Default Good deal on Gearwrenches at...

NAPA is having a great sale on Flex End Gearwrenches through June 30.

It's a 7-piece set (10,12,13,14,15,17,19MM) with carrier for $34. Normally ~$100.

I just bought a set, even though I don't really need them. It was too good to pass up.

I don't need it either, so I only bought one set! Thanks for the heads up.

I have a set of Craftsman, but you have to move the wrench a long ways to get it to ratchet - not very practical. Going by NAPA today!

It looks like a 18 mm can't be hard to find.

I couldn't agree more. I put off buying a set for the longest time because I'm so cheap. I finally picked up a set of Stanley's from Ace Hardware for about $40 and I've been kicking myself for waiting so long. Truly a must have tool.

I don't know if it's an internet special. They have them in the store.

I bought some at Home depot because I got a free amex award card from work. Usually they aren't helpful, but sometimes they can get you out of a pinch!
