January 2010 Monthly Roundup for Tool Snob

We reviewed a number of solid items this month. The Bagster is very cool (and we're on the verge of picking up another one) and the Ryobi camera is pretty slick as well. But because we've been getting pounded with snowfall after snowfall, we've carved out a special place in our hearts for the Troy-Bilt Snow Blower and the Milwaukee Heated Jacket. Without these two items, we might not have ever made it outside of the house.

We've got a bunch of good stuff lined up for this coming month too. Some jigsaw action, a little laser fun, some nailers....some compressors...blah...blah...blah...

Oh yeah, and my fingernail fell off. Actually, I ripped it off on December 31st because I weas going to a swanky dinner party and didn't want it to end up in the soup. It's days were numbered though, it was just hanging on by a little piece of stubborn skin. So congrats to Reader Rad for guessing the closest date. I shipped him a nice Craftsman low vibration orbital for his clairvoyance.

...and speaking of contests, don't forget to enter to win the $200 Home Depot gift card that we're giving away. Details here.
