Scored some Dutchboy "Extreme Hold" exterior paint, regularly $30 a gallon for $5 today at Walmart.  Closing that line out I think, people might want to check their Walmarts.  I got two gallons of actual white, but they had light and dark tint bases as well.

The last cheap mis-tint paint I bought was pretty expensive...I paid for it and it's been sitting around unused ever since.

Bees don't care if their boxes aren't painted.  ;)

I've got a Buddy that clears out foreclosed homes and he gives me paint for free. Just picked up about 50gal from him (10gal was pink :oops:)

"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag...We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...And we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people."

Good deal there.    Wish I could find some, in white of course.   :-D

Oh, and it's actually "Extreme Adhesion"  not "Extreme Hold".  Thinking about it, "Extreme Hold" is probably hair gel. :-D  Yeah, I know the bees don't care about painted, unpainted, white or hot pink - but the hubby does, and since he is putting up with what he terms a "mania" it's the least I can do. :roll:
