There are only a few stores that I can spend hours in. There are certain stores I don't like to bring my wife with me also. Harbor Freight Tools is that place. I get the flyers in the mail and start my wish list. It's like when a a kid gets the Toys R Us catalog.
One has to approach Harbor Freight Tools a little different. Are you a professional contractor that has multiple jobs weekly? Well then this place probably isn't for you. You might want to spend a few bucks more to get some better power tools. Are you the weekend warrior or the DYI home owner? Then, this is your place. They have a lot of great tools that won't be used all the time, but will get the job done. These tools won't break you wallet either. I have purchased some specialty tools here that I needed for certain jobs and they were great. I have also purchased a cordless power drill that was a piece of garbage and waste of money.
The trick is to go see the quality of the tool and then see how often you will use it. If you only need it a few times and it's pretty cheap, then get it! Overall this place is awesome. I love going here and finding some great deals. You have to come check this place out. Cheers!
