Acme Tools Black Friday Remix: Power Tool Deals Worth Grabbing Right Now

Introduction

Big-box stores have pulled back on deals lately, but Acme Tools is running a Black Friday remix event that brings back some standout discounts and introduces a few new ones. We went through the list and picked out the offers that genuinely make sense, from full cordless kits to specialty tools and one hole saw set that is hard to find in stores anywhere.

Evaluation Criteria

We focused on three things: whether the price is actually competitive for the kit contents, whether the tool has a strong reputation, and whether the deal suits a specific kind of buyer. Brands with shaky review histories were skipped entirely.

DeWalt 20V Max Power Detect Circular Saw Kit

At $250, this kit includes the Power Detect circular saw, a large-capacity battery, and a rapid charger. For a cordless circular saw kit from a major brand, that price is hard to argue with, and the rapid charger adds real convenience if you are working all day.

Milwaukee M18 Mid-Torque Impact Wrench Kit

A similar mid-torque kit sold out extremely fast at $199 with a single battery and no case at a big-box retailer. This Acme Tools option costs about $100 more but is a meaningfully better package: a hard case, two 5 amp hour batteries, the mid-torque wrench, and the charger.

If you missed the cheaper single-battery version, this is the closest equivalent deal and arguably a smarter buy for anyone who runs batteries down quickly.

DeWalt 12V Impact Driver Kit

The DeWalt 12V impact driver kit at $99 is one of the easiest recommendations here. It is compact, lightweight, and genuinely capable. If you only need one solid driver, this is a great entry point. If you want more, spending roughly twice as much gets you a drill and a free tool instead, but as a standalone deal this is excellent.

Milwaukee M12 23-Gauge Pin Nailer Kit

There have been other pin nailer deals floating around, but at $230 for the full kit, currently in stock and ready to ship, this is a solid way to get into the M12 system. Pin nailers are ideal for delicate trim work where a brad nailer would leave too visible a hole.

Milwaukee M12 3/8” Crown Stapler Kit

This one has a strong reputation, and at $99 for the kit it is a deal worth acting on. Crown staplers handle upholstery, insulation, and light fastening tasks that other tools handle poorly, and this is among the better prices we have seen on it.

Milwaukee Packout Tech Bag

The Packout Tech bag is down to about $80. Even better, once your order crosses roughly the $150 mark, an additional $40 comes off. Buying two bags is a practical way to hit that threshold and get both for significantly less than usual.

Diablo 9-Piece Hole Saw Kit

Priced around $70, this general-purpose nine-piece hole saw kit is something we have not seen on store shelves. Everything we have tried from Diablo has set the bar for cutting speed and durability, so a kit at this price from this brand is an easy call.

Diablo 13-Piece Plumber’s Hole Saw Set

The larger 13-piece plumber’s set costs a bit more but adds the bigger hole saw sizes plumbers and mechanical trades actually need. It shares the same quality story as the nine-piece kit, and it is another item that is frustratingly rare in physical stores.

Milwaukee M18 Multi-Tool Kit

This M18 multi-tool kit comes with a 2 amp hour battery and undercuts the comparable DeWalt kit by about $30, and Milwaukee’s warranty is longer as well. The DeWalt is arguably the nicer tool with better ergonomics and a tool-free blade change that is genuinely fast, though we have seen those mechanisms fail before. Both tools are very good and very price competitive right now, so the smartest move is to pick whichever brand system you already own.

Makita 8-Piece Combo Kit

The Makita 8-piece combo kit lands at $389, essentially $400 for a huge starter set. It includes a mini blower, an impact wrench, an impact driver, a sander, a circular saw, and two 3 amp hour batteries. If you are planning to get into the Makita 18V platform, this is a very efficient way to start.

Overall Buying Advice

If you already own batteries on a platform, prioritize the bare-tool-friendly deals like the DeWalt 12V impact or the crown stapler. If you are starting fresh, the Makita combo kit and the DeWalt circular saw kit offer the most tool for the money. Specialty users should not sleep on the Diablo hole saw sets, which are hard to source in stores at any price.

Conclusion

This Black Friday remix event delivers genuinely useful discounts across DeWalt, Milwaukee, Makita, and Diablo, with kits that bundle batteries, chargers, and cases rather than leaving you to buy accessories separately. Match the deal to the tools you will actually use and these prices hold up well.
