Why the TD when the same deal in June was FP?

I'm actually needing the 3/8 & 1/4 sizes (1/4 not on sale), what else do people recommend instead?

Everyone teamed up and downvoted all my deals I posted today, claiming "spam" even though I have been posting HDs holiday tool deals for a year or two now and have no history of spamming. I've been a member here since 2011 with 800+ FP deals. In reality, they most likely got angry that I posted them all within a half hour window or so and they kept getting deal alerts. So now, some people may miss out on some deals because none of the deals I posted will get exposure due to all the thumbs down.

In a few days, SD staff will post these same deals and they'll get plenty of exposure then.

Some people got really petty yesterday and voted a bunch of the OPs deals down, not based on the merits of the deals, but because they didn't like how they were being posted.

I personally appreciate any and all deals being posted and, since I'm an adult, have the ability to ignore deals that don't interest me without getting upset about it. Deal votes should be based on whether the deal is good or not, not because someone disagrees with the way in which they're posted.

Tekton ones usually go down to $38 every few days in Amazon. They're a good brand.

Thanks all, TU & repped. Bought the 3/8ths husky one yesterday. For 1/4 Tekton on amazon, looks like there are two 1/4 options, up to 200 vs 150 inlb.

I'd prefer the 150 for double duty on bike maintenance since bidirectional, but there's currently one car measurement outside range between that and the husky 3/8 at 16 ftlb/192 inlb (power steering pump). Granted this is probably an auto forum question, but anyone who knows this stuff think I'm good enough to guesstimate or just go to the bottom of 3/8's at 240 inlb?

EDIT: Nevermind, a family member with a past life bike racing told me I don't need a dual direction wrench. Cheaper 200 inlb Tekton it is. Thanks!
