I've already begun adding items to my cart.
Last year it was prybars, this year I'm thinking screwdrivers.

I'm putting together my list. With or without any extras, I'll be placing an order on HJE day.

Epstein's Day Update!
So we're still waiting to hear back from SK. Needless to say the ratchets will not be ready for July 4th, but we'll come up with something fun to offer including the official Epstein's Day t-shirt.
Norseman is giving us significant discounts on some of their drill bit sets. We'll be offering their 29 pc. Cryogenic drill bit set for $99.95. They have a 4 pc step drill bit set for $99.95 as well. Lastly we have an 8 pc. 1/2" reduced shank silver and deming set 118 split point for $157.50.
Wright Tool is giving us 5% off all of their sets. Not much I know, but enough at least to make up for shipping costs. Also, the first 50 people to buy over $225 in Wright merchandise will get a free #3427 3/8" Drive Flex Head Ratchet.
Epstein's (that's us) will be offering deals on these made in the USA products:
3pc USA Super bar set for $10.00
2 pc Diamond Auto Wrench Set 16" & 10" for $37.50
Craftsman Punch and Chisel Set for $40.00
15 pc Husky Screwdriver Set - $25.00
3/8" Drive CDI Torque Wrench for $37.50
6 pc USA file set - $33.00
Because July 4th falls on a Wednesday I'll be continuing the sale through the weekend, but it pays to be early if you want a shirt or if you want to qualify for the Wright ratchet. I've made some of the deals available today as I had to create listings for you guys to see them. That's it for right now. More to come, but just wanted to give a quick update and let you know some of the stuff that will be available.

I'm getting a wrightgrip set
Id definitely be picking up the Norseman Step Bit set for that price if I didn’t already have a set. I’ve been using them at work as an electrician for about two years now and they have held up much better than similar step drills from Klein, Milwaukee, Irwin....etc

I have my eye on some SK stuff and the punch chisel set. Maybe some Wrightgrip wrenches. And the wife gets to go to the mall

Whats the difference from ordering now vs on the 4th?

It's about supporting USA tool makers and a small brick and mortar store that provides quality tools at a fair price and great customer service.

Nothing, only difference is the discounts on certain items and some swag (usually a T-shirt) if you buy certain amount. As said before just a way to show support for American tool manufactures and independently owned buisness

I think the wright discounts are that day. A few posts up hje posted details . some discounts took effect already due to the way things turned out. I think the guy above me miss understood your question.

I had never heard of this before, but it sounds like the perfect opportunity to fill in a few missing sockets and get a few things off my wish lists.
If I drop items into a shopping cart now, and they end up being on sale during the event will the prices automaticly update or will I need to remove and add them back?
Also sounds like a great reason to stop in KC sometime!

I've been going to Epstein's since before I could walk... remembering from about 5 years old when Mr Epstein gave me a "Space" themed flashlight to play with in the store while my dad bought tools, My first tools were Wright Socket set from Epstein's Been going there FOREVER!

Whenever work takes me to Kansas City, I try to visit HJE. I'm like a kid in a candy store on allowance day. Good folks

Got my cart ready! Where is the area for box art request? I thought I had filled mine out last year and missed out. I didn’t have any big items needs this year, but I grabbed a couple gifts for my brothers (And Myself
). I’m glad we do this every year.

What's the amount to get a free shirt?

No announcement yet on SK participation, nor t-shirt design/qualifications as far as I have seen.
I wish the shirt was based on dollars spent with HJE, rather than on a specific tool vender. I may spend $250, but I have no ability to spend that with one company. I got 50k in tools, only need so many socket sets.

Just a quick update for you guys. SK is going to offer up some deals and there will be an Epstein's Day t-shirt with the saw blade logo. Just finalizing some things and will have the full update for you later today. Thanks for your patience.
