Some decent discounts for the next 2 days from Acme tool on some of the more popular Milwaukee stuff. A few Packout kits are discounted as well as some tools and batteries including $20 off the new 2485-20 M12 Die Grinder. They usually kick you a $10 coupon for signing up to their newsletter as well which should stack.

Only downside is the free shipping threshold is $199 although their shipping rates are very reasonable at ~$8. They're also one of the last major etailers that hasn't adopted national sales tax only charging tax in 19 States.

Not sure how popular this sale will be but generally speaking when they sell out of something they don't allow backordering so be aware of that.

For those of you that bought the die grinder, make sure to setup the collet correctly. It makes a world of difference. :D

I received mine a week or two ago and the collet was correct from the factory, so perhaps they've fixed the issue at the factory.

Ditto. I got one off eBay a couple weeks ago and it was correctly seated in the cap. I didn't believe people posting - was surprised to see an ER-esque collet in a die grinder

Did I miss a memo?

I snagged a mounting plate and a pair of the compact organizers. I'm going to use them to make a quick detach first aid/trauma kit and maybe a tool kit for my truck. A lot cheaper and a lot more durable than most of the "tactical" stuff intended for that purpose.
