Over at Tool Nut, they have an exclusive Milwaukee tool flash sale, two days only, ending 11/27/19. With this promo, you save $25 off $100+ orders.
There are some exclusions – the promo won’t work on preorders or promo items.

The promo works on most Milwaukee Packout tool storage products, M18 and M12 cordless power tools, accessories, and a whole bunch of other tools and accessories that are rarely discounted in Black Friday and Holiday tool deals.
Update: It now looks to work on all Packout products. It wasn’t working on the crate before, but now it is!

Thanks! Been waiting to pick up the 2771-20 M18 Transfer pump, guessing there won’t be a better deal.
Mike
Love the transfer pump. Use it for draining water heaters in basements. Self priming, replaceable impeller and shuts off when it runs dry.

Same promotion at MaxTool – plus $25 off most everything else (Honda excluded) if you spend $100

I’ve never shopped at maxtool. I’ve had great shopping experiences with Tool Nut (they’re also an affiliate and a friendly site), and so that’s why they’re on my radar.
fred
I have not shopped them extensively – but when I have they seem to ship quickly (via FedEx). They also do not seem to sell (backorder) stuff they can’t ship.

Doesn’t seem to work on rolling toolbox.

If you are looking to get the packout rolling tool box Ace hardware has it for $89 instead of normal $129.

Thanks for the heads up. This gives me a touch choice. I was looking at the promo $200 M12 Surge kit where you get the extra 6ah battery as a bonus. However, with this deal I can get the bare tool for $125. I have batteries, so I don’t need any to use the Surge, but you can never have enough batteries in my opinion. So, for me it comes down to whether two 2ah and one 6ah batteries are worth $75. Put that way the kit looks pretty attractive, but as they say, the road to hell is paved with up charges…
Either way, I love the oil drivers. Getting away with not wearing hearing protection and the reduced fatigue on my wrist is worth giving up some torque. Its way my go-to driver is a Ryobi QuiteStrike, even though its a relatively low end brand.

If you buy the M12 surge kit in store, you get a *free 6AH battery.
Buy it, put the kit in your car and walk back in the store for a refund on the 6AH battery. This nets ~$60 back in your wallet. Making the whole kit $140 before taxes.
The kit and the battery have separate max refund values on the in-store receipt.

They back ordered a bunch of tools that Acme has in stock, probably just for this promotion. Same tactics as Harbor Freight who put out a 15% off no exclusions coupon and then increased the prices on all the stuff they actually wanted to exclude. Its unethical. I have been waiting for a deal on the newer M12 right angle die grinder and so far only Acme has allowed a 11% off coupon on it. If these places want my business they need to be more transparent at minimum or stop claiming their deals are inclusive when they use underhanded means for excluding them.
Chris
I hate this tactic as well. They have the m18 router as a preorder item even though all of my local HD stores have them in stock. And the new barrel grip jigsaw is slightly discounted so it doesn’t qualify for the sale of course
Stuart
I haven’t seen the router yet, either locally or a review sample.
The problem with discounting pre-orders is that a smaller online retailer store might grossly-oversell them, and then customers are unhappily on a waiting list for weeks or longer, waiting for inventory to catch-up.
I like Tool Nut, but if you want a preorder item at a discount, give it a couple of days and try Cyber Monday Discounts or other Milwaukee promos somewhere else.
Randy
I will be waiting for cyber Monday myself. I think Acme is likely to offer an 18% one item coupon so I am going to pay them a visit. This year has been interesting as far as deals. I see that a lot of the deals are centered around getting new people into a platform -by deeply discounting drills and impacts. That’s fine and all but I think with two days left they might be realizing that this is a mistake so they are dumping the price on anomalies like the Dewslt cordless band saw. I think Cyber Monday will be a very opportune time for the tool nerds around here who undoubtedly have at least one drill and one impact already.

I have wanted a M12 stapler. When you posted about the Tool Nut 25% off I went to Home Depot and got a manager and he matched the price and told me if I would apply for a HD credit card he would give an extra $50.00 off. I did not need or want a HD credit card but for $50 I changed my mind. Thanks, I like your web site, ck it often.

This deal is a bit of a scam. Well, maybe scam is too strong a word, but certainly misleading advertising.
You see, ToolNut usually gives you free shipping on orders over $100, however if you put more than $100 worth of Milwaukee stuff to get this $25 discount, you lose the free shipping!
So it’s not really a $25 discount. You actually get less of a discount, because they are taking away the free shipping you would otherwise have, so this eats into the that $25 savings. A bit misleading, if you ask me.
P.S.
I double checked – if you empty your cart and put a bunch of non-Milwaukee stuff that is not subject to the discount, you get the free shipping (but no $25 discount, obviously). If you then try to put the Milwaukee stuff back in, as soon as you reach the $100 threshold for the Milwaukee stuff they immediately tack on shipping charges (i.e. the free shipping disappears).
