Woah, $17? I really need to see if I can find one at that price.

Double post, but got one!

Actually, I think it was the same one that I almost bought a couple weeks ago, but it was still $48 then.

I wish I could find one on the cheap.

Its one of those things I need to try out for longer than just handling one in the store, and really get some real time to use. unfortunately one of mine still had em for $48 2 or 3 days ago.

I stopped by a Target near work yesterday, and they had one skeletool marked at ~$40.  I figured I'd take my chances and see if it dropped again before buying.

Stopped in again today, and it had dropped to $20.68.  I figured that was good!  They also had a Vic Spartan/keyfob set marked down to $5.98, so I got that too.

So my total haul from Target's clearance the last week is:

1) Leatherman Blast, originally $50.99.  Paid $25.48 +tax.
2) Leatherman Skeletool, originally $68.99.  Paid $20.68 +tax.
3) Vic Spartan/keyfob set, originally $19.99.  Paid $5.98 +tax.

Total with tax for all: $55.65.  Not bad, if you ask me!

Thanks for the heads up on this Fragunov and MTO!  :tu:

Those are among the best deals I have ever heard of. Each store is different though. My target never went below 48

Yeah, I'm surprised they went this low.

Not that I'm complaining!  ;)

Wow, guess i better check back. And I thought $20.68 was good. Maybe they'll put them in the $1.00 deals near the register;)

Was back at Target today, not the same one I got my Blast at for $25.48. This Target had 1 Blast left on clearance for.....(surely this was going to be a good find/price as it is a week later)....

$35.68!!

It's still on the shelf if anyone wants it.

I was hoping for a $17 Skeletool, but I fear they are long gone.
