You get what you pay for, as always.

I've got a caliper similar to the one shown in the first picture that was cheap. It's not the greatest, but it works well enough for what I need.

I have no need for an infrared thermometer, but I'm temped by one none the less :)

I've got some excellent (cheap) Aldi ratchet ring spanners. You certainly get more than what you pay for  :)

Ant they usually come with 3 year guarantee. Or is that Aldi - or both.
