Home Depot has kicked off its Black Friday deals early this year, offering customers a lengthy sales period that runs from November 5 through December 3. This extended event breaks the traditional single-day Black Friday model, giving shoppers nearly a full month to take advantage of significant discounts on a wide range of products, particularly in the home improvement and power tool categories. The deals feature major brands like Milwaukee, Ryobi, Dewalt, Makita, and Ridgid, with offers ranging from buy-one-get-one (BOGO) free promotions to discounts of up to 60 percent off.
One of the standout deals comes from Dewalt, a well-known name in power tools. Currently, Dewalt is offering a BOGO promotion on select tools, allowing customers to buy one tool and receive another for free from a curated selection. This includes popular outdoor tools such as the 13-Inch Cordless String Trimmer priced at $139, the 20V Cordless Leaf Blower for $179, the 20V MAX XR Cordless Brushless Jigsaw at $239, and the 20V MAX Cordless Brushless Circular Saw for $229. Navigating these deals on Home Depot’s website can be a bit confusing, but the essential takeaway is that shoppers can mix and match among these items to maximize their savings.
Beyond the BOGO offer, Dewalt also has deals where customers get a free tool with the purchase of a battery or a free battery with the purchase of a tool. For those looking to upgrade their toolkits, many Dewalt products are discounted between 20 and 50 percent throughout the sale period. While these percentage discounts may not be the steepest available, they still offer substantial savings on high-quality, reliable tools. For instance, WIRED recommends Dewalt’s popular drill and driver kit, which is currently $50 off—a good deal for anyone needing a dependable, versatile set.
Milwaukee Tools, another top-tier brand, is also heavily featured in Home Depot’s Black Friday sales. Milwaukee fans, including WIRED’s reviewer Scott Gilbertson, praise the brand for its robust battery technology and extensive tool ecosystem. Gilbertson personally owns numerous Milwaukee tools, ranging from impact guns to circular saws and drywall screw guns, underscoring the brand’s reputation for durability and performance. During the sale, Milwaukee is offering a BOGO deal on select tools like the M18 Fuel Brushless Cordless Hex Impact Driver priced at $179. The promotion also includes other tools such as the brushless cordless grinder ($229) and the cordless personal inflator ($199). Additionally, customers can find deals where batteries come free with certain tool purchases or vice versa, making it an excellent time to invest in Milwaukee’s ecosystem if you haven’t already.
For shoppers invested in other tool ecosystems, Makita is another brand offering compelling deals. WIRED reviewers Julian Chokkattu and Pete Cottell both prefer Makita’s range of tools, and for good reason. Makita’s current Black Friday promotion is also a BOGO deal, where the purchase of one tool allows customers to choose either a free battery pack or another tool from a selection of items around the $200 price range. This kind of flexibility helps users expand their Makita collection while getting great value. Similarly, Ryobi and Ridgid are participating in the sales event with competitive offers tailored to their product lines.
Ridgid, for example, is offering bundles that include tools and batteries at discounts as high as 60 percent. Noteworthy is a cordless blower deal combined with a battery starter kit, which comes at more than half off the regular price. These deals make it easier and more affordable to start or expand a cordless tool collection, especially for those who value convenience and portability in their home improvement projects.
Aside from power tools and hardware, Home Depot’s Black Friday sale also extends to holiday essentials like Christmas trees. For many, the annual tradition of picking out and hauling home a Christmas tree can be a mixed experience—exciting yet physically demanding. To ease this hassle, Home Depot is offering free delivery on Christmas trees during the Black Friday sale. This includes both artificial trees, which are already popular and well-stocked, and fresh-cut fir trees that are arriving online. Customers can browse and order their preferred option and have it delivered directly to their doorstep at no extra charge, eliminating the need for any heavy lifting or truck loading. For those considering artificial options, WIRED has also published expert-tested roundups to help
