Look at Mr. Money Bags buying the specialty loose nuts and bolts.

They're like $2.50/bolt these days. God dam

It's also ridiculous the markup on fasteners. I used to work in nuts and bolts and the going rate was like 90-97% markup on fasteners.

To be fair, when you absolutely need that one or two special bolts to put your lawnmower back together, the markup isn't a big deal.

Otherwise, I'm buying stuff by the box, and starting to prefer metric more and more.

Cheaper than the ones that come in the little baggies.
