Home Depot has the M18 FUEL 9 Gal. Cordless DUAL-BATTERY Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum for $147.04 after you select the M18 FUEL Gen-2 18V Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Mid Torque 1/2 in. Impact Wrench (Tool-Only) with Drill Bit Set as your 'free' tool and return it, often referred to as a hack. It breaks down to $147.04 for the Vacuum and $151.96 for the Impact Wrench.

Decent deal I think if you need the extra power/capacity over the 6 Gallon single battery deal, but be aware it requires and runs both batteries simultaneously, you can't run it on a single battery.

Great price. It's a bit bulky but has good suction and is fairly quiet. Build quality is noticeably better than my Ridgids. Runtime on anything less than 6.0s will be awful, even on low setting. I bought some generic vacuum bags off Amazon and they fit well enough and keep the filter clean.

I used Powertec VF3502 for 12-16 gallon Ridgid vacs because I had some extras lying around. The cardboard piece slots right into the holder near the suction port inside the vac. There is a bit of excess material since these bags are made for larger vacuums. The VF3503s (5-9 gallon) may fit better but I've not tried them out yet.

I use one at work with 8.0 and it's great. Has great run time and great suction. I'd recommend getting bags to keep the filter clean and for easier trash disposal.

Indeed, looks like the deal is dead. Earlier today it had the 'Select the free tool' option below, that seems to be gone. Although the 'free tool online only' box still shows on the image. Might be worth checking back in case the option reappears.
