"T"Breath, I expected better from you. Not really impressed with what you bring forth. Many filler pieces. Appears to be specifically for Lowe's & Ace Christmas product as they are the only ones with this product number and zero reviews.

I love how these sets are assembled to make it sound like they are huge but in reality they have more bits than sockets.

You get "6" 1/2 sockets? I have the older craftsman version of this set and there are 15 1/2 sockets at least maybe more. The drawers take up so much room and don't hold much, wasted space.

This is a general use mechanics set, not a socket set. It contains a wide variety of tools in a relatively compact and portable case. If you don't need or want the variety of tools included in a set like this and only care about sockets, then you should be looking for a socket set instead.

The 262 piece set for $149 is a lot better value.

https://www.lowes.com/pd/CRAFTSMAN/5013279203

Or the 450 piece set from Sears for $199 + $20+ shipping.

Are they counting the bit and wrench holders and box as pieces too?

Lowe's ended the additional military 10% on sale and clearance items plus a variety of other stipulations back in March of this year if I'm not mistaken. The military discount is still well worth it though when applicable.
