inSpent $400 on a power stretcher I barely use, kicking myself
Did your buddy ever try selling his on Facebook Marketplace? Mine bought a $600 tile saw for one bathroom reno and ended up trading it for a case of beer a year later.

inThat $40 serpentine belt tool turned out to be junk
Swear half the money I've spent on "specialty" tools over the years has just been buying new parts for stuff I broke with the last one. That belt tool sounds exactly like the one I got from a pawn shop, thing bent sideways on a Chevy 350 and I ended up using a breaker bar and a prayer. My trick now is to just take the belt off the easiest pulley first, not the tensioner, and then use a long ratchet with a wobble socket for the tension arm. Still managed to snap a belt tensioner bolt last month doing it that way, so maybe I'm not the guy to ask, ha. Just glad I'm not the only one who's turned a quick fix into a whole afternoon project.
