Harbor Freight stuff has its place. They're putting a new storefront in westland right next to the Michaels (craft store) that my wife loves to shop at. Next time she asks if want to go along I'll say "sure!" and freak her out.

When you can. Harbor Freight does have its place, and by shopping there you are still supporting American workers (the majority of the $$$ that you spend on Chinese goods is mark-up anyway).

That being said, I buy American whenever possible.
