Their "buy sockets by the pound" section in the back is where you want to go. Cheap stuff, but who cares. The back part of the store is full of discontinued and used, tools and gadgets. Every guy should go there at least once in their lifetime, LOL.
Edit: I was just thinking.......... are you having difficulty finding 1/8 inch socket for lets say, 3/8 or 1/2 inch ratchet? If so, I believe the 1/8 is only made for 1/4 inch ratchets. You need an adapter, unless you want to buy a whole set, which is what I would recommend.

For the price range around $500-$800, where are my options for fabric sofa beside Ikea in Vancouver? Any suggestion? Do not want something that's absolutely junk.
Thanks

I'm looking for some swimming gear, like cap/goggles/earplugs/noseplugs locally.
Are there any swimming-specific shops in Vancouver that sell these? I want to look at a good selection, quality and also good value ones.
The Swim Co. shop in the mall is for swimming suits and overpriced accessories isn't it?
Or am I suppose to just go to Sportcheck?.. do they have everything?
