It's nice to buy tools on sale and I have also got some great deals at
garage sales and contractor going out of business sales. Check Craigslist
periodically. One thing I have realized over the years is to not buy too
many tools until you actually need them. When I was much younger I would
buy tools just in case I might need them or because they were a on sale. I
can't tell you how many socket sets and wrenches I own that I have actually
never used, but it is a lot. You should also think about tool storage and
tool security. Tools disappear quickly when they are out in the open.
