  • I was once hauling a couple barrels full of cans to a recycling place. On the way back with the empty barrels rachet strapped in the bed of my truck I decided to stop somewhere to grab some lunch. When I came back out to my truck and started to leave one of the barrels imediately blew out of the back of my truck because some asswipe stole my damn rachet strap.

    Now I know stealing rachet straps isn’t unheard of but this was not a good rachet strap. This was the cheapest crappiest rachet strap I owned. This was a rachet strap I got in a pack of 4 out of a $5 clearance bin when I had to haul something and realized I forgot mine at home. Plus I had used this particular rachet strap as a makeshift tow strap at one point and I had to cut it to get it untied. So this rachet strap was only worth $1.25 when it was brand new and it was definitely no longer new. The empty barrels were worth way more than that strap. I wasn’t even angry they took it; I was just geinunely baffled.
