I saw a couple things in the flyer but nothing worth hitting the store before work over.

If that's the white model with the small battery that's a decent deal. If it is the big battery version it is a smokin' deal, even for Homer rated tools.

We have a 125hp motor to change out in an airhandler at a supermarket, then home. I saw the black Friday ad for the depot and didn't see anything exciting. Now the wife saw a fancy washer/dryer set at Lowes she wants to get in the am.

I have to double check I am pretty sure it was the big battery packs.

I doubt it for $200. The kits with the bigger batteries are usually around $400.

This one is the big battery version. $320 is an awesome deal!

The deal is for a 2 speed hammer drill not 3 speed as in your link. I think I paid close to $300 for just the three speed drill so $320 is an excellent deal, Aside from the fact I had to repair it twice in 1.5 years.

That's the set I have, I think I paid $350 + S/H for it. Been a real good pick-up!

Even at double time for holidays, my family time is worth more than that.

Today at HD they had a backpack blower on sale for $99, I picked up one of those. I live half way in the woods so leaves are a big problem for me this time of year. With the hand held blower after 2 hours my arm and elbow hurts like hell. For the money the backpack blower kicks butt.

At the Black and Decker store they had all of their VPX tools on a killer sale. I've wanted the handi-saw for a long time now but didn't want to pay the $39.99 for the regular one or the $59.99 for the VPX model. The VPX was on sale for $14.97 today! So I got that and a drill-driver for my wife for her household tools (device plates and hanging pictures and decorating stuff). They also had a cool usb charger/ac power supply thing for $5 so that was a steal of a deal.

Bass Pro Shops had some good deals on clothes.

Other than that I didn't really see much that was all that great of a deal this year.

Anybody pick up on some good deals?
