I have been waiting for a deal on Milwaukee power tools. If you know of a deal or when to expect another Milwaukee power tool deal let me know. I have been waiting for something like a “Buy a tool & get a free battery”.
Many online dealers have a buy a kit get a battery free. M18 gets a 3.0 XC. Fuel gets a 4.0 XC. CPO throws in a flashlight as well as the battery if you buy a fuel kit. As for bare tools, I’m waiting for that as well. There was a buy two bare tools get a battery free last month. There’s no telling whats coming up as Milwaukee’s putting out a new generation of tools in a month.
M12 or M18?
I saw the m12 drill and impact combo with a free 3.0 battery on clearance at HD for $129

I think I saw Home Depot online running a free m18 battery with a kit purchase. They seem to have something like that pretty often.
M18 Fuel or M18 Standard. All the bigger online merchants have it right now. Of course, HD should match it, with some effort on your part.
I’ve seen some HD’s have clearances on the M18 6 1/2 circular saws, oscillating tools and jig saws. They’re probably being upgraded to new models. If you get lucky you can score them as low as $30. Not bad if you can find them.
Weird. Actually had this thought this morning:
Would a google alert set-up work for something like this? “Milwaukee M18” would probaby be good to go. Maybe just “M18”.
Dunno, not super-innernetz savy.
The 2697-22 set has been on clearance for $229 (usually 299) in a couple stores near me. Drill and impact driver with two m18 batteries.

I have to check the local HD today I’d grab all three if they where $30.
I’m watching for a deal on a 2457-20 3/8 M12 wrench
or
2668-20 3/8 M18 Impact Wrench
M18 FUEL 3/4in high Torque Impact Wrench Kit 2764-22 for $62.67.
Probably to good to be true but here it is:

Dude, have you ever bought from them before?
Am I missing something? That seems like too good of a deal. Now I’m interested.

Verify before you buy, the description is the friggin’ flashlight!!!!
Everything indicated the impact but if you look at description it says flashlight!
Now that’s just dirty. Pays to keep your eyes open. Thought that was too good to be true.ChrisK1970 wrote:

Right? I’m like paid, done almost hit the PayPal button then when you look it describes everything in the kit, has the model number etc. but the first description is the flashlight.
I’m confused. The what’s included section describes the drill. I think this whole thing is just messed up.

Yeah and if you look at the side bar it says PROMO. Screwed up. I’d take the plunge and see what I get but money is money.

I will never understand Amazons pricing

Not everything listed for sale on Amazon is sold by Amazon itself. Anyone can sell goods on Amazon for any price they want to sell them. It’s a little bit like setting up a store in a mall. Sometimes you see things listed for ridiculously high prices for no good reason.
Like I said.
It’s probably too good to be true. Label is of the 3/4 Impact. Description is about a light.
I’m not going to try.
If I needed a battery the light with the battery is worth $62.
If you get the impact great deal.
If you get both super!
Never heard of them before so I’ll wait and see if the gutsy guys that ordered lucked out or got got nothing.
Wow if that was true that would be DAMB GOOD DEAL!!
For $73.30 with shipping and a 14 day return policy I’ll try my luck!
I’ll let you guys know what I receive..if anything!
Someone willing to take one for the team! Hopefully it is the drill.Santi_78342 wrote:

I honesty don’t even have a use for a 3/4 wrench!! That thing would probably snap the lugs off of my Jeep!
man I don’t know just sounds to damn fishy! hope all goes well Santi
I am not too worried about it. If anything fishy goes on I’m sure PayPal and American Express will both have my back 😉
…hopefully :P….
It’s up to $546 now so I’m guessing that it was a pricing error. You may or may not get it for the posted price. Anyone that buys a flashlight for $550 should have their head examined.
Here you go. Free battery and the prices have been lowered too. Too bad I can’t afford any of these or I would be all over that fuel saw all and grinder.

I’ll actually take that as a good sign! It was processed through PayPal as soon as I submitted my order so if they won’t honor the posted price, which they better! I’ll be expecting a full refund. It’s not like they can charge me again..

If it was a free 5.0 I would probably pick up the grinder kit. I really don’t need any more 4.0s but could use a 5.0 or a couple of compact 2.0s
Unless you NEED to upgrade or add tools, I would strongly suggest waiting to buy any milwaukee kit until they run a promo, which they do at least a couple of times a year. I’ve found great deals at HD. Last year i got the M12 kit with drill/driver and impact, 2 std and 1 xc battery, and charger on sale for $99. I also picked up an M12 jigsaw as one of their daily deals for $50, which included another battery and charger. granted these are the entry level offerings and not the Fuels, but still an amazing deal for a product that does 95% of what I need.
You could also check ebay if you really want to buy ASAP. i bought my first M18 milwaukee set brand new from a reputable seller for a great price couple of years ago.

Wow. Just wow.
So they definitely screwed up because they refunded me the $73.30! They didn’t contact me though.
Well I was hoping you wound up getting a hell of a deal. At least you didn’t get shafted and they refunded your money.

Thanks for letting me know of the deals though!

OF COURSE I GOT CURLY FRIES! + a French dip 😛
I’m happy I got my money back…but I would have been more happy if I would have gotten a $500 kit for less than $100!

So the set I mentioned earlier (2697-22) Impact Driver, Hammer drill + 2 3 aH batteries is still $229 in store, but is now on home depots website including a third 3 aH battery for free. The online price is $249. The free battery is online only.
M18 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Hammer Drill/Impact XC Combo Kit (2-Tool) with Free M18 3.0 Ah XC Battery
And if anyone doesn’t have an m12 impact driver, they are giving a free m12 angle drill with the purchase of the m12 impact kit (two batteries and charger included). So that is the impact driver, angle drill, two batteries and a charger for $129
Yeah the next day the price was up. I was hoping you’d get it, sorry dude 🙁Santi_78342 wrote:
