I just bought a 13pc set for twice the price last week so I returned it for the 15pc. The 15pc has one less saw, but extra pilots.

Price seemed to be valid only in the store. This was Monday

Maybe they were leftover from BF?

Not a hot deal so I'm not gonna post it in that forum, but if anyone wants the M12 flashlight and EDC knife deal (2355-20KN), it might be worth looking at Toolup
http://www.toolup.com/Milwaukee-235...t-with-FREE-Hardline-Knife-Pack-In-48-22-1997

It's $99 everywhere right now, but you can use code MIL25 for $25 off if you get the order to $100. I added a single Inkzall marker at $1.29 to do this.

At that point you're at ~$75 which is great BUT shipping takes a huge dent out of the savings. Shipping for me was over $13, but I'm still getting the flashlight, knife and an Inkzall for $89.14.

Not bad. Shipping will vary for each person so YMMV

I've also read rumors of HD codes for $10 off $100, in which case you'd be at $89 also and they should ship free. But technically this was (barely) a little better for me 'cause I'm getting an Inkzall (while better than Sharpies they're still consumables in my shop so I'll take all I can get)

I know flashlight snobs continue to bash the light but I personally love it, I've got two right now and this will be my third. I last paid $83 per light on a Zoro sale so $89 for the three items above is way better. Milwaukee seems to think this knife is worth about $79 retail, but like all Milwaukee stuff never pay retail and wait for promos like this.

Arriveth today

I went in to the HD site and put the 2897-22 drill/impact driver combo kit and then I put in one of the qualifying tools, the M18 wet dry vac. The drill/driver set is normally 399.00 and the vacuum is 99.00. The total for both came to 348.00 before tax. That is the best deal that I have seen yet. I won't be able to use them for a few months but I think I will get them after Christmas. You have until Jan. 31st.

Missed out on Vet's Day from CPO. 11% off your order, free shipping, no tax. I picked up the 2897-22 kit with the free Sawzall for $350.

I got into a bind yesterday at work and ended up buying the multi tool bare. (Good excuse to buy a new tool.) Poor thing got broken right in cutting access panels into ceramic tile and is still covered in white dust.

I grabbed it because I have had my drill and driver combo for awhile so I just used their 1.5 Ah batteries. It ate those batteries fast, I got about a panel (8" x 8") per battery. This leads me into my next excuse of buying something else. My thoughts are maybe just the 4 pack of 1.5 Ah batteries from Tool Up, or maybe the impact wrench with a bigger battery, I wish they had a kit with 2 batteries. I hate having them out numbered.

What say the Milwaukee addicts?

Really need a XC 3.0, 4.0, 5.0 with the Multi Tool.

The 2763/2663 1/2 Impacts come in kits with 2 batteries as does the 2754/2654/2651/2658 3/8 Impacts. The 2754 has two 2 batteries kit options, with Compact 2.0 or XC 5.0.

Wont find single tool kits often at HD. Kits with -21 are one battery, -22 two batteries, and -22CP are two compact batteries. Example 2754-22.

At the bare minimum would buy a two pack of XC and skip over the 1.5

But you also didn't say what impact wrench you were considering


2754/55/55b -22 Fuel kits still have the free 5.0AH battery promo,

Also the 2762/63/64 -22 kits

And some other Fuel tool including -21's grinders can get with an xtra battery

Toolup, ACME, Ohio Power Tool, or CPO all offer that deal some add it to your cart automatically but with Toolup YOU have to enter the promo code at checkout or you wont get it

I wonder why Milwaukee reversed the design on the switches that determine drill speed on the M12 line and the M18 line.

The M12 line goes forward for high speed, but on the M18 line it goes back for high speed.

This is great info, thanks dacan & DFB. I know the numbers between the 3/8 & 1/2 impact, are they pretty accurate? Leaning towards 1/2" so I can pop lug nuts.

If only the porta-band weren't a little rich for my blood...

So I couldn't help myself... went to a different HD that doesn't stock almost ALL the Milwaukee stuff like my local one does, and of course this store had the m12 spot light, and the new m12 rover light.. 2 of the 3 lights my local store doesn't stock now.. I walked out with the m12 spot light, and it's pretty impressive..

Finally heard from the vendor I keep bribing at work. He's been on the lamb for weeks and nobody's heard from him.. Apparently he told my boss "tell your guy I have a lot of **** for him and he's gonna be happy" - lol

IF ( and that's a BIG if) he shows up with everything I've given him to repair, (that I creatively "found" at work), AND brings what I've asked him to get for me/us at work, here's the list.. not all Milwaukee, but some..

2 hydraulic jackhammers - 1 Stanley, 1 greenlee, both 45 pound class
1 old Stanley hydraulic chainsaw
1 dual head Pelican cordless led remote area lighting system
2 single head Pelican cordless led remote area light systems
3 Milwaukee M18 search lights
1 M18 6 bay sequential charger
6 5.0 M18 batteries
About a dozen Milwaukee demo gloves
3 or 4 5000 lumen Led flood light tripods from Larson Electronics

Not bad for a $35 bottle of gin huh?

When Milwaukee releases their new m18 fuel 3" underground cable cutter, I will be buying more gin....

All I know is guys at work better start taking care of some of this ****.. it won't go over well if one of the idiots runs over a $1,700 lighting system..

I am starting to "consider" trying to replace all my 20v Dewalt stuff that I have on one work truck, over to Milwaukee too.. it seems like I'm always grabbing something red to take with me, even though I have a yellow one that's already on the truck. Even though they are about the same power, I don't enjoy using the big Dewalt impact.

Picked these up today....just could not help myself any longer. At $249 each with the 9.0 batteries, seems like a good deal.

I want a rocket light/charger and the 9.0s seem to be the perfect fit.

I bought the Sawzall + 9.0 for my Girlfriend's dad for his birthday a few weeks ago and her whole family loves it. They've been putting up a ton of fencing on her sister's mini farm and they used it to trim all the posts and I guess it just rips right on through.

Good to hear. This will be used around the house / property here and at my parent's. It sure will be nice not having to pull out a cord every time I want to make a couple of cuts.
