Hey Canadians!

[eschoendorff]

Anyone live near Windsor? I may be taking my wife over just to have lunch and hang out one of these weekends (probably in later May or early June). I have heard a lot about this Canadian Tire place - is there anything in particular that I should pick up (tool-wise) while I am in Canada? Any "must-haves?" Oh, and will tools go through customs? (it's been a while since I've been there...)

I wouldn't say they sell anything you can't get down in the US. But when stuff goes on sale, the prices are DAMN good. Like this set:

They're no worse than husky. Actually.. they're exactly the same as husky lol but cheaper! and come in nicer trays! and are laser-etched!

Or these:

Those wrenches ain't bad either. Taiwan, but the finish is nicer than some SK *cough*
