I'm bummed the two bit set that goes up to 1/2" goes on sale this weekend for $9.99, but no deal on anything that goes up to 3/4".

Harbor freight stuff is great. My cordless impact wrench has got to be up over 100+ wheel changes. Most used power tool I own.

Harbor Freight is almost as much fun as going to Frys. In addition to the Flowbee, and bamboo steamer , I got a set of 32 "security" 1/4" hex drive bits. So if anyone ever needs to undo one of those pesky torx screws with the pin in the middle, let me know. There are some funky bits in there. 3 point Phillips, things that look like shovels with the center cut out, etc.

I also got some pretty anodized and nylon sheathed for your protection lug nut sockets for my new forged aluminum lug nuts, and my already abused wheels, and 6 pair of leather work gloves for $8. the later are great for manhandling tires and such. I think the last 6 pair have lasted me 8 or so years, whereas the two pair of genuine Mechanix gloves I bought lasted about 8-12 months total, and they were much more than $8.
