Harbor Freight Tools that don't suck

I had the same experience last night. That 20% no restrictions coupon linked above, she said it wouldn't scan yet she would take off 20% anyway. I thought that was odd.

I bought their nighthawk LED lights and wiring harness to mount on my tractor roll bar. Very pleased and they are heavy construction.

Bought this $7 tool box to replace the tiny one provided on the Kubota B

By the time I hear/find out about their coupons, they're usually already expired. At this point in my life, if I need a tool I just go buy the darn thing. My toolbox and shop are pretty well stocked with tools now.

Not too worried about saving a bit of $ on it.

When they still had paper coupons I'd use the ones for freebies or 20% off, but the digital ones are more trouble than they're worth. Supposedly, the ID# on the coupons is unique for everyone on their e-list and you can just copy down that # for the cashier to enter manually, but I've never actually tried it.

Agree that I have 'most every tool I'm likely to need but still you can't have too many!
