Tools make a great gift for many different types of people: mechanics, weekend DIYers, new homeowners, hobbyists, etc. With the holidays fast approaching, online retailers are throwing up new deals every day. Below are some current online deals that can net you a good tool (or tool storage) present for a great price.
- Milwaukee 48-32-4502 Magnetic Bit Holder (Home Depot, $3.97)
Magnetic bit holders tend to be generic and unremarkable; they either work or they don't. This Milwaukee bit holder stands out, however. It has a slightly smaller footprint than many other bit holders (2.36" rather than 2.5") and the magnet is very strong. For a more detailed description, see my full review of this bit holder.
- Cat Premium Plastic Portable Tool Box with Lid Organization and Removable Tote (Amazon, $25.71)
This tough plastic toolbox measures 9.25" x 20" x 9" and includes everything you'd expect to find: removable plastic tote, removable small parts organizers in the lid, metal padlock eyes, and reinforced side walls. There's even a ruler imprinted onto the lid. This tool box gets a 4.6 out of 5 star rating on Amazon.
For a less expensive option, check out the Stanley 016011R Series 2000 16-Inch Tool Box. It's smaller (7.8" x 16" x 7") and not quite as tough, but it currently sells for $18.76 and it may drop lower. (It has been as low as $10.35 recently.)
- Ryobi 130-Piece Drill and Drive Bit Set (Home Depot, $9.88)
Probably too large for a stocking stuffer, this 130-piece bit set would make a great gift for anyone running low on drill or driver bits. The set includes Phillips, slotted, Torx, square, and hex bits. It also comes with a magnetic bit holder and a durable plastic case.
- Anvil 5-Piece Pliers Set (Home Depot, $4.88)
Anvil seems to be one of Home Depot's newer brands. The pliers in this set probably won't be the highest quality pliers ever seen, but at less than $1 per pair, it's hard to beat that price. This set would make a good gift for someone who needs some extra pliers to stow in the car or in a kitchen drawer for emergencies.
