I went through this a while back and found that the sets weren't effective. A box of 100 screws can cost as little as $4.00 in this size range ( [www.mcmaster.com] ), and even less if you go to a cheaper/import source.
I went to a local fastener supplier and bought 5-6 lengths each from m2, m2.5, m3, m4, m5, and m6 (plus nuts and washers). IIRC it cost $3-6 a box. The sheer amount of time and frustration saved made it completely worthwhile.
