Picked up the jack and two stands on the last day of the sale for $108
( incl. tax). Now I just have to clean out the Garage so I'll have a level place to work on. Good find boys, thanks for the heads up.

I always thought you were a jack, as s a matter of fact isn't your middle name jack........just wondering.

Good going man. Now you'll get your hands all greasy again and have some real fun......

Doesn't it feel good to save that much money?

Hydrolic floor jack & stands.........

Just noticed in this mornings newspaper that Sears has their racing jack on
sale for Fathers Day. I'd buy one but what would I do with two jacks? Do they have Sears stores in Canada..?

We sure do have Sears......What's the price for it down there.
Not sure if it's on sale at our Sears in Canada, but I expect it is....Has anyone seen that sale here???

Michelin Jack & stands at Cdn Tire - 1/2 price!

Anybody know if it's any good? In the flyer that came out today. Reg $185 jack so I'm thinking it might be reasonable quality...?

I saw it in the store and it looked pretty good to me. Haven't used it myself. Buying from there you know you can return it if you don't like it.

They also had wheeled stools on 1/2 price for 19.99 to save your back on detailing days!

Might have to get one of those, too, since I do plan a detailing day this weekend. AFTER I get all my 'honeydo' jobs done... One of which is to clean out the garage, so that is largely for me, anyway.

Good idea, Colin. For some reason I was thinking this was a 'no rain checks' item, but I just checked the flyer online and it didn't say that. I gotta go back today (if they are open) so I will check into it. (no pun intended)

These are a bargain!

I got one and now I use it all the time! Great for detailing the front end without bending over... great for working on tires and wheels... cleaning and conditioning seats and interior...
