Lotta--uh, yeah--stuff there. Some of it looked half decent, some
didn't. snip

Yeah, there's a lot of that. Let us know what you think, when you
go back and look a bit closer.

They've got a lot of stuff, that's pretty inexpensive, and works
well enough. I've gotten several of the 3-piece "vice-grip" sets. I
have no idea what their useful life would be; they work fine, but with
two sons, they tend to have disappeared by the time I need one; so buy
another set. At about $6-7 for the set, on sale, can't beat the price.
Costs a lot more than that, for just one, in the local hardware store.

Way I figure, some of the stuff I buy there, I may not use more
than 3-4 times total (or never, see vice-gips, above). So, if it's got
a useful life of 6 uses, I figure I'm money ahead buying one, rather
then spending money on something capable of standing up to daily use.
