22K Gold Wrench Set

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Craftsman Pimps Mechanics

— November 23, 2007 — Unique
Who said that all that is gold is reserved for rich socialites? Now even a simple mechanic can craft his trade in bling with this Craftsman 4pc full polished reversible ratcheting wrench set in 22k gold. Okay, it's plated...nevertheless, I'd like to see a mechanic's face when he pulls this out of his gift box on Christmas day!

Implications - Living a life of luxury may be the dream of most people in the world, but only few actually get to truly live the high life.

Consumers would definitely appreciate companies trying to boost their morale.
