Home Depot

The doors to home depot will open at 6AM on Friday, November 27th.  With the slow economy, it looks like Home Depot is rolling out some pretty good deals to help jump start the holiday season, or as I like to think of it, a way to prepare me for future projects.  What this means guys, is that while your wife is lining up at the crack of dawn to get that deal over at some other store that will open 6 hours before sunrise. You can saunter out of bed at a fairly reasonable hour; make it over to your local Home Depot and still score. And guys, remember, it does not mater how much you spend, it maters how much you save. See, I have caught on to my wives way of doing it. "look honey, I saved us hundreds with the deals I got today…."

What we are trying to do for you is show you a preview to what we think are some of the best deals in the store for Black Friday.

Ridgid Wet/Dry VacFor starters, one of the best door busters we have seen so far is an amazing buy at only $19.88 for a 16 gallon Ridgid Wet/Dry Vac. Ridgid vacuums have been at the top of my list for this type of cleaning machines. From my experiences, you can’t kill them; I have used them for sucking up everything from drywall dust to removing muddy water from a foundation trench. I would suggest showing up early if you want to get one of these. Word has it that they are only available in pretty limited quantities. 

Rayovac Battery DealNever run out of AA batteries. Buy thirty on sale for only $9.99 and get thirty more for FREE! Repeat after me: “Free is good.” Having used a multitude of different brands of batteries, these blue and black Rayovac batteries really hold their own for performance and value. Think about all the flashlights and other noisy toys your kids will be getting this Christmas and how handy it would be to have a stock pile of these around.

 

Husky Tool BagTool storage is always an issue and having something that is compact yet holds a multitude of things is a must. Husky has a nifty tool bag that has 22 storage pockets and comes with a 12 compartment storage bin all for only $9.88. Sorry they tools don’t come with it!

DeWalt 72 Piece Bit BundleBits, bits and more bits. Actually 72 of them for only $14.97. This 72 piece DeWalt bit set comes with three handy clam shell storage cases that keep everything in order. The set includes, drill bits, hex driver bits and a host of different common size screwdriver bits.  Everyone needs more bits and we would definitely be sure to pick up one of these kits.

Dremel 300 Rotary Tool SetFor the hobby person on your list, the Dremel 300 Series with 25 included accessories for only $44.00 is definitely a must have. Dremel rotary tools are the way to go for any kind of detail work that includes carving and sanding. This tool also includes the new Detail Sanders, which we reviewed a short time ago. Check out the review here.

Ridgid One Hand SawTalk about handy, easy to use and good for over 101 different things is the Ridgid Fuego One Handed Reciprocating Saw. With great features like a quick change blade holder, LED work light and a super comfortable grip, this saw is one that everyone needs. The good news is that it is 30 dollars cheaper now then when it came out a few months ago. At $69.00 it is a great buy. Check out our review of it here.

Ryobi Tile SawIf you have an up coming tile job, then you need this saw. We first saw the Ryobi Tile Saw out at the International Builders Show back in January 2009. You can see our quick look review of here. Given the low sale price of only $99.00 including a diamond blade, stand and accessories, this is one worth grabbing. We are expecting limited quantities of this in the stores.

Dewalt 18V Compact Drill/DriverIt’s a common story, you have some DeWalt 18V tools and your batteries are toasted. Well, with this deal, you pretty much get two batteries for less then the normal asking price PLUS they throw in a free drill and charger. It’s a win for sure. The DeWalt 18V compact Drill/Drive Kit for only $99.00 is the way to go for your self or even as a gift. For us, this ranks among one of the best deals out there this Black Friday.

DeWalt 10" Table SawWhenever you can save $100 bucks on a tool, you are doing pretty good. The DeWalt 10" Portable Table Saw normally retails for around $399.00. That is not a bad deal in its self for a good job site table saw, but it is even sweeter now that it is only $299.00 for Black Friday. This saw is lightweight at only 45 pounds and comes with a carbide tipped 24 tooth rip blade. Also included with this saw is the new, safer blade guard that we are starting to see on more and more table saws.

Remember that Home Depot will open its doors at 6AM on Black Friday and from what we have seen in the past, the door busters go really fast so make sure it be there early if you are after any of them.
