Just got back from Home Depot and got an awesome deal :)

I just picked up a 5 piece Ridgid 18volt cordless set for $299 (Reg $499... $404 on their website)

Set includes:

• Hammer Drill
• Impact Driver
• Recip Saw
• Circ Saw
• Light
• 2 Batteries @ 2.5amp hrs
• 30 minute charger that can charge 2 batteries at once

PLUS there is a mail-in offer (on their website) to get 1 additional tools for free: Jig Saw, Hand planer or Caulk Gun. (So 6 tools for $299)

PLUS their lifetime service agreement covers batteries for life! (Yeah... no more dead batteries!)

If you go to their website search for "Model R9223"

Here is review I found FYI... http://benchmark.20m.com/reviews/RidgidCordlessCombo/RidgidCordlessCombo.html
(NOTE: The kit reviewed included 3 batteries... The one for $299 has 2)


The guy at Home Depot said they are changing their cordless combo kits and are dumping this 5 piece set... so you may have to hunt around for this set for $299.

YMMV

Bart,

Where did you see this this set for $250???

I just looked in the HD flyer for TDay sales and didn't see this set.

Thanks!

I talked to the tool crib manager here in my local store.

I'm pretty sure that HD gives 30 day price protection. So, Joseph, if you saved your receipt, bring it in and get $49 back.

Hey, can someone provide us with an area or the town where the Home Depots have the R9223 on close out. Everywhere I have checked they are still $449. I am in Missouri. I even called some stores in Wisconsin and Washington. I live in Missouri, and the 2 different 4 piece combo sets are on sale, but not the 5 piece. Anyone willing to share some information, it would be appreciated.

I was at the HD in my area So Cal and the units they had were two tools for $249.00, hammer drill and jigsaw, or saw and hammer drill or the jigsaw and saw...

I got mine @ the HD in Milwaukee on 27th st. When I bought mine (on 11/22) the guy said he had 2 left.

Hope this helps...

Joe, thanks for the info. I just called that Home Depot , price is $449. I am wandering if you hit a one day sale. If you did, it was a good find. At my local Home Depot, they have the 18v 4 piece on sale for $299 and the 4 piece 24v on sale for $397, but the 5 piece is still $449, but I think it is now on sale online for $404.

I just made a trip to HD to get some supplies for my chip barrel lid, and took a peek at the cordless. They only had the 4 piece and it was $299.00. No 5 piece at all. Wondering if they are trying to get rid of the 4 piece first, then do the 5 piece? Don't need one anyway, just curious. Jim.

FYI... I called the HD in Franklin, WI (414-304-1024) where I got mine for $299... They sold the last one today.

I called the HD in Lake Geneva, WI (262-248-6297) and they had 1 left for $440 but said he might match the $299 if he could verify the price.

The model # is R9223

Hope this helps!
