Grizzly Free Shipping Offer ends Sept. 19th....

Blog entry by Brad_Nailor posted 67 days ago 231 reads 0 times favorited 7 comments Add to Favorites Watch

Hey all you fellow procrastinators..

I have been waiting to finish my barn building project so I can order my new G0690 table saw…just don’t have the room or the time to deal with a new saw. I was home sick from work today so out of curiosity I called Grizz and asked them when the free shipping gag was ending…and to my horror he said Sept. 19th…this Saturday! Wow I’m still not quite ready to take delivery of the saw yet but thats $144.00 I would save on the shipping. He told me they will delay shipping by up to 2 weeks and if you pay with a credit card they don’t charge the card till they ship the item.
He did say that there is a chance they might extend it…but it’s a crapshoot..he couldn’t say for sure…

cant you find a spot to just let the saw stand in? eve inside the barn? garage? basement? friend? it’s definitely something worth taking advantage of esp. since you’re going to order the saw anyways sometime soon…

build a little tent around it even? (the possibilities are endless)

Simple solution: Move the dining table out to the car port or driveway.

Brad, if you are fairly close on drying in your barn, if all else fails and you don’t have room for it anywhere, order it with the 2 week delay and rent one of those small storage units for a month and put it in there. Even if it cost you $50 for the rental you’ll still be ahead of paying for the freight.

I guess I will have to order it and then delay the shipping by two weeks..then it should take it a few days to get here…by then I hope to have the garage stuff moved into the barn…Ya, 144.00 discount is too good to pass up! I am really close to being done with the storage barn..I have to shingle the roof and build some doors and trim and a final coat of paint…I am soo close!

Look at it this way, a great motivator to get the barn finished up!! Sometimes we do our best on a tight deadline with a little pressure on.
