🧰 Let's talk poverty tool boxes/tool chests

[CMNTMXR57]

I think that black one above with the angled top (also comes in Blue, a gold color, red, and black), is $899.99 I believe.

I expect there to be some real nice craftsman sales at xmas this year..... Sears usually delivers but I feel like this year could be a cut above

Lane, why can't you dole out the Sears discount? I mean shits hitting the fan there anyway....?

Because they took it away from us too. It was a big hoopla several months ago.

Now, instead of my 10% discount up front, I now get 10% back in SYW points on hardline products (tools, appliances, etc), and 15% back in SYW points on softline products (clothes, shoes, etc), which then expire in 90 days.

So not only did I lose my impetus to purchase in the first place (the initial discount), I now lose on the back end too, because I only shop Sears once in a blue moon when I need something, so my points would expire...

Fucked up...

BONED, hard...

Thats so dumb.

soft close craftsman for $399... on sale from 645....

or this might just be a craftsman "it's always on sale, sale"

Tell me about it. On our internal message board, I (and many others) went postal. Eddie actually responded to me... I stirred the hornets nest!

I got told that I need to change my shopping habits and that all the wonderful things I can do if I download all these SYW apps on to my "mobile device".

yea, fuck that! I am not changing my shopping habits, and I don't want an "app" on my phone because I don't use my phone to begin with... I just want to be left alone.

I have the 42 from sears as well, I got it on sale last year during the holidays.

Love the box except for the soft close drawers, they can be a real pain to open sometimes. I would rather have the latch/roller bearing drawers like my old 26 craftsman.

I do love the top opening with power and usb though, it's tots!

It’s good quality and was around $200 cheaper than the dewalt version of this. Plus you can get it in black which was nice as it matches my 26 box

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

Plus I got it for free as a Bday gift

That is a tool bench, no wheels.

Correct, made from these, that do roll: https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-...ossy-red-industrial-roller-cabinet-69387.html

Here is a similar one to the black one posted above ( I don't think it has the USB ports);

HF 44" 13-drawer coup for $350: Harbor Freight Tools Coupon Database - Free coupons, 25 percent off coupons, toolbox coupons - 44", 13 DRAWER INDUSTRIAL QUALITY ROLLER CABINET



I typically just write down the coupon code & tell it to the person at checkout.

This is mine but I'm not sure it's a 41 thought. This is the price I paid for mine and has the right drawer configuration and the power/usb in the top box.

[CMNTMXR57]

I think this is the one Cap has.. $600.

So what's the "poverty" threshold?
I need one, not trying to spend more than 300...

 

[Chester Copperpot]

Of course, looking for a topper to my 44" chest to expand the storage, HF is the only company who makes a 44" chest topper. Husky/Milwaukee/everyone else is either 40" or 46".

42" tall Home Depot with the hutch checking in. The big drawer with my sockets I can wiggle it a little but it's never failed and the bearings are still easy rolling. 9/10 would buy and recommend again especially for $500

 

[EmersonHart13]

Powered hutch topper thing FTW.

 

[CMNTMXR57]

Oh, and FWIW, Waterloo Industries makes the Craftsman boxes. Waterloo also sells their own versions.

So there is another option if you can find them.
