Craftsman 19.2v drill/driver and impact driver combo

I got an email today from Craftsman Club and saw the following combo for $99.99:

The website has it for $129 but the email states $99.

Looking for an opinion on this model. I was holding out for a 18V Ridgid impact driver but was wondering if I should jump on this deal.

Edited: I guess I should have did a search first. I found my answer in the Bargain Alert section.

I think this gives you the best of both worlds for not many $$$. The #'s for the I.driver are a bit low but still pretty good.

I have the full set and have since bought the Impact driver and stapler for the price of that offer to you (each).
But don't get me started on price differences between US and Canada.

EDIT:
I think they are good tools and I find a charged battery lasts a long time.

I bought a Milwaulkee 14V cordless hammer drill and used it for the first time last night to drive drywall screws. Paid $160.00 for it with a cordless drill and light. I was pleasently surprized by the impovement the impact driver provides over a regular drill for driving screws. I am now a big fan of impact drivers.

While shopping for impact drivers, I ruled out tools greater the 14v due to their size and weight. I felt 18V tools were too heavy and bulky for most of the work I would do. My initial assessment is that the Milwaulkee has plenty of power at 14.4 volts.

The Craftsman tool seems like a pretty good value if you are looking for a heavier more powerful tool. Good luck with your decision. You won't regret having a impact driver if you drive many screws.

I have the set and love them. Got them as part of a larger set (with a trim saw, recip saw, etc) and use them nearly every day. Good torque, holds charge very well. Half tempted to get another set, since I only have five (or is it six) cordless drills right now...
