Just so you don't feel special, that is not just a female thing. My wife always has a go at me for going out shopping wearing my work gear; and not just any work gear, but one of my stained with everything, printed workshirts with my business name and phone number across the back of it. But the fact is if I am getting any prices or buying anything tool or construction based it makes a big difference to service and price. Especially at the big B where they do not question you or try there dumb sales techniques on you if you look remotely like you know what you are talking about. When not in a major chain stores it makes a big difference to price.

Interesting at Timbecon today the two girls in the shop were the knowlegeable ones whe were telling the guys where everything was and how many were left. Also visted a second hand dealer today that is known to be the Tradie's store and stock heaps of tools - owned by two ladies.
