Holiday Tool Deals.
With the holiday sale season approaching I was thinking maybe it would be good to have a thread dedicated to posting any links or info on any good deals on tools and such.....post away!

Just to give you guys a heads up, Home Depot is clearancing out all of their conduit fittings above 2" by me. Prices range from 25% to 50% off around here. Some stores had it on the floor, others have it in the overhead. If you use > 2" PVC and happen to swing by a store, I'd check it out.

They way HD typically prices the big pipe stuff, 25-50% off will still not get me near what I pay at the supply house.

Fair enough. Didn't know how their prices were since we typically don't use > 2" SCH80 PVC or > 2.5" RMC. Just saw the little label which had the old and new prices.

Thats the truth.
I had a customer come in to our shop looking for a large radius 2"pvc ell. Homedepot wanted $28.99. After I put our mark-up on it, it only cost the customer $13

Saw that Home Depot has their Black Friday ad posted. Did see some things that I would definately be trying to get. For example:
Makita 18-Volt Hammer Driver Drill & Impact Driver Combo Kit w/Bit Set - $199.00
Makes me wonder if that is Lithium Ion or not. Don't know if they even have one that isn't.

The Black and White Makita is indeed Lithium Ion. It uses the compact batteries that charge in 15 minutes. I do not believe you can use the full size batteries with them.
That said, it's a great kit. Really lightweight, tons of power, and good ergonomics. I picked up that set originally for $130 before I got the Makita LXT407.
The only thing that throws me for a loop is the fact that they're listing it as a Hammer Drill when I currently don't see a 2 piece LCT Hammer Drill and Impact Combo. Only the Compact and Impact combo. Maybe it's a new kit from Makita?

You can look at a PDF of the Black Friday Ad and it shows the white kit listed as a hammer drill.
Also might pick up the Stanley 4 pack of tapes and the Dewalt bits to have around. The $20 shop vac is worth it for me just to get the spare filter.
Lowes has a 100 piece Dewalt bit set for $20 that looks to be a decent deal, along with the $28 Dremel 200 as a spare. Also a big fan of the Stanley Tripod light for $8.
To view the Black Friday ads:

Click on the store ad you want to see.
You should be able to view the PDF containing the ad in the first post.
