2022-02-14-- Benjamin Um writes:  Good news! @William Stillwell ( KI4SWY ) and I have been talking with the management at the new Rockler store in Brandon to get the Hackerspace "Guild" status for a 10 percent discount. Talked with both managers last week and was told that they have been given approval to give us a 10 percent discount. At the moment, all we need to do is inform the person at the checkout counter that you are a member of the Tampa Hackerspace and that you would like the "Guild" discount for your purchase. Not all items are eligible for the discount (e.g. power tools). I personally have taken advantage of the discount this past Saturday. They are currently doing a soft open before the official store opening in March, so please be patient with the employees, because they are all new to everything.
