Milwaukee M12 at Home Depot

[Ign]

Was just at my local store at they had a kit of the M12 3/8" drill, 1/4" hex impact driver and "bonus" oscillating multi-tool for $199. I'm assuming this had two batteries and a charger as it was a kit. Plus with Home Depot's in-store promo you get a free M12 battery at the register; they had actually tied a separate in-clamshell M12 battery around the box of the kit.

That's a good amount of tool for $200.

I haven't looked to see if this is shown on their website as I HATE Home Depot's site. It's painfully slow for me and difficult to search in general.

I think the deal is on the website, but not with the extra battery. It's been at this price since October, if I remember correctly. It's a good deal, and I'm so close to pulling the trigger, but I think I may wait for the brushless impact to come out in early 2013.

Yeah, the brushless stuff looks cool, but at least in the beginning I bet it'll be more expensive and harder to get combo deals like this, eg I doubt we'll see a brushless multi-tool for some time. The multi-tool is really handy, I've used it with a diamond blade to do small grout removal jobs and it's been awesome. Also like that the Milwaukee comes with the adapter to run most (all?) competitors' blades.

yep, wait for the brushless... coming out soon
