My Mother had a bad experience with Sears and their card, and now also swears them off. Me personally? I go to Sears about once every other month. Mostly for tools. I prefer Snap-on, but can't always afford them. Comparing Craftsman to Snap-on? Give me a break. They are as different as night and day. Old Guy and Marty are right on the money: Craftsman quality sucks compared with 15-20 years ago, and the open end wrenches stretch if the bolt offers much resistance. The sockets crack easily, too. But, I enjoy the ease of replacing them. When I'm rich, I will only own Snap-on tools. Until then, I also have Craftsman.
Take care,
-Chris
