both 18 piece sets are going to Demon4x4 and Frednoah.
10 piece set should still be there if anyone wants it.
As for you Bolster, I'm pretty darn sure they're not made here.. you can order it and send it back if they aren't, but from what I've seen, you're going to get Taiwan or China made tools.

If they are made in the USA, that's pretty sweet, however, the fact remains that for just a few bucks more, you could get some Channellocks, which we KNOW are made in the USA and in my opinion, are better in terms of quality over the Stanley.
Nothing "wrong" with the Stanley pliers, if they're to be used for light-to-moderate work, but I wouldn't expect to be employing them full-time and have them hold up as well as say, Channellocks.
Of course, you could always go German...

I suppose this pushing it as a "tool," but I needed a second small Shop-Vac and just picked up a Vacmaster brand at Target for $15 including tax. It had been marked down twice, so I guess ymmv.

Other places list this as Made in USA as well... if they think they're selling Made in USA stock, they probably are.
3 peak hp, wow, that is a SMALL motor, less than half the size of my shopvac I think.

Those are Pratt-Read I believe...
Masterforce screwdrivers at Menards are almost 50% off with MIR, decent screwdrivers and theyre made in the USA
anything plugging into a 120VAC 15A circuit isn't realistically going to do more than 2.4HP... or you'll exceed the 15A on the circuit and trip the breaker. the HP ratings on a lot of "tools" are exaggerated...

What ad is this in? It doesn't show up in the Garage Clean Up ad, which is the only one I see going on right now except the 11% rebate...

Just a followup on HF coupons at Lowes and HD. Went to both this morning in Harper Woods, MI. Lowes says they have a new policy NOT to accept them. HD still does no problem.
And to make this correct for the hot deal index, I picked up the 8" USA made Crescent adjustable to go with the 10" from the other day. It had been marked down to $7, but was now $6 and with the 20% was $5. Maybe I'll get another for the grand kids toolbox.

Gray Tools SAE and Metric Stubby Wrenches $61/Shipped
Not sure about posting links to eBay listings (no affiliation), but I found this deal and thought I would post since Gray is so hard to find in the US and expensive. The ad did not show if these were Made in Canada, so I emailed the seller and they updated the listing with a better description and added another picture of the wrenches showing country of origin. They said these are close outs from a industrial mining store and didn't have much info except that they are industrial black oxide finished. I tried scaling the 19mm wrench and I'm guessing it is in the neighborhood of 6.25"! I bought 2 sets, and think there are about 10 more available. 2 complete sets 6mm-19mm and 1/4"-3/4" with wrench racks for $61 shipped! They also have the metric set by itself for $43! I called Gray to check on a price since they aren't on their website and they thought they may have been a special production run for the mines as the part number on the 12mm refers to the same wrench, but in chrome. These are pretty large sets, so I would think they would be well over $250 based on comparing similar chrome vs. black oxide on other websites. I just ordered today, so I cannot speak for the quality, but think they will be well worth the price. Anyway, I hope someone finds these useful!

Anyone have screen caps of the 10 and 18 pc wrench module with its lower price?
My sears also had quiet glide intermediate 3 drawer chests on clearance for $50 each (black and red) and a ton of 2 drawer quiet glides for $25(black only). As well as Five or six 6 drawer top boxes for $100... I resisted the urge to buy any since I want a new HF gloss red box.

Awesome! Thanks. Been looking for a nice set of stubbies.

I couldn't pass those stubbies up, especially since I had an unused eBay groupon burning a hole in my e-pocket. Thanks!

Grabbed the last set of stubbies. Made an offer, waited a few minutes, and then saw only one set was left so I grabbed them up.
Thanks!

sh*t...too late...
Anybody who just bought multiple sets of the Gray stubbies want to sell one, metric and standards? I have been needing a set for the truck and missed these. PM me if you would part with one set and what your price would be shipped to Missouri 65101.
Thanks,

you can buy the 23pc. set direct from their website. Comes out to be $56.89 shipped from Canada to the US. Cheaper than their ebay auction.

I typed in seveal brands and came up with everything but what I wanted. Nice easy way to start a business. Getting kick back for every sale is smart.
Sorry but I could not get it to work and if you can think of it I more than likely already have it or don't need it.
I never buy new tools or machinery. Only parts are new and many times they are used.

Big thumbs up for this link. I just ordered a set. I've been needing another set to keep in the truck for awhile and these fit the bill perfectly. To anyone who was considering selling me a set they ordered thanks but I'm covered now.
Thanks again,

Another big thumbs up for the link. They were out of the 23 pc set, but I was able to pick up 2 of the 14 metric sets for $58 ($19 per set plus $20 shipping). 4 sets still available a minute ago. Much better deal than the $43 for the same set still on Ebay.

They went quick. when I posted the link they showed 10 sets in stock. Glad I bought mine right away!
Those Gray "stubby" wrenches are misnomer. They are really a intermediate size wrench between a true stubby and a normal full size wrench. I seen that auction about 2 months ago and did not pull the trigger because of them not being traditional stubby sized.

Anyone have any information on any Sears tool deals starting tomorrow? I heard something on the radio about a tool sale starting This Friday but didnt catch the whole ad.
i don't know... the president's day sale just finished... but if anyone does know of some tool sale, especially online free shipping promotion, i would love to know too... there's something i want to get, but it's expensive to ship...
Double thanks on these codes!!!
Good deal + free shipping on the power tools + free tool deal on the Milwaukee M12 series through Milwaukee rebate.....
Forgot to add 4% additional off if you go through ebates

I wish the 18 pc. set would come back. I really wanted that and was pissed when my order was cancelled.
