    Default Do you buy tools you dont need ??

    Is anybody like me, the wife is always telling me off but i cant stop buying tools if i see them cheap, they always do come in but might take a few years, lastest one was a 20" masonary bit i bought about 5 years ago for £1 at Homebase but i eventually used it today to drill though the house wall

    I did that years ago, priced up all the stuff in my snap-on toolbox at work that I'd built up over the years. To replace it all would have been £3000 - £4000

    Not cheap when you start including snap-on 3/4 drive sockets & ratchets
