There are always Black Friday deals on shop vacuums, and we found a couple of deals on accessories, mainly nozzles and cleaning attachments.
A reader asked “where are the sales on hoses and accessories?” There’s never very much, but I’ll share what I found so far.
Home Depot has a couple of Milwaukee AirTip nozzles and attachments on sale. Here they are:

- AirTip Long Reach Flexible Hose Set – $29.97
- AirTip 3pc Nozzle Set – $29.97
- AirTip Cross-Shaped Brush Tool – $9.97
- AirTip Flexible Long Reach Crevice Tool – $14.97
- AirTip Utility Nozzle with Brushes – $14.97
- AirTip Pivoting Extension Wand – $14.97
- AirTip Rotating Corner Brush Tool – $14.97
- AirTip Rocking Utility Nozzle Attachment – $14.97
- AirTip 2-in-1 Utility Nozzle with Brush – $14.97
- AirTip 3-in-1 Crevice Tool with Brushes – $9.97 (online price is higher)
My picks would be the long reach flex hose set, 3pc nozzle set, and pivoting extension wand.
Ridgid Car Cleaning Kit – $29.97 at Home Depot
This kit comes with a 10-foot “premium” hose, hose-to-hose coupler, soft bristle brush, stiff bristle brush, flexible crevice tool, claw nozzle, and an adapter that lets these 1-1/4″ attachments work with 2-1/2″ hoses.
I bought this set – or one very much like it – a few years ago, and it’s held up well. I have used it on all kinds of things, except maybe not my car yet.
Granted it’s a small diameter hose, but it’s long and the nozzles and brushes are useful for smaller cleaning tasks than the larger ones that ship with most wet/dry shop vacuums.
I’m not saying you should run out and buy this, or the Milwaukee AirTip nozzles – most of which I really like and have been using since Milwaukee sent me a sample set. A reader asked about shop vac nozzles and hoses being on sale for Black Friday, and this is about it.

If you shop carefully, some retailers have Black Friday or Cyber Monday coupon codes, discounted gift card offers, and buy more, save more deals that can apply to vacuum and dust extractor accessories.
But when it comes to sales focused on hoses, nozzles, attachments, and similar, this is about it for the 2024 holiday deals season.

That M18 vac for $99 is a tempting buy for me

It’s a nice vacuum and the pack out version for twice as much really isn’t all that worth it for around the house.
I have both and still use whichever is closer.
Kevin
I bought the M18 pack out version but only because the TTI rep at HD threw in 2 free 5ah batteries and a charger. Works well for me on the job site but without those incentives I don’t think it would have been worth it.
Noah
I’ve never seen a Milwaukee rep while shopping at home Depot. Is this something that just randomly happens? Is it just a guy standing around giving away free tools to people who buy Milwaukee stuff,?

Bought several Milwaukee vacuum accessories, at Ace last weekend …and avg savings of 25%,cheaper than HD.
Rob
I wound up with the Pack Out version when it came out. Very happy with it even though the bags are only available at HD online. I have purchased a bunch of Air Tip accessories and ultimately have decided I hate most of them. None of them really work that well. I do find the long reach nozzle useful.

If you own a Ridgid Vac, you NEED that car detailing kit. It’s worth it for the long, flexible, non-marring hose alone. All of the attachments are useful and have a premium feel. If I ever need to suck up big stuff I just unscrew the black male end off of the orange hose (it unscrews clockwise) and use the open hose end itself.
Katie
I got that hose years ago. It’s my favorite hose, flexible and nice and long. More manageable than any other hose that is too short or you have to fight with. I have plenty of smaller attachments that fit.

Could anyone recommend a flexible and durable 2 1/2 inch hose-wand-and-floor-nozzle accessory set with a handle and nice swivels? Are there some favorites out there?

Hi Stuart. Just a quick FYI.
Your link for the “AirTip 3-in-1 Crevice Tool with Brushes – $9.97 (online price is higher)” (the last link in the list of Milwaukee air-tip accessories on sale/special buy) points to the wrong item.
The current link points to:
Model # 49-90-2028
AIR-TIP 1-1/4 in. – 2-1/2 in. 2-IN-1 Utility Brush Power Tool Attachment for Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum (1-Piece)
The link should point to the following item:
Model # 49-90-2023
AIR-TIP 1-1/4 in. – 2-1/2 in. 3-IN-1 Crevice & Brush Tool Wet/Dry Shop Vacuum Attachment (1-Piece)
PS – Thanks for noticing and mentioning that the 3-in-1 tool was less expensive in store. I just grabbed one today for $10 which is a nice discount!
Stuart
Thank you! *fixed it*
You’re welcome! Luckily online and in-store prices typically match up, but curiously in this case it didn’t. Most of the other SKUs are the same price in-store and online.
It could be that the in-store sale isn’t actually supposed to have started yet, but that doesn’t make sense since the other accessories are already at their special buy pricing.
