October 2022: This One Time...

What is a product you didn't think would sell as well as it did? For Facebook follower Thaer Hamdi it was neck lights.
Nov. 8, 2022

For this month's "This One Time..." question, we asked you, "What is a product you didn't think would sell as well as it did?"

Facebook follower and Cornwell Quality Tools mobile tool dealer, Thaer Hamdi, responded with this: 

"The neck light...when I first heard/saw them, I thought to myself who would wear a neck light when they can wear a headlight instead? Anyway, I've sold more neck lights in two years than I've sold headlights in 10 years."
