I thought to check something just now, and it worked! Over at Acme Tools, their $20 off $100+ Milwaukee coupon code works on the new seasonal Milwaukee M12 Fuel + Packout combo kits.
if… you bump your order over $100 with any another Milwaukee product.

Buy the M12 Fuel brushless hammer drill kit, or the brushless impact driver kit, add any Milwaukee tool or accessory to your order that’s greater than $1, and get an extra $20 off!
Shipping is free on $199+ orders. So if you get nothing else, you’ll have to pay shipping, but the to-your-door cost will be less than the regular promo price for either kit.

M12 Fuel Packout Kits – read our previous post for more details
Don’t forget your coupon code: MILW2017 . Details here.
“Fillers”
Personally, I’d add a Shockwave impact-rated bit, for convenience.
- 1″ Phillips #2 bit
- Power bit Phillips #2
- Power bit Square #2
- Power bit Torx T20
- Power bit Torx T25
- Power bit Phillips #2 (non-impact)
- 9/64″ Thunderbolt black oxide drill bit
You can use a similar strategy on other Milwaukee products, such as their new M12 stapler (buy now).

These new M12 Packout combo kits feature M12 Fuel tools (not the new ones coming out soon), a charger, (1) 2.0Ah battery pack, and a new small Packout tool box.

Did this with the stapler and it worked perfectly. Thanks!

Worked perfect, I added 10 in 1 screwdriver MILWAUKEE-48-22-2102 screwdriver and M12 work nice together

Two weeks ago, at HD, I got this impact driver + the brushless driver drill with this charger, a large and a small battery and a cordless jigsaw with a hard case for the drills and accessories for $200. Seems like a much better deal to me.

Those deals were posted about in Stuart’s post on the 14th, and are still available, but they cost more than twice as much ($80 vs $200), you pay sales tax at HD vs. not most places with Acme, these come with a packout case, not a blowmold case that most people throw away, and not everyone needs the extra tools, its only a better deal if it fits your needs better. Many people would find this to be the better deal for them.

Not to take away from this deal because it is a good one. I’m just giving pause myself (and a caution awareness) as Milwaukee already presented a very soon to be released 2nd gen:
https://toolguyd.com/best-new-milwaukee-tools-from-nps17/
Which is going to feature 3 speed and torque selection modes plus a self-drilling screw mode, for 4 modes total. I just know if I pull the trigger now and upgrade my non brushless m12 I’m going to get serious buyer’s remorse in a couple months. I’m gonna wait for the 2nd gen updates.

I did try to mention that:
“These new M12 Packout combo kits feature M12 Fuel tools (not the new ones coming out soon)…”
Let me go back and add the link (sorry, I forgot about my post; we’ve been waiting on review samples to do a review with in lieu of a preview and then review).
The new impact boats some improvements. The new drill does too, but it doesn’t take as big of a leap forward.
However, I can guarantee that you won’t be able to buy any M12 Fuel Gen-2 kits for anywhere near this price point.
This kit is about bang for the buck, and it provides a LOT of it.

I have the gen1 Fuel impact driver and i haven’t found it lacking. Without seeing a more detailed review of gen2 i can’t say for sure, but based on Stuart’s description from his NPS17 coverage, the only thing the new revision has that i want is a shorter length (and that wasn’t quantified, so i’m not sure how much i want it.) The $80 for a Fuel impact driver kit represents the best deal i’ve ever seen on it by far, with the extra bonus that the case is useful.
My kit came with a nice-looking blow-molded case that i really want to be able to find useful, but i just don’t. It takes up too much space and isn’t versatile in what it can hold. I haven’t thrown it away because “maybe i’ll find a use” and i hate throwing away large chunks of plastic, so basically it’s a white elephant.
David
My thoughts as well. I already have the FUEL hammer drill and see no reason to upgrade. I have the non-FUEL impact and need to upgrade to the FUEL. Take this deal or a wait for 2nd Gen… not sure.
Very much doubt we’ll see the 2nd gen at anywhere near these prices

I’ve made up my mind and scrapped together some funds, I’m gonna stop by Home Depot and buy the hammer drill after I get out of class tomorrow. That is, if they have in in stock.
Chris
Update: picked it up before class, left the house early to stop at Home Depot. They had a lot of stuff under tarps in the isle too. :O what could it be!?
So far I’m really liking it drill wise. Hammer drill wise, it’s pretty loud. I’ve never used an actual hammer drill before so I was a bit stunned by the sound. It doesn’t seem to drill the concrete as fast as my brushless Dewalt 3 speed, but it’s a nice tool. Seems to have lots of power. The packout case is MUCH sturdier than I had anticipated. Glad you brought it to my attention that this deal was around!
David
Are you using hammer drill bits with the Milwaukee hammer drill? Hard to imagine how a non-hammer drill would go through concrete faster than a hammer drill. Mine M21 goes through concrete really well up to about 3/8″. Larger bits will work, but slow going.

Stu you can do this on the 2750-21P M18 brushless impact driver combo, too. You previously posted about this being $119 now but expecting it to go $99 for BF (which it is according to leaked HD BF ads).
BUT right now Acme has the same kit at $99 so no need to wait for BF and fight the crowds. Ad a filler like you said then take $20 off and it’s a double whammy: don’t have to fight the crowds AND get paid $20 for staying home.
If ya figure most sales taxes are at least 7% Acme’s shipping is no more than you’d pay at $99+tax on an early morning Black Friday.
