Deal Details
These are not brushless, but for a drill and an impact driver, with 2 two amp batteries, a charger, and a lifetime warranty, I'm not sure you can do any better - especially if you're only looking for a homeowner kit or you just want a spare.

Home Depot has apparently added this kit to it's subcompact bogo deal. If you add the circular saw as your free gift, then the price of this kit breaks down to $67.09.

Return fraud? If you do it right, you don't even have to return it. You just don't pick it up.
Don't confuse the morality cop by posting with logic. LOL.

Anyone buy the drill set + saw, and return the drill set, keeping the saw?

I wonder how much it'll work out in the end if you did that -- probably around 70-75, I'd imagine.

Buy the drill kit + get the saw as your free tool for this promotion.

Once you get the tools, go to Home Depot and return the saw. You get a prorated amount returned -- in this case, lowering the drill set to effectively $67.

$71.91. Better deal / tool in my opinion.

I want another charger and 2 batteries. Almost worth it just for that.

Agreed. The drill and impact are the low/mid tier Ridgid. The saw is new model and top tier Ridgid.

Or order the 2 from 2 different stores and just pick up the one your actually going to keep. They'll cancel the one you don't want in 7 days and you'll get charged the prorated amount.

Depends on the store -- a rural store kept it for 30+ days even after threatening to cancel after 7 days. They were "being nice", which I can't fault them for. Do a favor and call them, saying "hey, I'm not going to make it in, cancel it for me in advance, thanks."

I'm with you bud. I see you have some very vocal defenders of this behavior. If my children are any indication the louder they are the more they are trying to convince themselves it is ok.

If this were a private sale and I was buying something from the "It's not fraud posters" I would bet dollars to donuts they wouldn't be cool with it if they offered me a deal like $40 each or 2 for $60 and I bought two only to tell them I wanted my $40 back for the first one. Promotions are based on stipulations of purchase. When you "hack" it you are breaking those stipulations of purchase; even if Home Depot doesn't stop you.

This brushless set is not the same though, isn't this current thread for ones that have higher torque and hammer drill features
EDIT: I'm wrong. The new brushless set is same features, but brushless is much much better (I have that set and love it)
