Black Friday and Cyber Monday have arrived, unleashing a wave of opportunities to equip your home and tackle those long-awaited projects. Forget endlessly searching – incredible savings are happening now on the tools and equipment you need to build, repair, and create.
I recently found myself wrestling with a stubbornly bolted-in piece of furniture, relying on my trusty (and admittedly adorable) pink drill. It proved that even a compact tool can deliver serious power. Whether you’re a seasoned DIY enthusiast or just starting out, a reliable drill is essential. And right now, deals are making them more accessible than ever.
My own pink drill set, complete with hammer, screwdrivers, and more, is currently available for just $30 – a significant discount from the $50 I paid. For those demanding heavier duty performance, the Milwaukee 18-volt cordless drill set is half-price at $99, including battery and charger. A quality battery is a game-changer, and this set delivers exceptional value.
Need to drive fasteners with extra force? The Milwaukee 18-volt cordless impact driver set is also on sale for $99. It’s the perfect companion to a Milwaukee drill, effortlessly powering through tougher materials. And for a comprehensive starter kit, the Ryobi 18-volt cordless drill set with *three* batteries is available for $148.97 – a 44% discount. Having multiple batteries ensures you’ll never be caught mid-project.
I recently learned the hard way that hand saws are…challenging. Twenty minutes of manual labor on a single shelf was enough to convince me a cordless saw is a worthwhile investment. The Ryobi 18-volt cordless 7 ¼-inch compound miter saw is on sale for $159, offering the flexibility of cordless cutting for trim and woodworking.
For versatile cutting and shaping, consider the Milwaukee 18-volt oscillating multitool set, currently $99. It’s a powerful tool for a variety of tasks, from cutting pipe to sanding surfaces. And for a surprisingly useful addition to your toolkit, a mini chainsaw from Greenworks is available for $85 – perfect for small pruning jobs or even household projects.
If you’re looking to build a complete workshop, combo tool sets offer incredible value. The Milwaukee 18-volt seven-tool combo set is 50% off at $500, including a drill, saw, reciprocating saw, and more. It’s a comprehensive kit suitable for both beginners and experienced DIYers. Alternatively, the DeWalt three-tool combo set is available for $399, providing a solid foundation for most home maintenance projects.
This year, major retailers like Amazon, Walmart, Target, Best Buy, and Home Depot are fiercely competing for shoppers, meaning widespread discounts are available. The best deals depend on your specific needs, but these are the places to start your search.
Black Friday still delivers rare discounts on the items you need, especially in tech and home improvement. If you’ve been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tools or tackle a project, now is the time. But remember, the best savings come from mindful spending – only buy what you truly need.
The lines between Black Friday and Cyber Monday have blurred. Both days offer significant savings, so focus on identifying the items you want, utilizing price trackers, and avoiding the pressure of finding the absolute “perfect” timing.
