If you're not a contractor, power tools. Buy the harbor freight version first when you need it. If you end up using it enough to break it, then you get a quality one.

I have never broken a 10 mm wrench, but I have lost a few. So I bought a ten pack on Amazon.

It's always the 10!

I keep one in my center console, my keychain, and random cheapies mixed in around loose tools, on top of whatever is part of the sets. Periodically we'll still have a hard time finding one when its needed and have to replenish.

Are they hanging out with the lost socks?
