We received word about two special M18 Fuel brushless cordless tool combo promos that Home Depot is running right now. Thanks to Andrew and Tim for the tips!
Now, and for a limited time of unknown duration, buy the Milwaukee M18 2797-22 combo, which comes with their Fuel brushless hammer drill, Fuel brushless impact driver, a multi-voltage charger, (2) 4.0Ah XC Li-ion battery packs, and a carrying case, and you get your choice of a free 4.0Ah battery pack or Sawzall reciprocating saw (brushed motor).

Both special combos are priced at $399, which is how much the regular combo typically sells for.
Did you notice that I wrote Fuel brushless when describing the tools in the combo? Previously, just Fuel or brushless was enough. But now, Milwaukee has a couple of compact M18 brushless tools coming down the pipeline. Those new brushless tools aren’t as premiumly featured as the Fuel tools, thus requiring a distinction between Fuel brushless and brushless offerings.
I could have just said Fuel instead of Fuel brushless, but there are a lot of users who haven’t yet been made aware that Milwaukee’s M12 and M18 Fuel cordless tools are equipped with brushless motors.

Home Depot has had that bonus battery or sawzall kit available for about 3 weeks now.

They’ve had this one as well . . . non Fuel, non brushless kit.

Also, if you search their website using “milwaukee free”, there is a bunch of M12 free deals.

Those M12 and what I called “bonus” M18 deals, because there were only a few, were mentioned not too long ago:
https://14cyiuhvcgv.com/milwaukee-m12-fuel-tool-kit-freebie-deal-020215/%3C/a%3E%3C/p%3E
That deal post went up Feb 25th, which was a little more than 2 weeks ago, and at the time I did not see these special M18 Fuel combos.

Interesting thing about those is that for a day (Feb 1), they were up there along with the 150.00 off promo. So you could order a Milwaukee, DeWalt or Makita “big kit”, the M12 kit (with free tool) and spread the discount.
And technically could return the big kit for refund, leaving the partial discount on the M12 kit and free tool. A M12 Fuel hackzall kit + free ratchet came out to $147.00

I was one of those people that has no idea that Milwaukee “FUEL” was brushless. I was a Makita guy and thought that they were the only ones for a while with brushless equipment but after tasting the red koolaid(Milwaukee) I must say it’s pretty good.

I am pretty certain this is in store as well. if you have any Dutch in you, you can save 10% by way of coupon (HD or Lowes) or military discount in store.

I bought both the hammerdrill and impact driver kits separately before a combined kit was available, and am extremely happy with both; especially since I started using impact-rated space bits (Bosch Daredevil) with the impact driver. It makes working in an attic much easier when footing and balance can be an issue.
Of I didn’t already have both I would jump on this deal.

I got one from Internationaltool.com a few weeks ago. They have been running $25 off any Milwaukee purchase for a while now so I got it for $370 and change which was the best price I found. Enter discount code mil$25 . Not sure if this is ongoing for the month or they just forgot to take it down but it’s currently working still. Just picked up another M12 kit with free bare tool and got the $25 off again…

Sadly my Milwaukee NiCad 18v set is still going strong and does everything I’ve ever thrown at it so I can’t quite make the hurdle to drop another $400 that would still leave me without a 6-1/2″ circular saw.

I took advantage of the deals at christmas. Nothing for me here.

Yes, they have it over at International Tool… the Impact/Hammer drill 18v Fuel Kit with free Sawzall for $379
steve
If you get the free battery, and then find you have nowhere to put it, you can do what I did, and cut a hole large enough in the plastic near the “document holder” to fit the battery:

Home Depot is now offering the fuel combo deal except they are now including the newer sawzall 2621-20 instead of the older 2620-20 model.
