buy a portable drill. What should I look for? Volts, Amps or what?
Sears has one going on sale for $70. The ad says it has 14.4 volts.
It doesn't mention amp. I want one that I'll be satisfied with.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Or if you want to try one and see how it works, Harbor Freight has an
18 volt one for $20. Extra battery for $10.

I have a store about a mile away so often look at their stuff.

There is one near me as well. Never bought anything there. I'm sure
you've picked up winners and losers. How about naming a few of each?

I get the feeling HF purchases end up being either you got what you paid
for or plain old lucky.
