garage sales... are the best,

thing is, i was looking around for a trolly jack for months, got sick of waiting and rocked down to superheap and picked up a jack and stands for $50 or something like that, used them that afternoon..... the VERY next day i picked up a trolly jack for $5 at a garage sale, works fine.... the funny thing was the garage sale was 2 houses down from my house...

...supercheap is good tho... esp for a tight arse like me..

Supercheap is good cause I am too.:thumb and garage sales and rellies and stuff. I also like Repco cause they will replace anything if if breaks-lifetime warranty.

i find sometimes its better to buy good stuff and never replace, than to replace something cheap 5 times ove the next 50 years!!

also for single spanners, try cash converters. they normally ahve some tubs full of them, for 50c each or similar.

one of the best purchase i made was a very good trolley jack with 850mm plus lift. cost heaps but is awesome. But i also have 2 super cheap jacks for at the track.
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!

if you want the best in tools then buy hazet(the new stuff)you can get it for about half of the price on ebay.de and in my opinion is better quality then anything on the market.try ebay germany and just type in hazet.just like Bix said better to buy quality than quantity!!

also just bought 2 car ramps from super cheap for 25 bucks each...normally $36...so if your on a budget just wait till auto bahn or super cheap have a 30 percent off everything sale or check out thier monthly cataloges for specials. by the way,the exact same car ramps that i just bought for $50 the pair(same colour,made in china)were being sold at a wreckers for $129 a pair(also new of course)??????
