I live really close to a sears. They usually have a decent amount on clearance. So I go over there and they have 33198 on clearance. 33198 is the second module of their 1500 piece set. Original price is $699. It said used, so I tried to count all the piece in the box (most were in their original packaging). So my wife says "you never buy anything for yourself, go get it before I change my mind." So I did. All the pieces were there and pretty much not used. There were two duplicates and that's ok with me.

So I also study the craftsman catalog. I know that 33300 is their first module and it's normally $649.99. However the 2010 catalog says that it's $599.99. Just recently they had an online only special of $250 off. So I went to the store and told him, I wanted it for $349.99. The manager comes over and says "yeah we'll match it."

So in two days, I got the first two modules for $500 less than normal.


They'll come in handy because I'm going to look at a 1969 chevy nova today :D



I was going to post this in the hot tool deals thread, but when I went to link it from sears, even though the sale was supposed to go thru the 10th, it's not there anymore.

Wait what? This does not compute. You lost me.


Seriously, that sounds like a good score and probably will force you to now ask for a bigger box! :thumbup:

I don't have a tool chest yet. I built my workbench with 27" to the right so that I can get a 8 drawer craftsman ball bearing with griplatch tool chest and then the top to match, and eventually an intermediate.

She doesn't know about the 33300 ... I neglected to tell her about it
