If tools are too much for your wallet everywhere else, Harbor Frieght is the place for you. This place sells imported tools at cut-rate prices. Of course, you do get what you pay for, but some of it works. Of particular interest is the mini cut-off saw, the likes of which we haven't seen elsewhere at these prices.

Tool Crib just isn't the same since they were bought by the big A, but they are still the next best thing to Seven Corners Hardware/Tools on Sale. These two will beat each other's prices, but then what. If we put 'em out of business we'll pay more to someone else.
