Home Depot has a new round of tool deals of the day, and I think they’re definitely worth a quick look.
Every day now, my news feed is flooded with terrible tool deals “bargains,” and “recommendations.” Somehow a 16 year old cordless drill at $30 more than its seasonal deal price is a “good buy.”
A major publication was recommending the Milwaukee Packout 3-drawer tool box as being on sale at Walmart for $202. Meanwhile, you can buy it from Home Depot for $199. That’s it’s regular price. Add a Packout organizer for $60, and the total comes to $259, but there’s a $50 off $250 “buy more, save more” promo that drops the combo to $209.
So when there are actually good deals to be found, rather than the bad bargains mass media publications keep trying to hype up for clicks and cash, it picks up my day.
Some of today’s deals at Home Depot do just that. I went through the list and saw a bunch of “I’d buy that!!” tools and promos.
The Milwaukee M18 reciprocating saw and Packout tool box bundle I posted about the other day is down another $2. (See New Lower Price on Milwaukee M18 Fuel Sawzall and Packout Deal Bundle). A quick chat or call should get you a price adjustment.
I didn’t include it in the image above, but my favorite Milwaukee M12 lighting combo is $194 again.
There’s a fresh mix of Dewalt 20V Max cordless power tools, including their copper swage tool and brushless 1/2″ ratchet. The bare-tool ratchet sells for $219 at HD and also Acme Tools. $189 for the kit with a PowerStack battery seems like a very good deal to me.
There are some interesting Ryobi and Ridgid cordless power tools too – a Ryobi 18V brushless impact driver and jig saw kit bundle for $159, Ridgid 18V brushless circular saw kit (with 4Ah battery and charger) for $159, and a Ridgid 18V brushless belt sander kit for $119.
It’s a little unusual for the cordless belt sander to be bundled with a lower capacity 2Ah battery, but you get the kit with battery and charger for $5 more than the price of just the tool. That seems acceptable, and you can buy more batteries later.
There’s more – Milwaukee mechanics tool sets and other hand tools, long-reach pliers, hole saw sets, and a trio of Bosch laser measuring tools that have been included in other recent deals of the day.
Of course more garbage tool deals are going to hit my news feed today, and I hope you don’t feel that way about the promos I highlight or analyze. If you see a particularly good deal please share!
Home Depot’s online-only tool deals of the day end at 3am ET 7/30/26, unless supplies sell out sooner.
