I bought the Menards Channelock screwdrivers today. I knew they were made in China but still got them based on the features and some comments here in this forum.
I also have many Channellock pliers and today I bought these made in China Screwdrivers (26 pieces). Hope they deserve the Channellock name and are backed up by the Channellock warranty.
The local Menards did not have this set but they have the 7 pc set at regular price.
There is a single 1/4" x 8" square shank flat balde on clearance for $2 (regular $10). There is also a GreenLee 12" adjustable wrench for $10 (regular $20).
These are in store only. In my local Lowes, there are a couple big signs about this, one in the toolbox area and another in the isle near the plier sets. There are toolboxes there as well.
Also my local Lowes (ZIP 49307) has these DEWALT 12-Piece Magnetic Drive Guide Set for $10.97. They have a $10 off $50 coupon on them. The coupon should expire on OCT 2010 but Lowes will honor them. Must be some old stock they had in the back from last year...
This deal has come up before but Lowes has it again in the stores.
Buy Kobalt 26" Blue/Gray Polypropylene Tool Box for $29.98

Now the link to the Shoplet set changed to the Amazon set, priced at $169.68.
On the Shoplet Amazon Storefront, the item is still there for the low price but it is not available.
I also ordered one set from Shoplet and the status very quickly changed to "Shipping Soon". That means it cannot be canceled.
If they ship something other than the sockets, I am sure Amazon will take care of the problem.
Thank you, usdemt, for the find.
