Wooden tool boxes at Lowes

[Crotalus 0]

Hey guys, i wanted to let everyone know that my wife called from work (Lowes) to let me know that thier wooden tool chests came in today. I think she said they are only $29 this year but dont hold me to that. I already have one but told her to get me another. She doesnt know if all the Lowes will have them or what the prices will be at other stores so you should probably call you local store.

 

My only real gripe about this box is that the upper drawers are just a bit too short to stand thread spools up and still close the drawer.

 

 

For anyone who doesnt remember the past discussions about these boxes see the pics below.

 

I will probably replace the set of plastic drawers on the left with the new box

Hi Joe,

 

Thanks for the "heads up." I'll be there on Friday for the after Thanksgiving sale and will check the boxes out. Take care & ...

Well she just called back with an update, the $29 price is for Friday only, regular price is $50ish

Hopefully I won't get robbed while waiting in line to get it(I live in CT....LOL).

Thanks for the heads up....that's a super price.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Hot Tuna

Thanks for the shove in that direction, looks like a couple of those could find a place on my tying desk. I use a couple of those plastic drawer cabinets, too, and have been looking for something with a little more grace.

Plus I can use that little mirror in the top to help get the part straight in my rugged looking wind-blown hair.

I might just have to stop by and see if they have them here myself :whistle:

I said it before and I will say it again, these boxes are great. I picked one up last year, but if they are only 25.00 on Friday I might have to stop by at Lowes to get another one for myself.

I have to work on Friday, but I might be taking a long lunch break to pick me up a couple. Thanks for the tip!

Are those boxes already assembled or do you have to do the assembly?

 

Thanks,

The only thing I had to do to my box is to put felt on the bottom screws of the box because they would scratch up my desk. Other than that it is ready to go out of the box. This is a killer deal on the box, it beats paying a few hundred dollars for a Gerstner (sp?) box.

Yeah, I can afford the Lowe's box a little more easily than this one:

Does anyone have an idea of the general area in Lowe's where these boxes are on display?

I ended up buying 2 more, almost got 3 but i really only need 1.
