Normally just a tick under $200. Black Friday sale at $99.98.
Item: 338518
I ordered online last night and picked up today at closest
store location. I believe the price is good through today.
1/4", 3/8", and 1/2" sockets plus lots of other stuff.
Should be much higher quality than Harbor Fright stuff.

Before buying check out the coments about the set.
"Bought for the $99 promo and love the set, but the 20 small wrenches are
junk! ALL of the 1/2" sockets are 12 point, not sure why you want 12 point
not 6... Matter of fact, most 3/8" are also 12 point. Case is well made,
tons of room for more tools! Ratchets are the best I have ever owned! Love
the color coding on all sockets. All in all, I love it. wish they sold a
case like it for my other tools!" This was one man's opinion, there are
several satisfied customers of this wrench set.
Of the end wrenches the set goes from 1/2" to 5/8". You will have to
purchase a separate 9/16" and 3/4" to complete this set.
I personally bought the plier set, and first time I used the groved pliers
they stripped on me and wouldn't hold a nut tight.

David,
Here in Oz we have a saying; "horses for courses."
I applied that to the tools I carry in Double Trouble, they all come from Harbor Freight.
Are they the best tools out there ABSOULTELY NOT!
In the four years I've been using them have they done the job YES!
If I had to use them day in day out to make a living - MAYBE YES, MAYBE NO?
Do I like buying items NOT made in the USA (or Australia) - ABSOULTELY POSITIVELY NO!!!!
Regards,
Rob M.

I used to buy cheap tools.
A low price is not always a bargain.
Although Kobalt does have "some" decent tools.
