You got taken (:-!!!!

They were on sale at Princess Auto for 8.88 last month

50 lb Dual Pulley Lift

Regular price 19.99

They work very well if you line the pulleys up. It doesn't pull up well sideways.

Four of them up on the garage ceiling now and 2 spares.

: Greetings Y'all

: I bought two of these bicycle storage lifts immediately when I
: spotted them at a local XSCargo store. I wasn't thinking about
: my bicycle when I spotted them. I figure that they will work
: well for raising a kayak to the ceiling in the garage with ease.
: I thought I should share this with those of you who are always
: looking for an easier way to get the kayak "up there".
: I haven't installed them yet...too darned cold in the
: garage...I'll do that come warmer weather or excessive boredom.
: Hope this gives you a new idea. PS: I bought them for about $26
: CAD each.
