometime before Christmas, Wally world and B-J's were selling hydraulic bike jacks for $99.95. I procrastinated for a couple of weeks about buying one. When I made up my mind to buy one, they were both sold out and didn't expect to restock them 'till next Christmas. Well, yesterday while in the W-W auto parts section, a bike jack in the box was leaning against the wall. I said to the manager, hey is that jack for sale? He says yep $89.95. So I said, I'll take it, and by the way, you ought to discount it because the box is ripped (I was actually kidding). Then he says $70. and I'll carry it out to the car for you. What a deal. I took it home and unpacked it and tried it out. What a beauty, I sure could have used it last week when I replaced the rear wheel bearing on my scoot. I think I'll go jack my bike up and check the oil. Happy trails.
