A 12 inch Crescent brand crescent wrench. I did not realize until I got home that they are made in China now. Side by side comparison to other sizes of the same wrench made in USA did not reveal any actual flaws in either. The font and logo have changed so even though not marked "made in China", it is easy to identify the non USA made ones. Time will tell.
Also a small set (3mm-10mm) of Kobalt brand ball tip metric allen wrenches. Made in Taiwan. The 4mm performed well yesterday, the rest have yet to prove themselves.

Bought 1/4" and 3/8" Pittsburgh Pro composite ratchets from Harbor Freight (used 20% coupon, 2 trips through), received 2 Cen-Tech VOM's free. Couponed up via Slickdeals Harbor Freight coupon thread. The "smell" hit me 10' outside the door but those composite ratchets appear to be an excellent value.

A really nice older Craftsman set. (maybe 154 piece) I'm not sure how many piece but its 3/4, 3/8/, 1/4 and it has repeating 6pt, 12pt, deep and shallow sets, wrenches and allen bits. It's only missing 3 sockets... So at $11 I think I scored

Re: What did you buy this weekend?UPDATED
Was back in the same store where I I bought the 12 inch Crescent wrench that was (unnoticed by me) made in China. Right there on the wall was a 12 inch Crescent wrench marked "Made In USA" just like all my others. Of course I bought the USA Crescent and will be returning the Chicom one tomorrow.

I was rummaging thru the clearance bin at our local Home Depot. I found a NOS package of 3 USA made Vice grips. (The good kind not the ones made from global components.) It said on clearance for 20 and some change. I went to ring up and it came out to 10 dollars.
