It's the oldest marketing trick; before a sale, prices are raised a bit. DURING the sale, are lowered a bit COMPARED to the price BEFORE raising it. BUT compared to the raised price, it's a SUPER deal! lol

yes you are correct about a$$ holes jacking up prices before a sale and hope we'r stupid.

I camel camel camel there not real acrette
https://camelcamelcamel.com/Stanley-...context=search

last years lowest price was $43.99 this year lowest price was $46.

I'll wait them out. may even get the 90 piece set

I've usually always invest in Craftsman mainly for the easy warranty replacement now that Sears has skipped town (left me w/ $45. of store credit). I try Stanley hope it,s not cheaply made chinese crape.

edit:hope the black paint stays on tools rather than my hands.

Craftsman is now sold in other stores. You might keep an eye out for that.

yes I realize other online stores sell Craftsman but where to take back not interested in mailing off broken stuff for warranty. plus I think the Sears co. is on there last leg.

Online, yeah, but also on-the-street stores. In Calif. we have a store called Orchard Supply and Hardware that sells Craftsman. There might be something similar in the SE where you are.
