Mine shows up this afternoon...didn't want another battery platform but these are Uber nice tools and I didn't have a cordless multi master type toolJumped on the German made Fein multitool + 2ah battery for $99 - there are def some deals w this promo
Looking forward to going cordless on the multitool, one of those tools thats so nice to just grab and go.
Lowe's has the 4ah battery on sale for 49 dollars that will work with the OMT. Originally was going to have it shipped to home but they offered a future 10 dollar discount to have it picked up instead.

I see Amazon has it for the same price but not sure it's worth the risk of receiving a counterfeit instead since they comingle stock.

It's been 2 weeks now and my construction jacks still have not shipped. If they are using this sale to generate new customers, that's not how it is done.

I agree, over on slickdeals some people report having had the order prepped for shipment this past friday while others who ordered that morning have not yet received notification...I ordered at 7:30 Pm that day and it stated "Est. Delivery: Mon.3/23 - Mon.3/30" so I'm assuming that they planned ahead and had sufficient stock on hand...if I see no activity by WED I'm going to contact them.

Wiha vs. Bosch today
Best deal IMO is the Bosch Flexiclick 12V kit for $99! (factory reconditioned)
Also a great buy is the Wiha 3/8" impact socket set - includes both metric and SAE sockets on nice rails for $15

Mine hasn't showed up yet, will post when it does.
Are you saying you got this through the LBS promo and it's dated 3/23?
Yep, it arrived yesterday. The OMT has a date of 3-2023, the charger had a build date of 12-2022. I'll have to look at the battery and figure out the date code a little later.

This seemed to be the best deal to me. In for 2!
Got mine today and tool and charger were both marked 2023. Battery was a little harder to figure out but it looks like the first three digits of the nine digit serial number are the date code, but really not sure. For mine the first three numbers are 321 which lines up with Jan 2023, which is in line with the tool and charger.

Today is Fein vs. Craftsman
Great deal on the Fein Turbo 1 dust extractor. I think this must be the lowest priced dust extractor on the Internet right now.
They also put the Turbo 1 bags on sale and BOGO.
Today is the day to finally get rid of your noisy old "shop vac"!

Decent deal on the sawzall blades and holder, I ordered 2 to try and spread out the shipping costs.
Ironically I scored some MP blades yesterday for a buck a blade, NOS Milwaukee and Lenox.

If only they would ship my construction jack from the first morning of the sale 3 weeks ago. Two previous delivery promises have come and gone, now they are saying June!
Wiha vs. Fein today
Today only there is a promo code for another 10% off that works even on the "last brand standing" deals: APRILFOOLS
IMO, every one of Fein's deals are incredible, and the 10% promo code makes them even more special.
The Fein multitool kit is now $95 (it was $99 on a previous day) and their Turbo 1 dust extractor is $200 again. But as noted above, take another 10% off with the promo code "APRILFOOLS"
All three different Fein multitool starlock blade kits are screaming deals. I constantly see people complaining about the cost of these starlock blades from Fein or Bosch, despite the fact that they are Swiss- or German-made, work better, and last longer than the cheap generic (non-starlock) blades. Now is your chance to stock up for cheap.
The Wiha ESD kit looks good for $38 if you need such tools.

Not sure how I missed the extra 10% off.
I would have jumped on that vac. Then of course some blades for free shipping 
Final round of deals up:
Tempted on the 2 pack of M12 batteries, the Whia socket sets are tempting as well but don't have a need

I'm an idiot. Despite the fact I ordered the dewalt construction jacks on the morning of the first day and they have blown thru two delivery dates and are now promising to ship in June I ordered the Milwaulkee vacuum this morning but they aren't shipping that either....

yes you have been fooled.
Most of the stuff I've ordered shipped promptly, but not all. A couple items noted in the cart when I ordered that shipping would be longer, the bigger discount items specifically were that way. My expectation is they're in partnership with the manufacturer on those, we got a cheaper price in exchange for slower delivery.

No complaints here - half of what I ordered shipped quickly, other stuff still waiting. I assume like you said there's a deal with manufacturer - does not bother me to wait slightly
And 5 min ago I got a Fedex notice saying another package from Acme had been a label generated....new toy showing up mid-week
