I just make my own by wiping a magnet down the blade of an ordinary screwdriver a few times until it is magnetised enough to pick up a screw. As I recall, I used my strongest fridge magnet to make my last one out of a jewellers screwdriver. Several months later it's still magnetised enough.
Yes, I could do this, but I don't have a magnet, nothing!! I'll have to buy one, or the toolset. I kind of want to set of just the types of screwdrivers for PCs, or laptops. My toolset you have to just switch out the heads and that's a pain I think, especially getting them back in their slots. Maybe I'm lazy, LOL, it is more compact and clean in the case.
Maybe your neighbor who keeps everything has one you can borrow How to : Magnetize a Screwdriver - YouTube.
`I use a magnetized parts bowl by Park (bicycle) Tool to toss my screws and what-not into so I won't loose them. Magnetizes them as well. Can magnetize screwdrivers as well It is really handy for any kind of job, but I bought it for bike wrenching

Another all-around tool I find handy is a digital caliper. Can't do without it now I have this one:

I've had a tool similar to this for a few decades:
