When you order parts you honestly don’t need

What I hate the absolute most is when you absolutely KNOW that you have several of something that you need "right now" and just can't find. Most recent 2 cases in point over the last 2 nights in the garage
Hose clamps. I have a couple of boxes in each size. Couldn't find a #4 or a #12 last night.

The night before I was putting the distributor in my freshly rebuilt/6 and was looking for the 3 sets of O-rings that I bought from the Halifax guy a month or 2 ago. I remember thinking put them where I wouldn't lose them, where is find them easier.
After tearing the inside of my cab apart where I have all my spares stashed for that project plus a few, twice and they were nowhere to be had/
Came in and hunted online for a PN so I could find some more hopefully local to me.... Fel pro, Victor reinz, neither even had a listing for these I rings, almost like they never existed.
I wound up taking the one square cut one off my rebuilt distributor to put onto the NOS one that I have.
Well last night while searching for hose clamps what did I find? The plastic baggie of slant 6 distributor O-rings hanging on a nail by the door....
