Every time these go on sale at Harbor Freight for less than 5 bucks I pick one up.  Usually $3.99.  Every time.

Almost so cheap it isn't worth changing the battery but I admit I have.

Cheap enough to have one any where it might be handy.  Every car, every work bench, at home and at the hanger, and a couple of spares.  I've had the leads break and it isn't worth the trouble to fix them.
If I end up with a surplus at the end of the year I use 'em as stocking stuffers.

George,

   Even a Radio Shack will probably be hard-pressed to sell
you an ohm meter.  Mostly they're going to have DMM (Digital
Multi-Meter) and a smattering of VOM (analog Volt/Ohm Meters)
which are actually misnamed, since they almost always come
with an Amperes (or at least, milli-amperes) function.
