Can you use the 20% and the sale price together? I also cannot find a 20% coupon that doesn't exclude tool cabinets. Does anyone have a copy of one?

I've heard of a $599 coupon for the 56" roller cabinet if you're in the "inside track" club. Does anyone have one?

there are a few of the $699 coupons floating around for that unit. i was at the store looking at it. its soo much better than the popular 13 draw unit. they did revise the 13 draw 42" unit to have a nice new glossy finish. i just wish the slides we nice and smooth like the 56"

I've saved the pictures of the coupons on my phone and just showed them my phone, and it's always worked for me.

This has probably been asked and answered before, but, do they accept photocopies of coupons. If not does anyone know what magazine this coupon can be found in.

They do as long as it has barcode on it. At least that is what they just told me about 30 minutes ago. Funny thing is, I had a coupon ($99 shop crane) that I printed from here, and cashier could not scan it, so she just manually put the price in computer... :beer:

Due to jessadamessa's offer to take it off my hands, I dug mine out last weekend and messed around with it to see if it still worked. It barely ran and still didn't track. Then I noticed the belt (original POS belt) didn't look very straight, and one side was frayed and obviously looser (stretched slightly longer) than the other. So I bought a new belt at Menard's today, and with the old belt removed, it was plain to see that I had to adjust the screw so far that the tail pulley was nowhere near parallel to the drive pulley. I readjusted the screw, and with the new belt, it didn't take much adjustent to track the belt. It is plain to see, however, that the pulleys are not in alignment. I may align them tomorrow, but right now it works fine, and will be pretty handy from now on. It has plenty of power now that most of it isn't being used to pull the belt against the over-adjusted screw and against the side of the frame.

Now I'm glad I didn't get rid of it!



Glad to hear it man! Just got mine set up (with a new belt) and works great. Thanks for checking into that.

attached. but honestly, i would get the 5-drawer red one instead...

Agreed! I originally wanted the 4 drawer cause I didn't want something too bulky & cause it was black. Same size as my old beat up SO cart I was replacing. Checked out the 5 drawer & knew there was no question about it even though I hate the red. For only $50 more it's absolutely worth it. I would have gladly even paid the $199 price.

in case someone changes their mind... here's the $150 coupon

Anyone ever see the 5" Multi-Purpose Vise Item # 67415 on sale for less than the normal $80 less 20% = $64?

Larger, more capacity and much better built. I saw them side by side in the store, no comparison.

Does anyone have a copy of the 10x15 "portable garage" (lot no.68217) coupon for $179.99 -they could scan? In the flyer that i have now it says it's on sale for $229- but of course I know they have a better coupon out there!
Thanks in advance!

What is so better about the 5 compared to the 4?

I bought the 4 drawer having not looked at the 5 drawer. I could kick myself for doing it.

The red 5 drawer cart is much sturdier and better built. Don't think its only a 1 drawer difference, the dimensions of the red cart are much larger. If the lid is not down on the black cart and it is rolled around, the drawers come open and the cart will tip. The red cart has locks that you have to slide to open the drawers.

The 5 drawer cart is very well worth the additional $50. If you only have a basic tool set it will easily hold all of your tools. If you have a large set it could definitely hold your most commonly used tools.

The black 4 drawer is still worth the super coupon price of $99, I just choose to get one of each.

Yes it is definitely worth the $99. That's what I paid for mine. Its comparable to other more expensive carts. I in no way meant to bash it as mine has served me well. But if you're just shopping for one, the red cart is a no brainer.

Thank You for the info Recoil Rob but unfortunately the intended space I have for something like this fits a 10x15 at max - with only a few inches all around to anchor it- I'm hoping to put it between the house and fence- so it seems I am stuck with this option- as it is the only portable shed/garage that I have found that utilizes that space (about 11x16)-
I'm actually wondering if it is unrealistic to kind of tetris it in there- So, if anyone has any info on doing something like this- please let me know- I am just trying to figure out a semi-permanent way of storing stuff in bins outside -we have no garage :-( and financially (and with limited space)- this seems the way to go
Thanks
P.s. still looking for that coupon... :)

This might be a good link.

I found a few things here that I am planing on getting. And I think they are all good to use the 20% off coupon with too!

Unfortunately you can't stack coupons meaning you can't use the 20% off coupon with an ITC coupon or any other coupon. But you can use the 20% off coupon on the in store sale price.

Also, you must have an ITC membership to use those ITC coupons so they're not valid for anyone. They're suppose to verify your membership when presenting these coupons.

I'm still thinking if the ITC membership is worth it. For some items you can actually get them cheaper with a magazine coupon or 20% of a sale price than with ITC coupons but then again there are a lot more items that discounted with the ITC coupon that don't go on sale or have coupon often. I only buy certain things from HF so I think I'm good without it.

yeah, i have ITC and I'm not sure the benefits are necessarily that great. the ITC coupons are not always the best prices. like you said, some magazine coupons or sale items + 20% coupon can result in a better deal at times. i did make up for my ITC membership cost already since they gave me a gift card and using ITC coupons I bought some stuff at a pretty good deal and sold them on ebay. basically in the end it didn't cost me anything. i also use my ITC to help friends buy stuff they want with the ITC coupons. but i'm not sure i would renew it when the time comes. if they guaranteed lowest price with the ITC coupons, I would be more inclined to renew.

I have brought ITC coupons in and no one has ever asked for the card. They probably will tomorrow....

ITC only costs $20.00 when they apply the $10 gift card to the membership. It's not hard to recoup the $20.00 over the course of a year.

On large purchases such as the 56" toolbox that is $300 off with a coupon, can you get more than one at that price or do you have to buy one and come back another time? Anyone run into issues with this? I am considering buying a couple and need to know if I need get buddies to buy the others to get the savings?
