Deal breakdown:
The "combo kit only" has the same price as today's special buy "M12 FUEL 12V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Hammer Drill/Impact Driver Combo Kit 2-Tool w/High Output 5.0Ah Battery" at $199.
However, the combo kit is still eligible for the free 5.0Ah battery but instead of being bundled it is a "Free Gift With Purchase."
So, it is then 'hackable'
Price breakdown becomes:
$74.47 for the 5Ah battery that you can return, never pick-up or whatever your favorite HD hack method is.
$124.53 for the M12 FUEL 12-Volt Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit w/2 Batteries and Bag (2-Tool)
The kit is the 3497-22 kit Includes:
(1) 3404-20 M12 FUEL Hammer Drill Driver Bare Tool
(1) 3453-20 M12 Fuel Impact Driver Bare Tool
(1) M12 Redlithium XC 4.0AH Battery (48-11-2440)
(1) M12 Redlithium CP 2.0AH Battery (48-11-2420)
(1) M12 Battery Charger (48-59-2401)

Ordered a set,thanks.
Placed at two different store for pickup, they charged my card separate per store.
So do they just refund the item price if you don't pickup the battery?

I bought the set used a cashback website.
I select pickup at store. 2 hours later, a locker code showed up in my email
I went to store and took the tool from the locker and went straight to the return desk and asked for a refund of the battery. He refunded me 80 someothing.

So, the deal is : you buy this set and ship it to anywhere you want, then you go back to the store and return the battery. they refund you the full sale value of ($74.47/item $119.00) something plus the tax of that battery.

How's this compare to ryobi hp kit? I was looking for something lighter and smaller

This is an insane deal on a great set. Much better than Ryobi HP

Quote from radmax2009 :
For working on car they may be ok but not lug nuts, I have m18 and that impact isn't great for lug nuts either

For working on cars get m12 stubby 3/8 impact wrench first, that"ll cover most stuff even lug nuts although I still prefer the m18 1/2" impact wrench for lug nuts as it takes about 2/3 knock impacts to get lugs off whereas the m12 stubby will take 10-15 knocks depending on the battery you have so it'll put more wear on sockets as well
you can always use 3/8 to 1/4 impact adapter to use for screws etc on stubby, it's better then to step up from 1/4 impact to 3/8

If stubby isn't enough, m12 fuel ratchet might be next one to buy,
I have all of the above and stubby is generally first I reach for, next is the m12 ratchet
That's exactly what I did. Paired with a nice socket set, universal impact joints and wobble socket set and I can get to any bolts on the family fleet.

In for one and M12, love my M18 tools but doing more work requiring smaller lighter tools. Perfect timing!

looks different item.
The 199 one is Cordless Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit w/2 Batteries and Bag (2-Tool), while the 179 one is Cordless 4-in-1 Installation 3/8 in. Drill Driver Kit with 4-Tool Heads, can anyone comment which one is better for home use?

This deal with the hammer drill + impact driver is much better, it's not a good comparison. The installation driver will be much more limited due to its low power and it looks and feels dumb (you are forced to pull the trigger on the install driver with your middle finger).

Never done the "hack" before. Can I order both for pickup and get them and return the battery right away?

I did it during end of last year holidays so dec 23-jan 24 timeframe. Online order pickup desk person was aware since many customers do this & get refund for extra battery etc in the bundle.
