One pair of the 20" Channelocks is worth what you paid for the whole bucket. Nice job!

They got down to buckets of scrap iron at 5.00 per bucket. My poor old car was really down in the rear. No more truck to haul tools home in. purchases.

I'm in the same boat. I just can't afford ANY truck right now. I work out of my old beat-up 2001 Malibu. Lucky for me I don't drive too far, usually, because I load 1500 pounds or more in the trunk at times. And I know the roof can hold up to 30 sheets of plywood if I avoid the big bumps in the road.

Everybody always laughs at my little car that thinks it's a truck.

So now what do I do when I find one of these tools at a yard sale or some thing. It will be real hard to leave a quality tool behind. But as you can see I now have plenty. Help, I am going to be so lost. You know that they will be all over the place now that I am no longer looking for them....Rich

When you say "big bucks", what are we talking? $200?, $500?, $1000?

I acquired a nice collection of CL from yard sales and pawn shops and have about 3-5 each of the common ones, fewer of the more hard to find ones so my "gotta have it" level is lower on the more common ones, meaning if it's not like new and really cheap, I just pass on them. Don't get me wrong, if I saw a pair of CL at a sale right now for $1, I'd buy them no matter the condition but my tastes are going away from the norm...
