Snag A Fubar 2 On Clearance
By Eric Dykstra
All of us here at Toolmonger dig Stanley’s Fubar line of demolition hammers. You can imagine my glee when browsing Target’s clearance end cap I found a model 55-119 Functional Utility Bar (or Fubar) on clearance for $15 — that’s half off its usual retail price of $30!
Target’s site lists the Fubar as an on-line only product, but I saw this model in Wal-Mart and Target brick and mortar stores around the holidays. I’m guessing Stanley made a push to get these out as Dad gifts, and now Target’s selling off any they have left.
You might not find one in your local store, but it’s worth a look around at this price. And if you happen to find one, put it in your cart — casually carrying one of these bad boys around the store will get you some wary looks.

Some people have been reporting that their local Target is only offering the FUBAR at $19.98. That is still a good price, so don’t hesitate and wait to see if it drops further.
I picked one up for $15 two weeks ago, and a week later when I went for another, the remaining six were already gone.

Make sure to scan the price before you take it up to the register, as Target clearance prices aren’t always universal (at least in my experience).
I wish I would have waited another week. I picked up mine as soon as I found them marked down to $20.

I brought my Fubar to work (telecommunications) and displayed it proudly on my desk. Strangely, all my employees are finishing their assigned tasks ahead of schedule now…

I doubt anybody will ever read this, but I just snagged the last one at the MD 198/295 intersection. $7.48! I was hoping they had more, I was gonna buy them all and then share with friends.

The Targets around here (Milwaukee) still have them, and have them for $7.48 as no one has moved them to a clearance section or really marked them down.
