That’s a GREAT deal. I had noticed those on the way down in price and so far the cheapest around here is $119

The kit doesn't seem to be shown in inventory, but there were about 7 of them in the clearance rack. Pretty sure it was this product:
i went to HD today and no $99 deal on the dewalts… :’(
I don’t think that is the set, being white they are the “homeowners” set. I could be wrong, but I thought they were the green set.
I wasn’t paying too much attention.
BTW, I have that white set in the 12V configuration. I also have the 12V Ridgid. The Makita is the set I use the most.
They are nice a light weight, and for light duty work they are perfect.
For even smaller jobs, I use this 3.7V Li-Ion STP driver.
A couple of years ago, they went on clearance, and then came back. Back then I scored 3 at the strange price of $19.00
Awesome power for a portable vacuum, but they put an incredible demand on a battery pack. I ruined a 2.0Ah pack with it. Now I only use it with the 4Ah packs, they can push twice the Amps.
This I don’t understand, you said they are $14.04 where you are. Here they are $75.06, originally $99.97
But it scans for $75.06
Speaking of Bosch, I have a Bosch jig saw and it takes the “T” blades.
I also have an older Ryobi 18V jig saw and it takes the “U” blades. It seems all the Bosch branded “U” blades will ring up for a penny, IF you can find them.
This one I found by accident at the bottom of a display. It is missing a blade and when I noticed there were NO “U” blades hanging up above I suspected this was old clearance stock that had been over looked. I was right, it went for a penny.
Since then I have found 2 other packs in other stores. This Bosch display is right next to the Diablo router bits.
If it helps, here is the SKU
I checked a store in North Huntsville, AL and they don’t stock them
BUT you can order online and they will ship to your store for FREE.
The glm 40 is at 04 price not the glm40x
Thank you, didn’t think about the online ordering…
This isn’t Home Depot—-Still a great deal though
A pelican type Case (pistol—cameras—flashlights) Members Mark from SAMS CLUB 20 x 16 x 7 $35
A really nice case for the money
ImA4,
I think I found 1 of those Makita combo packs you were talking about, and yes it is the White home owners set.
I found this in an overhead, almost hidden from view? I zoomed in for this shot, #1000-055-718
It was the only one in the store and of course with no price. I asked one of the associates to look it up for me, giving him the SKU#
Notice at the top of the screen that there is no home and there are 8 on hand. Where the other 7 are, is anybodies guess. I bet they go to your $85.00 any day now.
Also I found a couple more of the Bosch “U” shank jig saw blades, they were mixed in with the stock of “T” shanks
And CRANK,
for the first time I noticed those Ridgid 18V vacuums are on clearance again.

Darn dcho, crazy attention to detail. How the heck you figured out the U-shanks would be a penny is beyond me, but I'll be swinging by a HD on the way to work tomorrow if the crazy post Irma traffic allows me.
I did end up picking up that Makita combo. It may be for homeowners, but it's pretty sweet. Both the drill and impact feel great in hand and seem quite powerful. Surely, not going to be Dewalt durable, but should be fine for light duty work.
That Makita set is the best deal on a drill and driver combo I have ever seen. I have seen Ryobi at $99, but they only came with 1.3Ah batteries. Yours come with 2.0Ah, AND Makita beats Ryobi anyway.
Can you verify the SKU number? Is that set I posted the one at $85?

Could we do with fewer google drive links, postimage is free and can be shown in posts
Yes, the number you zoomed into and reported matches:
Thanks for the heads up on this one. They were $119.00, but just today went to an even $85. I grabbed 3 for friends, but when HD heard what the price had gone to, all 8 were gone in an instant. No one at HD knew where they were, not the price.
Here are the scans from 2 days ago and then today.
Here is the UPC in case anybody want to test their store for price
Where they were in an overhead
I must say, I was a little disturbed that the batteries came inserted into the tool straight out of the box. That usually isn’t done.
All appeared dead, but did charge right up. Maybe Makita has a way of shipping batteries “turned off” until they first see a charger.
I never store my battery inserted into a tool for fear of leakage and a resulting fatal discharge.
Oh, the other 7 were behind to one if view.

It's unusual for a discount to start at the HD's I visit before they start at your stores. It's nice return a favor for the hundreds the alerts you have provided us. Nice job on finding them in advance (Post 2341). Finder power still working like a charm.
I think your friends will like those units. Mine also had the packs on the drill and impact driver. I didn't think anything of it as I have always kept mine that way. I like the active cooling in the charger, but I wish there was a switch to turn off rapid charging.
i don’t understand what you mean by ‘when HD heard the price’ and “not the price”
