            I had a co-worker who couldn’t stop bragging about an angle grinder he got for $5 at Harbor Freight.

            I thought that’s a pretty good deal, so I went in and got some gardening tools, in particular a shovel that was only a few bucks.

            The very first time I stuck that shovel into dirt, the metal head bent and sheared off.

            The next day I told my co-worker what happened, and he went on to admit his angle grinder only powered on one time before it broke. “But it was only $5!” He added.

            I think everyone gets their “one and done” experience there.
