We first talked about this thing in the Lowes Hot Deals thread many months ago: Kobalt 5-Piece Reciprocating Saw Attachment Kit Item #: 537049 | Model #: 04517 My dad bought an old, disgusting clawfoot tub because...well, because my stepmother's basically a crazy person and demanded it...

A few months ago, my local Lowes found four ancient, dust-covered 18v Ni-Cad batteries and one charger somewhere. They slapped "non-stock item" clearance tags on them for $10 each. Needless to say, I bought 'em all. I was suddenly flush with Kobalt batteries, but had zero Kobalt cordless...

Once in a while, Menard's runs a sale ad full of US-made stuff. There's one starting tomorrow and running to Oct. 4. The link to the online flier isn't working yet, so here's some of the stuff I noticed: 22pc Eklind Ball-Hex Key set - Made in Franklin Park, IL Reg. $22.99, Sale $9.99...

I know it's kind of silly, but I bought one of those 1/2" Kobalt LED ratchets. When I saw them on sale for $5, I figured I'd tear off the stupid light thing and make it into a normal ratchet for a trunk tool box. Unfortunately, it turns out that the light assembly also keeps the detent ball in...

Basic red handle set is $17.09 right now. Cheapest they've gotten in a while. Recently, sales have only been bringing them down to $19.99. http://www.sears.com/craftsman-3-pc-pry-bar-set-in-tray/p-00943278000P?sid=IMx20120601x002000-CoreTools-activeusers&redirectType=SRDT

Did anyone else get this flier? The tagline in it is "Backing America From Your Own Backyard." I started flipping through it and...the tool page is loaded with stuff that has a COO of China. What the hell, Sears?

Every time I go to Menard's, I walk past this endcap full of Greenlee regular ol' power tools on clearance. They've been on clearance since the day they arrived. I think Menard's just bought a couple of truckloads for pennies on the dollar and sent a pallet to every store the way they do with...

edit: never mind. None of you guys can read English and you all have ADD.

Ridiculous offer for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. It's a corded Porter-Cable impact driver, well-reviewed everywhere. If I didn't already have a corded impact driver, I'd be all over this thing. It'll be on sale for $60 and then there'll be a $40 mail in rebate on top of that. Back when I...

Since getting a few pairs of Knipex Cobras, I haven't touched any of my Channellocks. It's gotten so bad that my father-in-law borrowed two pairs from my home box and forgot to give them back for almost two months...I never even noticed. I can't think of anything to use them for, at work or...

After seeing hundreds of pictures of people's tools in their boxes, I've never seen one particular thing that has a permanent place in mine. I worked in automotive for years, took a break, and then finally went back recently. During my break, I was in management in a Caterpillar transmission...

I know how much this forum likes to slam Sears, so I have my own customer service experience to share. My store currently has the corded impact drivers as a local special; about $25 off of the current sale price. I don't need an impact driver for home...at all...but I had $15 in SYWR points...

Does it need a good rolling? :lol:

My home cordless drill/driver was a 12v NiCad Milwaukee Hi-Torque from the 90s. I paid top dollar and got the best thing around with this purchase. The original two batteries amazingly lasted me until 2011. It has a 1/2 hour charger, so that's pretty sweet. The torque was good. It is quite...

http://www.menards.com/main/tools-hardware/power-tool-accessories/reciprocating-blades/20-piece-masterforce-reciprocating-saw-blade-set/p-1909719-c-10084.htm I've never used them, but they say they're made in the USA and they're cheaper than chinese Dewalts.

I don't know where this deal came from or how long it's supposed to last, but it's pretty hot. 10x 40 grit 10x 60 grit 10x 100 grit 10x 150 grit 10x 200 grit All sheets are full sized (9x11). Comes with a Craftsman sandpaper filing dealio for storage...

I got an advertisement email from Harbor Freight today. What stuck out was that it only had one item in it...so I looked closer at the polisher that I would normally ignore and saw that it's branded as "Chicago Electric Platinum." A search of the website confirms what I had thought...this is...

http://www.sears.com/wilde-tool-250df-bb-double-flaring-tool-44-bulk-box/p-SPM7428326003 I've never used it, so I don't know the quality, but that seems cheap for a double flaring tool made in the USA by a reputable company. Wilde has a good reputation around here, at least from what I've...

Dear Craftsman and Apex, Good job. You made a bit driver "for speed" that takes up the same amount of space as a drill. Love, Everyone

I chewed up my last #2 phillips power bit today right in the middle of a project. I have to drive past a Home Depot and a Lowe's on my way to work tomorrow, so I figured I'd grab something at one of those so I can get back to work on the project tomorrow night when everything is closed. I...
