- Special thanks to psihog for sharing the M18 priced at $219 after the hack $133.97 with these zip codes: 43065, 45459, 45449, 45426, 35501, 35064, 35210, 75455, & 75402.

M18 FUEL Gen-2 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Mid Torque 1/2 in. Impact Wrench w/Friction Ring (Tool-Only)

The Hack
The hack is simple. You buy a promo deal which you get a free tool or battery. There are different ways to do the hack. Pick up at the store, online, or a combination of both. You keep one of the items and the other item is subtracted automatically (if you did not pick it up) or return the item.

The Hack Example:
The M18 ($219) is the key to the hack. It is a promotional item. You have to select that in your cart. The battery ($139) is a free item. It shows you in the cart with the return value based on the zip code of the Home Depot (zip code example 43065) you select.

$133.97 + $85.03 = $219 plus your state sales tax. If you received it in the mail return the item to Home Depot and they will subtract the one you didn't want. If you didn't pick it up Home Depot will subtract the item after a certain time (they will let you know in the email). That is the Hack. Tool Boss on YouTube Channel can explain it better. I cannot provide the link due to the Slick Deals policy.

Showing up as $151 for me. How do you get it to 134?
I'm showing $134 by adding the 5ah battery first to the cart (discounted to $85.03), then the 1/2" impact (discounted to $133.97).
The order you add them shouldn't matter tho, I would think.

Add/edit: Now this was the deal I needed back in May, when I bought this same impact for $219 + tax.It's a great gun, but I don't need 2 of them.

So if you set you store using one of the zip codes above, the price of the impact drops to $219 from $239, which is how some are getting it for $133.97 after the hack as opposed to $151.11. Question is, since none of these stores are local to me, can I set both items to ship to home and then cancel the battery after the order goes through, and still receive the impact for $133.97? I know that typically most are setting the item they do want for store pickup and the item they plan to cancel for home delivery.

I think it'll cancel both orders if you ship both. Select the battery for pickup and just don't pick it up.

bahh I really don't think I need this.. but have been thinking about getting it for too long and this seems like a good deal so I'm biting. I did the impact for shipping, from the zip code posted, and battery for pickup and I just won't pick it up or will call and cancel if that's an option.

Does anyone have a sense on whether this being the gen 2 vs the new gen 3 should be something to consider?

I don't see any details to this 'free 5ah battery' promotion as far as what tools qualify for discount, and what tools don't.
It just shows the promo runs from Aug 2 to Nov 1, 2021.

Since I have this exact same impact already, I tried with a M18 grinder I need (2981-20), but that combo showed no discount on either battery or grinder.

Gen 2 is the latest version of this impact wrench, can't really compare it to the gen 3 compact as this one has much more torque.

No very good if you don't already have a charger. It's a good price for bare tool

That not the grinder for the hack. The 2880-20 is the grinder for the hack.
