Home Depot has another round of tool deals of the day, and as usual there are plenty of deals from Milwaukee Tool, Dewalt, Ridgid, and Ryobi, plus a couple of other brands.
Some of the Milwaukee tool deals are new and especially compelling.
For instance, the M12 Packout-compatible LED work light and USB charger is regularly $129-149. With the deal of the day special buy, you can get the light with a 2-battery and charger starter kit for $139.

There’s also the M12 cordless blower, regularly $99 for tool-only, for $139 with a 2-battery starter kit.
Some of the deals are not good buys. A single M18 3Ah battery for $105, for instance, is not good. Instead, I’d get the 2-pack with M18 XC 6Ah and CP 3Ah batteries for $179.
The deals of the day end at 3am ET 8/15/23 unless supplies sell out sooner.
If you’re thinking that it’s unusual for Home Depot to be having so many tool-related deals of the day, it’s not you – I’ve noticed the same as well, not that I’m complaining.
Too many tool deals of the day sales events are better than too few, something I hope that Lowe’s realizes at some point.

The M12 Packout light with two batteries seems like a very good deal. The bare tool is $129 (at acme) and $149 at Home Depot, while the Home Depot deal is $139 for the light and a 4ah and 2ah + charger.

Now if I only need the light, or the batteries, or the charger …
If it was two 3ahs in the small package I’d probably go for it.

Home Depot is incredibly annoying with their sales. The better deals are often unpromoted and hidden in all their endless options of weird combos.
This m18 hackzall is the fuel vs the brushed in the deal of the day, for 30 bucks cheaper. Still comes with 2.0 free battery. Just one example. Been years of this nonsense. Occasionly some of the dailys are decent, but normally takes weird search filters to find the real deals – that are not only way better, but run longer than one day impulse buys. Feels shady trying to unload old models for more expensive with the one day only sales. Bugs me to no end.

There is a $249 hackable deal that is similar.
Get the 2962 for like $141 after returning the 5.0 battery for $108.

That $159 M18 FUEL grinder + 5 amp battery got me.

I picked up the M18 compressor at my HD yesterday on sale for $190. I think that tool is normally ~$379ish. I saw it online somewhere for $315. Weird yellow sales stickers on the boxes. They had at least two more. Was it just my store?
Jeremiah James McKenna
Yellow stickers are clearance items. We’re these possibly returns, or were the boxes really dusty? Regardless, that is an awesome deal. If that was in my store’s clearance area, I’d have bought at least one, maybe two and sold one and made enough to pay for all or part of the one I kept.
Chip
No, not returned or dusty. They had two NIB, plus the store display model marked at that same price. Clearance sounds like the right description. But who knows why …

Certain stores have had them on clearance. You also should get a “free” 6.0 battery with it (online deal is a 5.0 but in store it is a 6.0 for some reason). This deal has been lighting up tool forums like the Milwaukee Tool subreddit for a few weeks now. People are netting them for around $100 after returning the “free” battery, but I’d rather keep the 6.0.

Sadly they are all regular price at all my local stores.

I picked the compressor and battery up Monday. Too good of a deal to pass.

I had a chance to use a Milwaukee M18 inflator over the weekend. It was great ! I really like the compressor and I would recommend it to anyone. Only problem is that I do not own one single piece of M18 gear. Sorry, nothing in my shop is red. So, to get an operational M18 compressor would cost me… $378 from Acme. To pump up a tire… almost $400. The tire didn’t cost half as much as the pump which I would use occasionally out of convenience ! I guess this really is a marketing problem. I don’t need another drill. I don’t need another driver. I don’t need another saw. I would “like” a great inflator. But at $378, I don’t think I will be buying one anytime soon.
