Harbor Freight Tools

I like shopping here for all of my DIY projects. This store has a variety of different items from the very top name brands to lesser known brands. You will always find something you can use, and they won't break the bank.

I'm not one to buy hand tools here, but the speciality tools are cheap and they offer 2 year warranty. I see all the time on the social media people comparing hand tools here to Snap On and Marco, with there just as good and they have a lifetime warranty. Ok, that is fine if you live near one and have time on your day off to go and take care of it. However I have yet to have a Harbor Freight store pull up in my shop parking lot once a week.

This is a chain AND every store has super nice employees that go out of their way to help you find what you need.
Good service is refreshing. Sometimes it is easy to get ignored in a big box store.
The prices are often slightly lower than bigger stores. I don't know enough to tell you about quality. Everything I bought there still works.
I usually buy things like furniture dollies when I move or small power tools & tools for small jobs.
Last time I bought an inclinometer to measure angles.
The guy knew what it was. Walked me right to it. He also showed me some alternatives and told me why they may or may not be a good choice.

Staff is better than most. Even if they don't know said piece of equipment use, they will track it down or locate in back. Fluid between aisle help and registers. These people need a bravo and company lunch/bonus/pay raise.
