Tools!
Getting tired of my Craftsman breaking, can't afford to replace them with anything big name like Snap-On. I've tried Husky, Craftsman, Kobalt.. Gonna give the local TSC a try with Masterhand, they have all the basic tools plus the non-normal ones as well. Tonight I went all over town looking for a 1-1/16 socket, finally found it at TSC. Just noticed some of there tools advertise lifetime warranty as well!
What is your favorite brand of tools?

Craftsman and Husky....since like Kevin said, you can go to Sears or Kmart to swap a Craftsman tool or The Home Depot to swap a Husky tool...

Cuda, I have broken 3 of the 3/8 ratchets in the past year. My problem is my closest Sears with tools is an hour away.
Did not know Home Depot would replace broken Husky's. Gonna have to take a trip this afternoon.
I am going to buy a few Masterhand at the end of the month and see how they feel.

I like the craftsman tools, but I also like Kobalt tools. They have a lifetime warranty on them also. You can find them in any Lowe's.

Yup! It depends on the Kmart and what type of tool section they have. The one I used to work at had a huge tool section
