Deal Details
Lots of good deals here and they are all "hackable". I needed the 7 1/4 miter saw, but had to add something to get it over the $500 threshold for $150 off. I got it for $326.10 by adding the M12 4.0ah starter kit, shipping the miter saw to home and doing a store pickup on the starter kit, and then canceling the starter kit.

$150 off $499+
$80 off $399+
$30 off $299+

Nice deal on the mitre OP. Confirmed hackable online with the other options. Can find some really great deals on individual tools that way. So many combinations.

Examples:
Can get 4-in-1 installation driver (tool only) for $126 when using 2 other similarly priced tools to get over the $500 threshold. The 4-in-1 kit + 6ah for $199 today on special buy is still a better deal though because you get a 2ah, a 6ah, and a charger for ~$70.


Can also get the M12 3/8 stubby impact wrench for $126 as well.

I'm see till new to buying tools. I need a ratchet. Can someone please point me in the direction of which one to get. I've read it's actually better to NOT get the brushless version.

As far as saw it was once at $272 but was sold out within hours. It's nice but on mine I already broke the lifting handle since it's made out of thin plastic and at bolt connections it's half empty on the inside so be careful to just lift upward only on it and not pull up sideways or handle will "crack".
Saw is lightweight and handles most what I need it for but for steps retrofit project I had to use 12" one.
It splits the discount so the best you'll get is about 30%, not the best deals since with battery kits and multiple buys there were better ones but still good discount if you need any of these or they don't get included with other deals.

For the online hacks like this one, how do you cancel the in store pickup side?

Cancel online / call store and cancel later / don't pick it up and let it auto-cancel?

Nothing wrong with the brushless version except for the larger physical size.

I have and use the smaller brushed version all the time, love it. The smaller head and body gets into tighter spots in the engine bay.

I usually ship unwanted items to home and pick up wanted items at store. Cancel the ship to home items after placing order.

Has anyone had experience with the table saw? Worth a shot for hard woods and soft.

The table saw is great. Really is.

I just ripped through 3/4 oak at an angle to make a floor transition and it didn't bog down the blade and didn't burn the wood in a single spot. Awesome saw.

It's still a battery table saw, so runtime-wise it has its limitations, but as as full time carpenter, it works great for my needs (and I have multiple HO) batteries

Thanks op!

I have the Ridgid 7.25" cordless miter and its great. Not sure its worth upgrading to the Milwaukee (I have both battery systems)

BUT I might jump on the Fuel table saw. I love my 10" Ridgid granite-topped saw, but sometimes its just a PITA to be using such a big saw for small stuff, or I need a saw out in the yard and it obviously doesnt move very easily Smilie

Looking through these, most of the more common or less expensive tools can be and have been had for better prices or deals. Buy more save more seems to be best for the more expensive and less promo'd tools which are fairly rarely discounted or bundled. Just fyi.

Yep...it doesnt stack with some of the buy-this-get-that deals they have right now. For example the table saw + trim router deal *might* be better than the table saw + buy-more-get-more, if you really wanted the router too.

You've been led astray. Milwaukee Fuel ratchet is the bomb. Make sure you get the size(s) you want. 3/8" is most common.

Thanks for the replies guys. I should also clarify that I will likely only be using this around the house for occasionally putting things together. Are these overkill? Can or should I just use my impact wrench that I got with a drill deal I got on SD a while back?

With this hackable deal I can get https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwa.../302451803 for about $120 after returning whatever else I buy with it. Is that a great deal or should I wait for something better?

Thanks again for the help.

I don't doubt the Fuel is pretty great if moderate torque is the goal. That said, I started off getting the M12 Fuel Right Angle impact, which is awesome. I then had to decide Fuel vs. not for ratchet, and the non-Fuel head is significantly smaller for tight spaces. To each their own.
