The Basics
What is this?
A free price tracker for Harbor Freight. We check every tool's price each day, keep every coupon we see, and show you the history so you can tell a real deal from a normal price.
Is this Harbor Freight?
No. It's an independent site and isn't affiliated with or endorsed by Harbor Freight Tools. Harbor Freight's name is only used to say which store's prices we track.
Does it cost anything?
No. Browsing, email and push alerts, and the Coupon Wallet are free. The one paid extra is optional Text Alerts: $5 a month for up to 500 texts.
Prices And Coupons
How often are prices checked?
Every tool once a day, early in the morning. Coupons are checked several times a day. Each tool page says when its price was last checked.
Why doesn't my store's price match?
We track Harbor Freight's online price. Stores sometimes differ, clearance tags are store by store, and a price can change during the day. Always check the price at the register.
Where does the older history come from?
Before we started checking prices ourselves, history was imported from the original hfpricetracker.com.
What's the difference between a coupon, ITC and a Parking Lot Sale?
A coupon is Harbor Freight's regular deal anyone can use. ITC coupons are only for Inside Track Club members (Harbor Freight's paid membership). Parking Lot Sales are big weekend events with their own prices. We mark each kind with its own color.
What does "Seen Cheaper" mean?
The deal on the tag has been beaten before. Worth waiting unless you need it now.
How does "Buy Now Or Wait" work?
We compare today's price to the tool's own history and how often it goes on sale. The deal forecast is a guess based on past deals, not a promise.
Something on a tool page looks wrong.
Use "Something Wrong Here?" at the bottom of the tool's price box. It comes straight to us.
Alerts And Your Account
How do alerts work?
Watch a tool, a brand, a department or a keyword and pick a target price or "any deal". We'll email or push you for free, or text you if you add Text Alerts, depending on what you turn on in the Alert Center.
How much are text alerts?
$5 a month (plus Texas sales tax where it applies) for up to 500 texts, billed through Stripe. Pay with a card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. Cancel any time from the Alert Center and texts keep working until the end of the month you paid for. Email and push alerts stay free.
Can I give a friend a free month?
Yes. Once you have Text Alerts, your Alerts page has a share link. Your friend's first month is free, and once they pay for month two, your next month is free too (up to 12 a year).
What number do texts come from?
Sign in and look on the Alerts page. We keep the number off public pages to keep bots and spam away. There's a button there to save it to your contacts.
Why did my alerts stop?
If emails to you bounced or were marked as spam, we stop sending so we don't hurt delivery for everyone. Your Account page will say so, with a button to turn email back on.
Can I get money back if the price drops after I buy?
Harbor Freight has often adjusted the price within 30 days with your receipt, but it's up to them and the store. Family accounts can forward receipts and we'll flag anything that dropped.
How do I delete my account?
Account page, Your Data. You can download everything first. Deleting is permanent.
Privacy
Do you sell my information?
No. No ads, no selling, no third-party trackers. The Privacy page has the details.
Do you track my emails?
Our emails can tell us when they're opened and clicked, so we know which alerts help. Turn it off any time on your Account page.
