Down to 4 tools, including the crappy 6-port sequential charger and the $69 jobsite blower.

These free offers are hogwash even with Milwaukee. I have seen sales where the angle grinder was super low and the batteries included the money they took off the tools added in and vice versa, they got me a few times, when I waited for holiday sales.
Thought I would get a good deal for Xmas only to discover Black Friday deals are the lowest prices on every thing. Xmas sales are slightly higher.

while not listed, it still gave me the $149 price for the batteries and mid torque impact, i just had to add them to my cart separately

Looks like this combo makes the SubCompact Brushless Cordless 6-1/2 in. Circular Saw a historical low of $67.24 after returning the battery.

The best deal was probably during BF 2025 when it came w/two 4.0 Ah batteries and charger for $117 (here).
