    Carlyle Tool Deals - Q1 2019

    I was very tempted by those. My only hangup is the case doesn't have a proper hinge. Seems to be an issue with other Napa brand socket sets. With the proliferation of variations of packaging for Taiwanese tools these days I refuse to buy anything with one of those flex hinges when a grey...

    Check the clearance isle if your still has one. Prices seem to have dropped on some items in a BIG way. Guy in front of me took everything (easily 50 items) but I saw the cashier ring up stuff like $0.17 orange Craftsman box cutters ($4.99 original) and similarly priced sanding belts and General...

    Carlyle Tool Deals - Q1 2019

    They actually did have those in stock at the Ontario California warehouse store if you need a set. I ended up just driving up there and got almost everything I wanted in stock. I don't get why the massive!!! Ontario warehouse won't ship to San Diego or anywhere else for free but LA and...

    Carlyle Tool Deals - Q1 2019

    Yep just as I figured, for the reversible metric ratcheting and long flexible metric reversible ratcheting wrenches, they wanted to charge me shipping. This was at a large corporate warehouse store in the 8th largest city in the country. Basically if you are in California, they are going to...

    Carlyle Tool Deals - Q1 2019

    Did you have any issues ordering the ratcheting wrenches? The metric shows out of stock online. My experience with out of stock Napa items has been you aren't getting them but if you can you will pay a steep shipping fee. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using The Garage Journal mobile app

    Napa Carlyle Screwdriver Sale

    I saw these in store last time I went. Good price for sure but ended up passing on them. If you look at the sides of the flat drivers there are deep finishing grooves in the metal. Just don't look very quality imo. Even my cheap harbor freight drivers are smooth on the flats with an even chrome...

    Best hose pinch off pliers

    Plastic Craftsman ones aren't USA anymore. Not sure anyone makes the plastic ones here at this time. Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using The Garage Journal mobile app

    I had this issue ordering online for even a car battery, which is stored right next to their counter. One store cancelled the order. The other fulfilled it but gave me the upgraded gold version for free, even writing it up as such on the receipt. I don't really feel badly since I'm essentially...

    Carlyle Tool Deals - Q1 2019

    If you own an older Toyota or some Honda products with a timing belt, this price is an absolute steal. It's Chinese but lifetime warranty. I paid almost 3x this much for a no name one on eBay a few months back. https://www.napaonline.com/en/p/BK_7769191 Sent from my Moto G (5) Plus using The...

    Yep my gut was telling me to order a bunch of stuff the other night. I didn't. And now 90% of the items at every closing hometown I looked at earlier are not just the normal sale prices, they are full MSRP. Wish I had gone for the 40%, that is clearly max online for closing discount. Typical...

    Anyone know what the online hometown store closing discount tops off at? It's all sitting at 40% off now, anyone know if it goes lower online right before the store closes or if I should pull the trigger now? Never really saw tool stuff in normal closing sears go below 40%, they just let it sit...

    This has been going on for awhile. I've posted here about -V- sockets showing up on the shelf. Recently went to a store and they put 40-50 sockets out as singles all USA and surprising many were -G- and -H- with only the single ball retention hole on the female end, not the 4 detents of the...

    Wilde Handle Pry Bars

    Those are super nice for the price. I prefer these earlier non striking pry bars to the striking because the handles are much easier to clean since they are smooth. For some reason everyone here disagrees on this. But I have both sets and they both have their place. Would grab that 36" in a...

    Apologies if already posted, but does anyone have a link to the list of closing Hometown Specific stores? Not the normal Sears, just the Hometown stores. Again if this is already posted or a laughable request please don't chew me out. Just seeing special pricing on the hometown website at...

    You guys are missing the point. Sure if you get the item who cares. I'm saying not everyone wants to tie up several hundred on their credit cards this time of year indefinitely if there is good cause the item will never ship. Glad you got yours, not everyone on this thread is as fortunate...

    Oh this was actually even more fun because it didn't ring up in their system anymore at all. They almost didn't want to sell it to me. Luckily the hometown website still listed it under "items no longer in stock" and I got them (after much arguing) to match that price since they couldn't come up...

    Was very close to buying that, ended up figuring since they were out of business I didn't want the hassle. I'd stay away from a bankrupt company selling the goods from another bankrupt company at this point. Really focusing on in store items now, especially those that don't show in online...

    The gearwrench metric flex ratchet wrenches are down to $25.49. Great buy if you don't have a set although hard to warranty if you break them. I had no luck getting my Canopy to ship yet, pretty sure I was one of the first to order if not the first. Either way Amex will get my $25 back and...

    Be careful buying stuff in store for today's promotion. I found several items that rang up HIGHER that the tags today. Both tools and clothes. Price check everything before you check out, and if it rings higher bring the tag from the hanger. Legally they can't sell for more than the posted...

    Stanley 69 piece socket set. No BS items, $30, HD

    And for the same $30 I can get a Pittsburgh Taiwan set that if I break anything it's covered at any of 500 plus locations. And yes I broke an 8mm, not covered at all with SBD unless I pay more than a new socket in shipping, no thanks. Bottom line here guys is SBD is getting these sets for like...
