Milwaukee 46" Tool Chest $555 (reg $698) at Home Depot B&M - Update now $350 YMMV

+17 Deal Score

YMMV. Milwaukee 46" tool chest (top and bottom units) rang up at $555 at Home Depot B&M. Marked at $698 on the floor. In box, not a display model. Lowest price I've ever seen.

Link: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwa.../206126307

Store SKU: 1001399836

Even though it says online that the only option is ship to store, I found that several stores actually had them in stock (in some cases, way up on top of the shelves in the aisles). The sign with $698 on the box I bought indicated it was a Black Friday special, so perhaps these were stocked in stores specifically for Black Friday and then didn't sell through. Just a guess. Not sure if it matters, but I took a picture of the box and showed it to the cashier to ring it up (as opposed to scanning the box itself -- combined we're talking 400lbs+ here) and she used the above store sku (listed on the HD website) to ring it up.

Good luck!

UPDATE:

Now $350 at the Washington DC Home Depot with at least one more on the floor. The deeper 46" chest (newer model) is also marked down to $450 (from $898) and I saw at least one of those too. The 52" chest with wood top is $250 from $498 (I saw at least two) and the 26" chest is $225 (from $450). Great deals all around. Hopefully some other DC SD'ers can grab them and others will find similar deals at other stores!

I have this chest and it's awesome. It's OOS at all the HD's I checked because Milwaukee has a newer version - most likely the HD near you is just trying to clear out the old ones to make way for the new version.

Great buy if you can find one at $555; be sure to take in a 10% Lowe's coupon and have them apply it as a competitor's coupon to save fifty bucks.

I have this and the Dewalt. Not worth the money, and Milwaukee's customer service is worthless if something breaks.

I haven't seen the dewalt in person, but this blows away the husky, kobalt, and craftsman boxes I've used.

Will the online stock checker show if my store has it or do I have to go there?

The all yellow DeWalt chest? I'm a DeWalt guy all the way, but kicking them around in Home Depot years ago the Milwaukee seemed better. I'm really interested to hear your comparison if you're up for it! This Milwaukee chest has been on my wish list for many years.

Online stock checker did not work for me - 2 different stores said 0 and then I found it in both stores (1 of which had 3...)

You need to give better information to backup your statement. I purchased this last year and it is fantastic in my opinion. The Dewalt box was nice also but this was definitely higher quality.

Mine were store models and nothing has broken on them yet. I would recommend to anyone who is in need a box to go check this out. The shelves are an absolute dream. They slide out very smoothly. It is one of the higher quality hardware store boxes you can get. I purchased mine on clearance but would not hesitate to purchase this at $555 if I needed a box.

Eh...got the top for 50 and the bottom for 100. NOT Slickdeals.
I got mine for this price also but this would be very hard to replicate considering that it happen last year. For those who need it, this is a very good box. $555 is likely not the best deal you can get but if you are in the market and need one now, I would highly recommend it.

Thanks. Was it on the floor or did you have to ask someone to find it on a shelf?

This was a clearance deal and pretty YMMV. However this should pretty much be ignored since it will be near impossible to replicate unless you have a time machine. That is why I did not mention the price in my original reply.

This is a very nice box and I would pay $555 if I was in the market for a new box and needed it ASAP.

I had the top part of this chest, or a chest very very similar to the top part of this. It was extremely nice. I've had low and mid level craftsman chest, viper chest and I can't remember what else, but this was clearly the nicest for pretty much any reason you can think of. I just didn't keep it because I already have enough tool related stuff.

Curious as to what your exp with them has been?

I had a M18 Fuel drill make horrible sounds out of no where. They didn't even ask for the receipt, they knew from the serial it was within warranty. All they wanted was to hear it over the phone and that was enough. Sent me an overnight label and I had it back within 48 hours and working.
