$29.99 Creeper @ Fasenal

[t-bird]

What a great site this is!!!
I just went in the local Fasnal store to pick up my
Parts Bin Cabinets and the regional manager was in there and told me they just sent him a flyer on the (5100617)Carl Edwards limited edition racing creeper. Regular price is $166.53, now till the end of the year they are $29.99. They will have to destroy whats left after the new year because of a licence agreement. I ordered 2 at that price.

It is just like the parts bins, it is a store only sale.

Just called my store and they'll have it for me on Wed. for $29.99 and no shipping $$.

Ordered for next week. Thanks for the heads-up. May need to order some of the drawers too, any idea how long that sale will last?

 

[Orangestang]

Does any own one of these? How are they? I have a cheap atd one and I tired of my t-shirt getting caught up in the wheels sometimes....

 

[lotsoftools]

I think I saw that creeper on the back page of the Dec sale ad, but I'll have to find one to make sure. The drawers are on sale Dec only, probably the same with the creeper.

I just called to try and order one but they said they are sold out.

I just called to try and order one but they said they are sold out.

I just called and was able to place an order (though with some delay due to the blizzard in Indianapolis). Good luck if you try again.

 

[Howling]

Called another store nearby and said they will be in tomorrow, so I guess we'll see.

 

[In The Doghouse]

Anybody taken a ride on one of these things? They seem to be cushioned. If so, with 2 of them I could nap under the car.

 

[Galaxie]

Finally broke my $17 HF one, gonna have to go in tomorrow and see if I can get this.

 

[Chadwilliam1]

anybody have a review on these? I cant use a creeper on my driveway but if it is a good deal I might pick one up for later use?

 

[Chris Mallett]

Good luck. Closest one to me is Tennessee. West coast availability seems high.

 

[rsanter]

thank you so much for posting this
I have a store near me so I went earlier and they had one. they couldnt belive the price but it came up in the computer so they sold it to me for that price.
I asked if they can find me a couple more so they are checking a few other stores for them as they said it looks like they can no longer be ordered in

[Chadwilliam1]

[rsanter]

Haven't had a chance to use it yet but it looks like it will be nice. Hope to try it out tomorrow

As the old saying goes.....no good deed goes unpunished. I was the original poster of this deal and had ordered 2 of these creepers. I read where some on here had already started getting theirs. I called my Fasenal store today and apparently the clerk didn't get the order right, and I got screwed. They tried to re-order and it is showing no more available The Mgr is on vacation and the clerk has only been there about a month, so I will have to wait till next week to see about getting one. (not holding my breath!!!)

^^^^^^ I'm now getting the same story ^^^^^^^^^^^

I contacted my local Fasenal in Prattville,Al., and was told only the Canadian stores still had some left.

 

[Howling]

Well after I place the order yesterday they call back today and told me that they cannot get anymore he tried calling some other stores to try and locate some but not such luck.

 

[dave4512]

Well thanks for the post. I just called my Anchorage store and she ordered me one. I thought about getting two but I figured I should save some for everyone else. She was shocked by the price and hopefully it will come in with no issues, but if not I have a working one already just wanted something a little nicer then my cheapo.

 

[Galaxie]

Stopped by today and as soon as I said creeper they knew what I was talking about, claimed limited availability and all sold out nationally within minutes. Supposedly they ordered a dozen or so and I am on the list, we'll see what happens.

 

[In The Doghouse]

Now my local Fastenal dude says he hasn't been able to get me any creepers and will keep trying. I am beginning to believe it ain't going to happen.

 

[Rudyjr]

Called my local Fastenal yesterday and they told me the only ones they could find were in Canada. I checked online in some small towns and found one about 100 miles away. They called the store for me and found out it was in stock and said they would ship it to my store. I guess I will have to wait and see if this works.

I am kinda in the same boat. Local Fastenal tried to get me one but said all sold out nationally. I came home and found one about half way cross-country and spoke with the clerk. He checked with the manager (who had bought it for himself to give to his brother, but it turns out the brother already has one!). The manager said he would sell it to me and ship it to my local store! I might be in luck. I will have to wait and see if it actually shows up. I hope so.

Picked mine up today at the Fastenal down the street from our shop. They told me they sold two thousand the first hour of the promo. The price rang up at full retail but they overrode it for the sale price. Thanks for the heads up!

You might be the only one on this thread who actually gets one. My Fastenal order on 12/21 looks to be a no-hoper. How does the creeper look and function?

 

[Galaxie]

Funny they told me 4K in first 25 minutes. Still haven't heard from them on mine and don't expect to.

 

[Tack]

Why does it have a 60 on it? Shouldn't it have a 99 on it?

 

[mooman]

Carl's number in the nationwide series is 60.

Looks like a good buy for thirty bucks but no way I would ever pay full price. Seems to roll better than my old 70's vintage Mac, and will definitely be easier on the back.

 

[Galaxie]

Well now mine will supposedly be in next week. Never actually discussed price so now I am expecting that $166 or whatever ludicrous number MSRP was.

He only ran one Nationwide race last year... the glen.

Ordered one at the Yonkers NY before and got the call today to come and pick it up. When I got their the computer said $122 fortunately, I stopped by last week to see what the hold up was and met the guy I ordered it with. He checked and said it would be in this week. Anyway he could not get the computer to discount the price so I took $35.00 put it on the counter and left with the creeper. I told the guy when he figured it out he could keep the change after tax.

 

[In The Doghouse]

I never got the 2 that my local store promised me. Whatever, I have a good creeper and don't need another one.
If I tried selling on eBay shipping might be a big negative factor.

 

[Scrambler]

I just picked up my creeper today. Wow is that thing heavy compared to my little Craftsman creeper I have now. The store was having trouble with the price adjust because the computer wouldn't let them mark it down to $29.99. The guy said give me $25 cash and just take it. Wow an even better deal than I had imagined. Thanks for the deal!
