Their prices on a lot of items aren't a deal by any means! It's like the first "hit" was free, and now they're sticking it to us! Luckily I rarely shop there (or anywhere, for that matter...I'm poor!). I found that the 10lb. spool of flux core wire was $2 less at HF than my local Airgas wanted for their name brand version, and there was NO way in heck I was going to pay that for cheap wire! I was blown away when I saw the price too, since most of their prices (used to be) 30-70% lower than any other stores prices!
