If any of you get to north central wi I would suggest stopping at the Thorogood boots outlet store in Merrill, WI. Awesome prices on factory seconds. Also a few times a year they run a buy one get one 1/2 off sale at the outlet. Last time I visited I got 2 pairs of mock toes for $90. One was...

I bought a couple vintage porcelain light shades for my garage and having a hard time finding sockets for them. Does anyone know where I could find the sockets for shades like these?

Hope someone on here got it. I had it in my cart but missed it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Watch out on this. I bought the Fuel Impact/Drill kit with free Sawzall (or vacuum) for $329 about a month ago as a daily deal and the free item was not listed separately on the receipt so I couldn’t return it. I already had a non fuel Sawzall so ended up giving to my dad.

If anyone still has clearance Irwin stuff it now appears to be coming up at less than the marked price. I bought up enough impact driver bits of various types to keep me stocked for a while. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Does anyone know if the hard cases that come with the 2704-22 or 2753-22 kits will fit both a drill and driver? I'm thinking of buying both kits if Home Depot will price match Rural King. That basically gives me the 2897-22 kit with 2 extra battery's for $399 (I'm in need of batterys for my...

Has anyone tried these Sylvania bulbs? Specs appear as good as more expensive bulbs unless I'm missing something...

I bought all the sizes I was missing. Mediocre quality at best. Lots of chips in the cutting edge. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone know what this is? Found it digging through my wife's grandpas stuff. It looks like a triangle file but it is smooth. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It doesn't help when the Crescent stuff is cheaper and looks nicer than the MF stuff. If they want to charge a premium they need to provide a premium product not just an American flag. 36 tooth knurled ratchets and satin finished short length wrenches are hard to move next to 84 tooth polished...

I got the $5 in points yesterday and now today all my points disappeared!? I had $13+ in there. WTH!? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Anyone see the Made In America flyer? Any good deals? I've been meaning to get a few more 12ga extension cords to run my power tools, are those Flexzilla and Smart Electrician models descents you priced? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I went to Menards and did their garage builder today. 24x40 with 2x 9x8' doors. That gives me 24x24 for the cars and 24x15.5 for the woodshop. Came in at $11k for materials with the options I want. What's everyone's thoughts on prebuilt trusses vs rafters? I'm going to close in and insulate the...

I guess the questions being centered around what I can get away with is because these are the items I don't have enough experience to know if they are "nice to haves" or really needed. I've never had a full sized truck so didn't really know the full logistics. I have a compact car now so I've...

I've got a 20 x 34 garage sitting directly on dirt at the new house I bought. I was planning to raise it and put a footing/slab under it but am giving up on that idea and just starting over. This will give me the opportunity to build what I really need, not what was there. 1. I can go 4'...
