£1 a piece, not bad. Plus it comes in a case which is always handy.

This same set was in Aldi a few years back and i bought it, the 5mm and 6mm both broke on the first time i used them on a ceramic tile!!! that said though Aldi is the spot for bargin tools, especially drill bits. but definately not meant for everday use.

I've got a "Marksman" set which looks identical, cost abotu £3 a few years back.
Never tried it on glass, but used it a few times on tiles, much better than struggling with a wondering masonary bit.
