I saw these at the store today on a wingstack in the electrical aisle.

Pretty good deal if you need a basic home electrical test set.

For $30, it's a good deal. I don't recommend that ticker (voltage detector) though. I've had a few and won't buy another. A Fluke ticker alone will cost you $30. This is better model.

I agree, I bought the voltage detector and can't wait to replace it. It senses voltage fine but the switch is so sensitive that you can't do anything without the switch actuating. A week after using beeping sound sent me searching for the source and I found that it had switched on and now sounding a low battery warning.

The rest of the kit makes it a good deal if they work fine, though I have no experience with them.

This Fluke starts at 200v, so its useless for residential 120Vac.

Sorry, try this one instead. I know Fluke had a recall on this product some time ago, right after they started producing them in China. Fluke's website has the info on the recall.

I don't know of any ticker that's still manufactured here. If you look around you might find one of the old made in the US ones.
