I ordered that one today. The only reason I was reluctant before is the fact that returns and exchanges are quicker, but you can't beat delivered to the door.

Went to HF yesterday and got the set of metric ratcheting wrenches, seem to be pretty good quality though I haven't had them on a bolt yet. Also got one of those led rope lights and the 1/4 3/8 and 1/2 drill socket drives. All on digital coupons, and while they wouldn't scan, the counter guy just had me read off the numbers. The Salem store seems to be doing a good business.

They are good for the price but after a couple dozen uses the commonly used 1/2 ratchet is spotty.

The current email ad I get has their 5/16" X20' GR 70 truckers chain for $28 compared with a regular price of almost $50. That's a pretty good price.

I was in HF last night, and wandered down the tool chest and cart isle. I used to joke with my wife that HF is like a candy store to me. Apparently they were listening because that isle looks more like candy than ever. The 5 drawer tool carts now come in Blue, Black, Red, Orange, Yellow, and Green. Seeing that bright assortment of carts in a line brings a smile to your face. Unfortunately they still don't have the folding side trays in stock for any color other than the original Red.

I have been building a new barn after the hurricane all of this has been done with a Bauer drill and 1/2" impact. I'm impressed with how well they are holding up.

The SKU for the multi colored side trays has been released, they should be arriving at stores in the near future. All of the US General toolbox accessories (paper towel holder, rubber glove holder, side tray...) Will have all colors once the new SKU list hits the stores. I'd guess early in 2019.

Yep, should be soon. HF has listed the trays in catalogs for a couple of months, but they didn't have them in the stores nor were those item numbers available online. Until yesterday. The new item numbers are now listed on the HF website if you search, so I hope they will get inventory in soon.

They told me that there are over 1,000 new SKU members to be dropped to the stores during 2019. I'm sure that a lot are Bauer/Hercules/Chief related.
