Protractor & Calculator deals

[Anole]

Back to school, Sat Guys !

I was driving home today, and heard an advert on the radio for some stuff that any self-respecting Sat Guy could use.

Here's a Protractor, and it's on sale for 5¢, right now.
Limit of five pieces, so that a quarter (yes, 25¢) plus tax, for a long-term supply.

See also the thread on a fine use for one:

Build several and give to all your friends.
Think, "early Xmas present".

Okay, this next item is a little less costly.
It's a Sharp scientific calculator, which is free after $7.00 mail-in rebate.
I have several, picked up on similar sales where the final price was $2 or $3.
Let me say, that no self-respecting Sat Guy should be without one. :up
They are really great.


edit: this is an in-store deal, good 10 Aug, through Sat 16 Aug, 2008

Sorry, the protractor deal was only good through Wednesday.
My error.
Hope everyone got a hand-full.
I got my five. - - (I only went once)

The scientific calculator should be good through Saturday, assuming they have quantity on-hand.
I have two, from years gone by, and love 'em!
Plus, Sharp is very good about the rebate checks!

The calculator sounds like a great deal. I may get one if I can find a holster for it. I remember the good old days when we carried our sliderules on our belts.

Yea, good idea. -

So, let's see now, that's . . .
Calculator: free
Holster: $20
The reminder of slide rules: Priceless!
