Home depot has the digital lighted tire gauge for $6.97 plus tax. Lighted tip and gauge .
Very accurate .
In any light, day or night, this Digital Tire Gauge gives you an instant, accurate and easy-to-read measurement of a vehicle's tire pressure.

Its really that bad. The plastic casing will split and the tip will fall off. Its starts out with +/- 5 PSI error and as you use it, it gets worse +/- 10 PSI (if it still works and displays the right units)
You are better off with one of these stick pencil guages, they are more accurate and will last a life time.

Now I have two electronic gauges. They agree with each other, and with the expensive gauge on my compressor. I haven't seen the one that is for sale, but have more confidence in electronic than pencil.
The biggest down side is the design of the button.
If it flips over or something bumps up against it in your tool box or glove compartment, it's too easy for the button to stay depressed, thereby wearing out the battery. So you have to be careful how you store it. Or pull the batteries out after each use.

It's worth noting that unless you're filling race tires +\- a few pounds on variance really wont make a difference.
Store pickup and "Express Delivery" (ship from B&M store for an extra $8.99) is offered but not "Ship to Home" or "Ship to Store" (shipped from a distribution center), so it is either treated as a seasonal item, or stock is no longer being replenished. Some local stores are OOS, probably sold out of their winter/BF stock.
My gauge reads within 0.5~1 psi of a different brand digital tire gauge I own (a $3 no-name from urlhasbeenblocked) , so I assume they are both accurate, or are off by the same amount.

Yes, it comes with batteries
