I'm stimulating the economy! Well actually, I received quite a few Sears gift cards for my birthday a while back, and finally was able to use them.
Craftsman Full Polish 28pc wrench set
Cable hose clamp pliers
1/2"dr. 6pt chrome socket sets
Utility knife set
I really like the full polish wrenches - Danaher does a great job on the fit/finish and Sears prices these things just right for the average guy. This is one toolset that Sears can't be faulted on.
The 6pt sockets are for my "road box". It's hard to find quality 6pt chrome sockets at a reasonable price, so I'll give these a try. Although I don't have many Craftsman 1/2" dr. sockets (bought mostly MAC all my life), they look fantastic -- the price was absolutley fantastic.
You guys are responsible for me lusting after the hose clamp pliers -- after reading all the comments, I had to give 'em a try.

Thinking the same thing. Now for home use I'm forced to either scrounge dirt marts for used over priced or buy foreign made that just ain't the same quality.
