Tool bag deal [free bag]

Advance has a free tool bag w/ a 5 Autocraft tool purchase. Bag is normally $19.99, decent zip up wire mouth w/ side pockets. I got five different magnetic tipped screw drivers and the bag for $22 out the door. Drivers are the least expensive Autocraft tools starting @ $3.99. They have pliers and other tools as well, which you need in the bag anyway.

I've been looking at bags and they start @ $13.99 for new surplus cavas bags w/o side pockets. Figure that price; and I got five drivers for around $1.50 each.

Can't beat that and they're decent tools to boot.

Good deal if you need a bag and a few extra tools.

Offer ends March 31.

Autozone has Duralast tools. Same price as Advance's Autocraft, but as long as you keep the receipt, they are guaranteed for life, which is more than Sears' Craftsman does now-a-days. The only other tools out there that are replaced-when-broken free-of-charge are Snap-on, and their prices are too high for my budget. Plus, tools are gonna break. I've even broken a Snap-on Impact socket on the crank of a Honda Prelude. Took longer to get a replacement through them than it would have to just run over to Autozone and swap out the Duralast.

Thanks for the heads up on the cheap prices though! I'll keep that in mind the next time my wife needs more round-the-house tools (she has her own tool bag of all pink tools)
