Milwaukee deals + new screwdriver
Home Depot’s spring event is running big cordless tool deals — select Milwaukee tool purchases include a free 18V high‑capacity battery, and Milwaukee is launching an insulated flip‑shank multi‑bit screwdriver in April 2026 aimed at safer, faster electrical work. These offers and the new insulated hand tool are a timely upgrade window for pros looking to cut jobsite time and increase safety (mashable.com) (lifehacker.com) (slashgear.com).
Home Depot’s Spring Starts/sale window for tool deals is running through April 1, 2026, according to current retailer listings. (nbcnews.com) A Milwaukee 18V six‑amp‑hour battery two‑pack is listed at $299 (regularly $439), and Home Depot’s “free gift with purchase” menu can be used to add a third 6Ah battery so the cart applies discounts that reach roughly 53% off on some bundles. (lifehacker.com) Home Depot’s spring event also attaches free‑gift choices to higher‑priced Milwaukee bundles — for example, a Milwaukee 18V random orbital sander is shown at $229 and can be paired with a free 6Ah battery for about a 46% savings, while larger M18 starter kits at around $679 list free accessory options (hedge trimmer, blower, trimmer or edger) with reported values up to roughly $399. (lifehacker.com) Milwaukee’s Insulated 2‑in‑1 Flip‑Shank Multi‑Bit Screwdriver is being retailed at $22.99, is listed as SKU 48‑22‑2201, and appears for pre‑order on several tool sites with some retailers showing an estimated ship date of April 21, 2026. (slashgear.com) The new screwdriver is UL‑classified and carries 1000‑volt insulation certified to IEC 60900 and ASTM F1505 standards, includes a #2 Phillips and 1/4" slotted bit on a quick‑change flip shank, features a slim tip, anti‑peel cushion grip and lanyard hole, and is backed by Milwaukee’s Limited Lifetime Warranty.
