This is nuts!

Hey all,

I know ads and such aren't a good thing on these boards, but we're not affiliated with Fastenal or anything, and we found a steal. Thought I'd share, it may save some teams some $$ on a commonly used part this year.

Grade 2, 1/4-20 nylock, zinc finish - 1500 pieces for $18.30. That's $0.0122 each, pretty great for a nylock. Our local hardware store hits us for about $.45 each, and even online orders are much more. Ours just came in... 1500 nuts is a lot. We ordered and picked up from our from the local store so we didn't even have to pay shipping.

Happy shopping!
