Went shopping today

[PassnThru]

My niece has a birthday coming up - she requested a small home tool kit. So we headed out to Sears today and looked at what they had. I looked at an Evolve tool kit and decided to go to Lowes and see what they had. When we got to Lowes it was like I've seen this before
So here is the Evolve kit we looked at:

And here is the Kobalt set at Lowes:

Some of the tools are different but the bags looked the same. I didn't have them side by side but I had just looked at the Sears kit and you would have a hard time telling the difference between them. Makes me wonder if the same company makes both kits or if there are two different companies sourcing the bags from the same supplier.

All the tools are made in the same factory in china I guess.

Here we go.

I hope not - my intention was to merely point out the similarities.

Imho the kolbalt looks better though.

Yeah - I bought the Kobalt set. I thought the tool selection was a little better and I didn't want to go back to Sears again. After all, they are like almost a half mile from each other

Danaher supplies both stores with their tools; thus, they look similar. No reason for them to reinvent the wheel; if they can supply both stores with a similar but "different" looking product, fulfill their contracts, they sealed their end of the deal.
