I have this $25 Sears gift card that's been taking up space in my wallet for over a year now, and I think I'm going to try and go spend it this week. Can anyone think of a useful tool to have around that's in that price range? I've already got a good socket set, screwdrivers, drill, dremel, and a half-assed wrench collection. Garden tool recommendations also welcome, especially if they have automotive applications.

U joint sockets are alwyas handy, but you'll only be able to buy 1 or 2 favorite sizes at that price, locking extensions are handy and about the right price, ratcheting pivoting end wrenches are great but gunna gost 3 times yur limit, BFH

Expand your wrench collection, or buy whatever sockets that your car has bolt sizes in but you don't have.

Various C-clamps...or a Craftsman Phillips/Straight Flip-over screwdriver. I'll get part# when I go out to shop today.

How about a multi meter? Good for chasing down those electrical gremlins.may be a bit more that 25.00 I think I paid 30.00 at Home Depot.
