So all you got to do is find a way to break them.

I never get sucked into them TV or Radio advertisements be cause most of the time they do not work or there junk.Same Rules apply for these people that sell at malls and stores

False advertisement about 95% of them time.They Can clame this and that all they want to try to convince you into buying another pice of junk item that barely last a year.

Now i do know of a knife that does not rust Ceramic knives they are VERY Sharp and can cut lots of stuff.But draw back is they cost alot be cause they are hand crafted by Experts *** that make Swords.

Glad you did not get taken in on that deal.

Does your fishing tackle box have a Ginsu?

Fish is nasty. People need to let those nasty creatures stay in the ocean so I don't have to smell them when I walk through the supermarket trying to buy REAL food.

I sometimes shop at this Asian supermarket. The place is fairly big (there are two sides) but the aisles are very narrow and the place is usually packed. I shop here when I'm looking for non-American products (meats, fruits, veggies) and they are usually pretty cheap (unless you want American items, I once saw a box of Cheerios for $5.99 ).

The smell of that particular section is just awful but I still love this little place. Nothing I've ever bought from there has ever let me down taste wise and I'm not the type of person who is very adventurous in trying new foods.

I feel your pain, Dy. I have been known to block my nose and run by when passing the Asian Fishmongers at the Markets . My g/f thinks I am a nut, which I quite possibly am, but hey, I just don't like inhaling stanky fish on a Sunday afternoon. Smells like to me. Fresh fish smells fine to me, but that one makes me wanna .

and it does to almost everyone else, so if your store has stinky fish because it's not quite fresh, might want to think twice about the rest of the goods being hocked there.

but if the Asian's are raslin' up some lutefisk that's another story complete

My shop is next to an Oriental take-out place that sells fish heads (no kidding) and other mystery seafood. When they burn something (usually at least once a day), the smell drifts into my store.

I go through at least one can of Febreeze or Glade every week.
