Four Standout Tool Deals: Miter Saw, Jigsaw, Planer, and a Circular Saw Kit

A DeWalt 12-inch miter saw, two Bosch corded tools, and a Flex rear-handle circular saw kit all received significant markdowns worth a closer look.

Introduction

Big-box tool retailers rotate their markdowns constantly, and a handful of current clearance prices genuinely stand out. This roundup covers four tools that saw notable price drops: a DeWalt 12-inch compound miter saw, a Bosch corded jigsaw, a Bosch corded planer, and a Flex rear-handle circular saw kit that includes a Stack Lithium battery. Each fills a different role in a workshop, so the right pick depends on what your projects actually need.

DeWalt 12-Inch Compound Miter Saw

The DeWalt 12-inch compound miter saw has been marked down from around $600 to about $400, a substantial cut on a full-size saw that normally holds its price. It is the kind of crosscut and angle-cut workhorse that suits trim, framing, and general building projects, and at this price it becomes far easier to justify for a home shop.

Stock has been limited at some locations, so it is worth checking availability before making the trip. If a 12-inch compound saw has been on your list, this is one of the stronger deals currently on the floor.

Bosch 6.5 Amp Corded Jigsaw

Bosch’s 6.5 amp corded jigsaw is on clearance from about $140 down to roughly $95, a saving of around $46. It ships with a hard case, which is a nice touch at this price point, and being corded means consistent power for longer cutting sessions without battery concerns.

For curved cuts, board trim work, and general project cutting, a jigsaw is one of the most versatile additions to a tool collection. At this clearance price, it is a practical buy for anyone setting up a shop on a budget.

Bosch Corded Planer

The Bosch corded planer has dropped from around $150 to about $109 as a clearance item. A hand planer is a niche but genuinely useful tool: squaring up rough lumber, trimming doors, and shaving edges flush all become quick jobs compared to doing them by hand.

If you have been waiting on a corded planer, this lower price makes it a reasonable time to pick one up rather than paying full retail.

Flex Rear-Handle Circular Saw Kit with Stack Lithium Battery

One of the more eye-catching markdowns is the Flex rear-handle circular saw kit, which includes a Stack Lithium battery and has been cut from around $400 to roughly $205.87. That is close to half price on a kit rather than a bare tool, and a battery alone represents a meaningful share of that value.

The catch is availability: this is a clearance deal that may not appear at every store. If your local retailer has it in stock, it is worth checking out quickly, because clearance items like this tend to move fast once word spreads.

Buying Advice

Match the tool to your actual projects. If you cut a lot of lumber to length, the DeWalt miter saw is the clear priority. For curved and detail cutting, the Bosch jigsaw at $95 is hard to beat. The planer only makes sense if you work with rough or oversized stock. And if you want a full kit with a high-capacity battery included, the Flex circular saw deal offers the largest percentage saving, provided you can find it in stock.

Conclusion

All four of these tools received meaningful markdowns, and each suits a different workshop need. Verify local stock and pricing before heading out, since clearance availability varies by store, and act quickly on the Flex kit if it is still on the shelf near you.
