A few posts back the subject of rags came up..
DID YOU KNOW, Good Will sells "rags" by the pound??
My company used to buy the snot outta them.. a HUGE "contractors bag" FULL, cost about $5.00!!
They're just shirts that don't sell..
I opened a bag to get some rags for an oil spill & found 5 BRAND NEW POLO shirts still in the package from Belks.. You know the ones.. w/the little horse on it..{Ralph Loren, I think}
It got to the point that the mechanics were going thru the bags for clothes.!! LOL..
They are GREAT for big oil spills & such..

I've been thinking about the 44" 13 Drawer Glossy Red Industrial Roller Cabinet for a while. Swung by today with the intent of purchasing it, and / or the companion 44" 8 Drawer Glossy Red Roller Cabinet Top Chest.

They were so large that I wound up purchasing the 26" 16 Drawer Glossy Red Roller Cabinet Combo instead for $299.99 with a coupon.

Was in the local HF yesterday and saw that the 26" cabinet now comes in royal blue as well as red and black. I'll be curious to see if the blue takes off. My guess is that the "Snap-on"/"Matco" red will far outsell it. :)

The 56" Roller Cabinet Top Chest has been discontinued.

Rumor is there will be a new 56" released soon in multiple colors.

I'm not sure which tool chest it was but I got an email yesterday showing the tool case in three different colors. It's deleted now so maybe someone else got it too.

The March HF catalog has a $20 off coupon for Lynx tools, in the Lynx section.

The HF I visit has completely rearranged the store to include the new lines of hand tools, power tools, welding supplies, etc. It is much more organized now. Many of the simple, cheap, hand tools are gone. They are replaced by their new lines of 'better' and 'best' quality tools, and these new lines are impressive. Nice quality, but they are at a price similar to the old brand name tools that used to be American made. I noticed their top line of tools is made in Taiwan, and the lower line in China. They appear to be targeting the tradesmen now more than ever with better tools and guarantees.

The one I visited yesterday had a special 8-person crew and all the aisles full of large boxes. They were putting new stuff out everywhere.

Has anyone recently bought the Lynxx 40V Max batteries and tools?

I'm wondering if HF is maintaining the quality. Originally it seemed most of the stuff - polesaw, chainsaw, blower - got good reviews. But firms have been known to lower quality control on some things after they've made a good name for themselves.

I'm always skittish about buying HF tools that use electricity. They never seem to be packaged with enough smoke.
