Harbor Freight 25% sale this weekend

[CreepyCrepe]

Their ICON tools in my humble estimation are the best thing HF sells. They are fantastic. I've bought lots of stuff from HF over the years. Some of it has been ok. A few things have been total trash. ICON stuff is top shelf.

I've been turning to HF for toolbox organization. Pretty sure the only way I could go cheaper on it would be to 3d print stuff at work.

Got the ICON flex head torque wrench.

Been using the cheap Pittsburgh version for a year and decided to upgrade.

I have a Tekton for my 1/2" that I like pretty well, but I was looking at the 5-75lb/ft 3/8" torque wrench they just released. If they had the wrench pliers in stock at my store I would've scooped them up with the 25% coupon.

Any tool kit recommendations from HF? Thought it would be a good opportunity to buy a cheap trail tool kit.

Virtually all listed tool sets will be the Pittsburgh brand. Think of them as occupying the legacy price point/legacy quality tier. In other words, cheap, and all that it brings with it.

Consider building your trail kit a la carte via the Quinn or especially the Icon brands. With respect, shopping by price is the last thing you'll think of or want to worry about when having to self-rescue when off road.

If you're thinking of implementing solar, their 100-watt panel is a great buy at 25% off. Puts out 6 amps in full sun, more than enough to keep my fridge battery charged indefinitely. I've installed mine on a slide-out from under the rack. Also their Solar Charge Controller (less than $20 I think) works very well.

I Guess my thought was they’d only be used on a trail since I have tools at home. But maybe going too cheap is a bad idea in and of itself lol.

Got myself a hose reel with my coupon.

25% didn’t apply to the Badlands off road jack but I still got one. $299 not bad price regardless.

Any single item my ass

That's why I gave up on the Track club membership. Seemed like every time I bought something there was always an excuse not to give me a discount.

ITC members get deals all the time. And then when they have the 20% off sales members get 30% off.

Inside Track Club. Youll see on some price tags “ITC members pay …..”

It does seem that ITC-eligible discounts are less generous than what I was used to seeing just a couple of years ago. I originally purchased a membership to gain access to generously discounted US General tool storage cabinets. That was early 2020, IIRC.

A visit to my local HF last Friday revealed a variety of comparatively low-buck Inside Track discounts on a varied selection of low and medium-priced items. There wasn't anything approaching the savings that I saw (and availed myself of) in the past couple of years, before I let my ITC membership expire.

Now, the foregoing may be a consequence of continued supply chain issues, a shift in corporate policy on the matter, etc. All I know is that I still miss the print catalogs and the legacy 20% coupons that had fewer non-eligible items than today's less-frequently-issued coupons do.

I agree! Every time I walked in that store and made a purchase I not only got a discount on everything but they were telling me to choose a free gift that came with it. It's just not the same anymore, I talked to a manager about it and she said there has been some changes. Obviously! Don't get me wrong I still like and shop and harbor freight but the ITC isn't worth it to me anymore.
