So I bought some Ikea furniture this weekend for my kid's room. The pieces were partially packed with this really nice honeycomb cardboard. The sheets are about 1 1/4 inches thick. Pieces are of various sizes, from about 12 inches by 3 inches to about 12 inch squares. They look exactly like...

I have just about run out of stuff worth buying at Sears with my surprise points. Does anyone know if all the Craftsman singles are still USA made? I put together a really nice set of the old Professional Deep Offsets recently. Now that I have those, I may just start filling in gaps here and...

I thought that it would be a good idea for a thread to catalog tools that most people are unaware that you can buy at Sears. I get SYWR points often and sometimes have a hard time finding stuff to buy. Let's keep our Sears bashing elsewhere and focus on the unexpected tools that you can find...

I have always had good experiences with Craftsman wood chisels, although mine get pretty light use. They have black handles with metal striking caps and are made by Western Forge. My store only has a few of these chisels left. They are being restocked by Chinese-made chisels. Good news is...

This seems like a nice deal on a set of slotted screwdrivers. I don't have much use for slotted, so I figured I would put it up here: http://www.sears.com/craftsman-professional-4-pc-professional-slotted-screwdriver-set/p-00901191000P Free shipping eligible (probably for SYWR members).

Hi, I am thinking about buying some VIM-branded hex sockets. It seems like they get very solid reviews on this site. They seem to make a couple of different kinds though. I was hoping that you could help me to decipher what is the real difference. The first are the chrome satin finish...

This is a special for today (12/17) ONLY: http://www.staples.com/Tekton-3-8-Inch-and-1-2-Inch-Drive-Impact-Socket-Set/product_1463824 This seems about $20 lower than amazon. Shipping is $9.95, or you can pad the order to $49.99 to get free shipping. Some people with Staples accounts should...

http://tools.woot.com/offers/knipex-combination-pliers-8-inch-7?ref=cnt_wp_3_8 So I know that people have different opinions about Woot, but this looks like a great deal. I bought two pairs and used "SAVE10NOW" code to get 10 off of 25. $5 to ship. This worked out to $22 for two pairs...

I know that some of us have bought from this guy in the past and had good experiences: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Snap-On-1-8-Flat-Tip-Screwdriver-SGD3046BR-/231282869151?hash=item35d988839f&item=231282869151&pt=Motors_Automotive_Tools&vxp=mtr He also has a pack of three available for around $13...

I don't know whether this is an ongoing deal, or just a fluke when I checked my points today. Try this link: http://www.shopyourway.com/craftsman-2-pc-adjustable-pliers-set-7-in-10-in/291472 I think that you are going to have to buy through the Shop Your Way site. The current price is listed...

I am a newbie with these old drill presses, but some of your restorations have made me really jealous. This one has been floating around on Craigslist near me and I was wondering whether anybody could help me identify it and tell me whether it is worth doing a restoration on...

It looks like this is through a third party seller on Sears.com, so I don't know how many of you will be able to get in on the deal before it sells out. DeWalt 12 inch bar clamp-2 pack for $25.68. It looks like shipping is free. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_SPM7537691702...

Browsing around at Sears and found these: http://www.sears.com/dewalt-dominator-6pcsmoke-lens-6pc/p-00929803000P?prdNo=3&blockNo=3&blockType=G3 This could be a pricing error, but I grabbed the only set left at my Sears and will pickup probably tomorrow. It looks like the listing is for six...

I need a nice set of screwdrivers. I am not a mechanic; just a regular DIYer. I am just tired of fussing with bad tools. I bought some multi-bit drivers on Enderes days and it has been a revalation to work with well made screwdrivers. I was eyeing Felo Ergonics on amazon, but I have some...

These seem like a good deal. It got even better when Sears gave me $5 SYWR points to spend with no minimum. $5 out the door. http://www.sears.com/crescent-double-x-bent-long-nose-pliers/p-00929318000P?prdNo=7&sid=IAx20050830x000545&aff=Y&PID=4485850&AID=11042411 I can see how these could...

So I have a quick series of questions to ask. I have put a few Dimmer switches in my house. I used the Pass & Seymour/Legrand ones that Lowes sells for around $30. They are designed for CFL and LED lights: link I have paired these with CFL flood lights from Costco, 65W replacement. They...

Okay, so I was going to order up a Harbor Freight 44 inch box and probably just pay for the shipping fee. I have been thinking about this for way too long. I have considered the bigger HF box, but the 44 seems fine for me. But then I saw this on Craigslist, but the deal seems too good to be...

I have a central AC system in my house. Occassionally, I can hear the condensor struggling to turn on. The thermostat will trip and I can hear the condensor begin to start, but then shut down after about three seconds. About thirty seconds later, it will try again. Sometimes, it does this...

So I was wondering what everybody's experience was with paying the $89 shipping charge on the HF 44 inch box. I only have small cars, and I don't really have a good way of getting one of these out of the Home Depot/Lowes truck once I get it home. So the way that I look at it is: Buy in Store...
