Canadian Tire Tools: 9-pc Wobble extn bar set

Looking for decent & budget-friendly tools, anyone had these before?
This looks too good to be true at that price. Since this is Mastercraft, I'm assuming that the lifetime warranty would apply?

Cheers,

Welcome to Canada. You will learn Canadian Tire is a great source for your everyday and tool needs but be aware their prices are normally marked up significantly and these are in fact the actual value at this price. They will work as intended and the chances of these failing is slim to none.

I have this set - bought when $9.99. Works well but I only use them occasionally. Was useful when extra flexibility/length was needed to change a difficult to access oxygen sensor.

I bought this for $9.99 a while back as well. It came in handy when I need to put my 1/2 breaker bar on my motorcycles drain plug to get more leverage.

Don't forget to goo your attic!

This is pretty much "regular price" for CT. The 44.99 "regular price" is just a joke.

My go-to extensions set are these, also frequently on sale for 9.99 which includes a U-joint socket. I find this much more useful than messing with wobbles 95% of the time. Wobbles are nice-to-have.

Right?! I noticed that too when looking at the original price. I've never seen an extension bar set priced for $44.99 reg, which is insane. How do they decide on these prices?

While we're at it, try Princess Auto as well. They have great bi-weekly flyer sale prices on stuff and their return policy is second to none. FYI, their comparable wobble extensions have quite a bit more range than the Mastercraft version.
