Wow What Happened To My Topic

I do not think i came across as whining. All i said was my timing sucked at getting 22 ammo. Thats it. I also said i would love to get some and give to another person that needed some to pass on the good luck or fortune.

My wife is an engineer for RMEP and she does make decent money but here is the problem. When i got sick in 2010 i had to go a year without any money coming in before i could get disability. So i lived off of 401k and IRA. I also brought home twice what she makes. I was the maintenance lead person for my department.

Now i owe 16,000 in taxes for getting my money out. Not to mention my doctor bills. 5 surgeries + chem/radiation. Then going to 3 different doctors 4 times a year plus now i have to go to the pain clinic 1 time a month.

Money is a little tight and i dont mind it. I just can not pay 50 dollars for 325 rounds. Thats the price around here.

In the last month i had to buy another car i got a 2012 Hyundi Elantra 28,000 miles plus i bought a new riding mower last week.

I have enough ammo for every thing else i just have a grand kid that just loves to shoot.

    I think most understand ,

    I post links when I see a good deal but a lot of times it's 2 or 3:00 am in the morning and never last long .
    I just ordered about 1000. more last night and received just under a 1000 last week , but like I said in the other post I have trouble sleeping so sometimes at night I am on here and just get lucky .
    I have been fortunate in finding it cheep and to be honest its become more of a fun game / challenge for me

    I saw nothing wrong either. The price of 22LR has been an issue for a few years now and I think most people are still unhappy about it. I sure would like to find a constant source. As Ditchrunner and others said "deals" on .22LR are few and far between...and don't last long. [:(]

    Nothing wrong with your post at all, Dave. I thought the sentiments you expressed were something all of us have felt. You don't need to explain yourself or your circumstances to people.

    There are often some people who just have to go over the top, down the other side, across the valley and back up again in their over reactions. It's an internet mind warpage, where people lose their self-regulation in the absence of the instant feedback they'd have in a face to face discussion. Not just the feedback of other people's comments but on the internet you lack the tone of a person's voice, a means to see and get that personal sense of circumstances.

    Perfect place for a person to let out their inner jerk, hand it a caffeinated beverage and no speed limit on their mouth ... I mean keyboard [;)]

    I regret my attempt to distract the errant party with cute and adorable pictures of common pets was less than successful. Next time I may seek out chubbier cheeks perhaps.
