I haven't been in Sears in a while (have they gone under yet?) but they generally stand by their tools for years. Harbor Freight will probably give you a new tool on the spot too, but only because there are only two people working the whole store.
Craftsman tools no longer have lifetime warranties on most tools which is why when I went to buy my socket set I opted for another brand. A lot of my tools are kobalt from lowes which I've read several places are actually designed by snap on. I broke an extension on a lug nut and they swapped it out with zero paperwork.
