For the 2nd or 3rd year in a row, I've seen nothing worthwhile in tools. Anyone find anything worth purchasing?

Bosch Flexiclick for $120. The majority of the decent tool deals I saw were on Bosch. I have been waiting to get a Flexiclick for under $150 since they came to the US but they stayed around $170. There were some decent Wera prices but they are still cheaper on German Amazon so the Flexiclick was it for me.
That was the best deal Id seen IMO. Unfortunately I already had one. Think I paid $154 for mine though.Quote:

Agreed - the Bosch and the Wera micro set were most intriguing, and the Wera only for the same reason Greg mentioned. I got a cheap socket set for that I was going to get soon anyways so a few dollars off.
Otherwise nothing to write home about. Ebay’s 25 off 119 actually more intriguing.
eBay has had some great deals in the last 6 weeks, 20% off, 15% off and this 25 off 119.Quote:

For sure. It looks like they're gradually replacing the Ebay bucks promos with the coupons. At least it seems that way to me. These last two July promos are in direct competition to Prime Day. Usually Ebay is quieter with the discounts during the first month of the quarter.Quote:

I needed batteries for other tools so this was like a free leaf blower! The blower is what surprised me the most, super powerful and makes blowing off driveway and patio super easy!
I scored some am/fm, mp3 hearing protection. Normally 60.00 for 39.99. Not a bad deal :)
There were no prime deals to score. The sales at the borgs and the typical WW sellers were better.
Depends on what you wanted, the Flexiclick was the cheapest I have seen it anywhere since it was introduced here about 9-10 months ago. There were deals, and many of the best ones didn't last long. I agree Prime Day has been overall a disappointment (tool wise) since it began and it does take some effort to separate the wheat from the chaff.Quote:

I got two sets of 1/2” Irwin pipe clamps. The ones that don’t need threaded pipe. For$8.99 each set. I have two 36” pipes lying around so the way I saw it, I’ll end up with two more 36” clamps for 18$. Not too bad
