If you haven't already found out they are HEAVY and for some
people here may be a bit much to pull around even empty.
That being said I really like mine but I walk ~10 miles a
day just for exercise

Make sure you check the pressure in the tires and keep an
eye on it. They tend to slowly leak and then it is even
harder to pull around.

Mine came from Menards for ~$50 on sale several years ago. I
think you got a good deal too, especially from TSC. I rarely
find any "deals" there since they bought out Farm & Fleet
several years ago. Though there stock on hand is much better
now and I do buy things there that I can't find somewhere
else (shrug).

Yeah they can be kinda heavy. My sis has one that has the tire problem
you described. Every now and then TSC has some pretty good deals. It
helps when you have friends there to let you know what is on sale and
when! Used to buy the All-Stock feed from there, but that has become
way over-priced. When the local store opened, All-Stock costed $4.78,
currently the price is over 7 for it. Started getting elsewhere now.
Oh well.............

If you have (and your sister for that matter) access to a
valve stem tool, check the valve core in the stem and make
sure it is snug. Some of the better steel stem caps have the
little tool built into the end of them too.

That may slow the leaking down some. I haven't checked mine
out too seriously but I think my bicycle tires hold air
longer in between pump-ups
