All individual wrenches and sockets 50% OFF at Sears!!
It was weird ... I was standing there for 20 minutes and don't know what the hell to buy...
Just wondering if a few flex sockets and crow foot wrenches are worth it ...
Do any of you ever run into tight space that require a flex socket or crow foot?
And what hex bit sizes are necessary?

50% off, thats a damn good deal, maby i'll get some ratcheting box wrench's (always wanted a set but there like $80)
personally i like snap on but they are also expensive, althoughi just stripped the gears in my $220 snap-on torque wrench. but i get a new one for free
also you can laugh all you want, but HUSKY (home depot brand) is also some of the best stuff out there. have the same wartanty as craftsman and are about half the price, and ive never had a ratchet break, extension snap, or socket split. which is more than i can say for craftsman. but thanks for the tip, i'll stop up before work today.

Hmm, I should stop. I just bought all the stuff I needed for my nissan (universal joint and a 14mm/flex socket for the turbo manifold) but there are a few things I like to pick up.
Nick, I actually bought a set of those ratching wrenches from Sears for like $25 but after I got home and went to use them I realized they didn't give me a 12mm in the set. There was 10 and 11mm on one and 13 and 14mm on the other. They just skipped 12. I was pissed and returned them.

I'm in North Chicago.
At first I thought it was a local thing, since there was only a small sign in the socket section. But then I came home and checked the Seasr website and it says the same thing. Not sure if it's just a local sale.
