I got a call this afternoon from my local Sears tool guy (yes, I spend WAY too much money there) who was keeping an eye on the 260 piece Mechanics Tool Set that Sears used to sell for $299. I wanted the old 260 piece set and not the new 255 piece set because the old set is made in the USA while the new one is made in China.
Anyway, he told me they had just marked them down to $149 so I immediately drove over and bought one. After getting home and thinking more about it, I drove back to the store just before they closed tonight and bought the last two sets. I am keeping one and giving one as a gift. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the third one, but I just couldn't pass up the last of the 'Made in USA' sets.
Here's my emailed receipt as proof:

As far as I know, there is no way to check the inventory or status with Sears online system because this is a 'clearanced' item, but there are clearly some of them remaining in stores. Check your local store(s) if you want one of the last sets.
Hopefully this information has been helpful and may also allow you to 'persuade' your local store to match this pricing? Good Luck, and please post your store location here if you get one and let us know if there are any left!
