It’s that time of the holiday season when some of the best tool deals of the season get even better.
Amazon seems to be holding an unofficial clearance sale where they slashed the prices of tools that were already discounted for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
We can’t say how long this will last, or if these are the best prices we’ll see. All I can tell you is that these tools are less expensive today than last week or even ahead of Black Friday.

(Prices are accurate as of the time of this posting.)
Bosch 18V Brushless Drill Kit – $60.72 (still $79 at Lowe’s)
Metabo HPT 18V Cordless Brad Nailer Kit – $89 ($219 at Lowe’s, which seems excessive)
Lowe’s page says that 10K+ bought the Metabo HPT cordless brad nailer kit last week – presumably when the $99 Black Friday doorbuster deal was live. Amazon’s current price saves you another $10 compared to what proved to be very popular deal pricing.
Dremel 12V 8250 Brushless Rotary Tool Kit – $87.12
Bosch Compact Router – $78.32

So far, I’m seeing price drops on holiday deals from Bosch, Craftsman, and Dremel, but there could be more.
More Price Drops
Bosch 5″ Random Orbital Sander – $51.92
Kilroy
Worth noting that the Bosch 5″ variable speed random orbital sander is down to less than $52. That’s a great tool and lower than the usual $59.xx sale price that the tool typically has (and which I paid for it 10ish years ago…).
Stuart
Thanks! I added it to the post.
Rick
Thanks for that – I just ordered one since mine is getting old and tired.
It first came out about 12 years ago and it’s still the best small corded sander out there (unless you move up to the “exotic” brands and pay a lot more).
Great dust collection, and rock solid reliability.

@Stuart Is it just me or does it feel like Bosch is making a bigger push in the US market this season? It felt like it was building up to this with the ads they have been running through the year and more products overall being highlighted, but if that is the case, do you think they might rethink their strategy if they have so much inventory still that they are doing a soft clearnace?
Stuart
With respect to tool deals? Not really.
I’ve seen a lot of ads too, and they seem aimed at boosting Bosch name recognition in a broad manner e.g. tools, appliances, etc.
I think this is just Amazon seeking to lower inventory levels of high volume holiday tool deal items.

Stuart – Amazon also has the GKF125CEK Colt 1.25 HP router which includes the edge guide and a case for $99.

YES – it’s been this price since last week. Other retailers have it for $159, it looks like Amazon’s pre-deal price was around $130.

I was happy with that brad nailer a couple months back at $130. At $90 I’d be all over it if I didn’t buy it back then.
Mike
Same as Rob. Bought the nailer prime day for 130. Used it to put up 350ft of box trim and it worked fantastic. Cant believe i used to do trim with a hammer and nail set.
for 90 its a great deal.
Andre
For anyone that’s interested Amazon has the DeWalt 735X planer for $548. Good for the planer alone, but not quite as good as the planer stand combo for $650 that home depot has/had

Brad mailer no longer on sale.
Stuart
Looks like it sold out.

Thanks, I managed to order the HPT nailer and the Bosch drill. Both have delivery dates a couple weeks out.
Jeff
I’m still seeing Lowe’s with $99 for the HPT brad nailer with the notation “save $120 through Dec. 3.”
Available for store pickup and local delivery for $2.99, but not shipping.
Rick
Amazon has the Kärcher WD 6 P S wet and dry vacuum on sale, reduced from $350 to $266. Good for connecting with a sander.
(I don’t think this is an Amazon sale though – it’s offered as part of Kärcher’s December sale, and is on sale for the same price on their web site as well.)
Luis
I just saw the Dremel Blueprint Brushless 3 in 1 screwdriver kit on Amazon for $49.99. Looks like a good deal to me:

Stuart
It looks like a bunch are deep-discounted, but not the saw.

Lowes had a cyber Monday deal with that at $49, then an extra $20 came off in the cart making it $29. I don’t even need something like that but I was tempted to get it just to try it out.
