Sears Black Friday ad

[bash_brannigan]

I just noticed that the Sears Black Friday advert is online - usual places (www.bfads.net etc.). Had a quick look but didn't see anything that hasn't been on sale for similar prices recently. 64 pages long, so maybe I missed something good? Great selection of Mach tools on sale...

Sad. Sears isn't America's tool headquarters anymore. I have pretty much avoided Sears for Black Friday the last couple years, because all the Black Friday stuff is made in China with prices not even as good as you can get throughout the year.

Looks like they are going to have $99 Gladiator cabinets again, if anyone still needs them.

This set is going to be on sale for $49.99, which is the same price that the Gearwrench 20pc is always on sale for. Looks like it might be a straight-up re-badge. Anyone wanting those basic Gearwrenches should probably get the Craftsman set for an easier warranty.

Sadly, I don't see anything in the ad I need.

The background they have is too annoying to look thru the whole thing. I only made it to page 2

 

[upgrading]

Tools start on page 8.
The 17 piece screwdriver set for $14.99 looks decent.

 

[W_KY]

Is that the heavier duty/welded Gladiator 30" wall cabinet on page 9? I missed the last sale and I have a new garage in the works that they would look really nice in.

 

[upgrading]

Tools on pages 59 - 63 also.

I'm in for the 42 piece master bit set.

Yeah no s*it... It's hard to see what any of the pictures are because the bfads text in the background is so strong...

just buy the bit set now. it's 30 $

 

[Chris67]

Does that tap set usually get that low? Debating on picking one up for home but I can't stand dealing with all the people on Black Friday.

You are correct!

Anyone have any experience with the 1/2" pneumatic Craftsman impact on sale for $24?

Good price for a spare set.

 

[rednotch]

wow most of those tool deals can be had right now online lol, thought they would do better with the add.

 

[panknuckshovel]

The five piece Gearwrench flex ratcheting wrenches for $19.99 is only $9.99 at Ace

You, me and 90% of this board arent who this ad is for.

 

[ipp]

seems like solid deals on appliances tho...

shall this be the end for sears anyway?

I got one last year in a kit, it's OK, florida pneumatic sourced.

COO? I know better than to hope for USA but realistically hoping for Taiwan. I could care less about the ratchet but this has some sizes that could fill in my set.

 

[AceofSpad3s]

For black friday right or right now? I might get those.

 

[AceofSpad3s]

I'd bet on china for that one. I have only really used bit sockets for a table once. If home depot has a husky set on black Friday for cheaper I think I might get that one.

Has been China for some time now. The older USA stock is long gone at most stores by now.

If you want USA, the set linked below is basically the same set less the ratchet and extension. I bought this one while it was on sale and am happy with it.

[southalabama]

Sears gonna have trouble restocking after Christmas.

Better buy while you can. Don't expect a warranty.

 

[AceofSpad3s]

Yeah, this ad is pretty weak sauce, I like that mach t handle but I do not really got a use for it. Plus I have been just been on a roll with yardsales, this weekend I got a kennedy box, snap on t handle breaker bar from the 30's, 1/4 socket spinner, old klein wire strippers and a bunch of random plumbing tools that I probably won't use. Bunch of stuff I needed for $13.

Tools start on page 8.

It's been that price every BF for the past 5 years and several other days in between - normal sale price is around $19 IRRC. Same with the little red DMM for $10. Probably cheaper for me to replace one of mine then find fuses for it.

and the ratcheting wrenches - we can only hope they are decent (gearwrench) and not lobster claw a-ad code stuff... minding the fact they are not reversibles.

If you want a warranty buy elsewhere - fully expect sears in Chapt 7 by spring.

 

[Manny2_0]

I only saw one thing that was ok
the 6ft gladiator work bench for $250

I guess you can toss in the the 30in cabinets $99

Have you guys seen the work bench for that price


Thanks

Yes but only 1 other time during the year..... Now would be the time to grab it if interested.

 

[monomach]

The five piece Gearwrench flex ratcheting wrenches for $19.99 is only $9.99 at Ace

The ones in the Ace ad aren't flexes.

 

[cajunfirehawk]

At the rate sears is going I think black friday will have a different meaning for them one friday soon...sad.

 

[panknuckshovel]

The ones in the Ace ad aren't flexes.

Yep, my mistake. Thats what i get for using a search instead of looking at the actual ad.

 

[ravenzfusion]

The 42 piece bit set is chinese unfortunately, but i bought one anyhow since price was right. It doesn't seem too bad

 

[bb1970]

Sad. Sears isn't America's tool headquarters anymore.

Remember this the next time you go to Harbor Freight!

I think so, could be wrong. We've beat on them for a few years of diy work and no problems
