I need a pants with 12 or more pockets. Know of any deal?

I've been thanking you back You live an hour from the boarder, and I live 1hr and 30 mim from the boarder. Yes I know about the new exemptions, I called Canada boarder services about 1 month ago and they told me that this hopefully will happen soon (June). It is not 100% confirmed as it has to pass all the bureaucratic bs, but 99% that it will happen. Amazon, NE, buy.com and many others that I've been using lately no tax and free shipping are my preferred choices. I suggest you open a Bank Account with Chase or Bank of America, that way you will have US card with CBI address and if you are an android user, Amazon, will allow you to buy free apps everyday as long as that card is listed on your amazon account hint hint, also there are many more benefits of having US credit/debit card. Yes, I've singed up with SD + many more. I just subscribe to news letter. I can't do more RSS feeds, my head hurts from all of them.
12 or more pockets in your pants? sure I know of the site. That's where I buy mine from. tacticalgear.com Check it out, I recommend Blackhawk brand Reply With Quote
