Cyber Monday is now here and you can start shopping. Milwaukee, the popular tool maker you know and trust, is no stranger to the deals game, either. We’ve collected deals on popular Milwaukee tools — including the best and most essential tools — and accessories here. As you look, acknowledge two things. One, there are two separate battery lines, the M12 and the M18, so if you have some Milwaukee batteries, it pays to take a moment and check which ones you have before taking in all of the deals. Two, some of these deals come with batteries, and others are “Tool Only” deals, which can inevitably save you more money (and space) in the long run.
There are a lot of Cyber Monday deals taking place today, however, and if you’d like to see what else is going on, don’t miss the best Cyber Monday deals under $50 or the best Cyber Monday deals under $100.
Home Depot’s build your own Milwaukee M18 Bundle — $199 $397 50% off

This is, by far, one of the easiest ways to get started with Milwaukee and use a tool of your choice — plus, it’s 50% off.
Milwaukee M18 Cut Out Tool (Tool Only) — $96 $150 36% off

Milwaukee M12 Polisher (Tool Only) — $121 $253 52% off
Grab this and one of the best car waxes and get your car looking shiny and new or use one of the other pads that come with it (it comes with a polishing backing pad, sanding backing pad, wool pad, yellow foam pad, and white foam pad) to get whatever else needs doing done. Even better? It’s more than half off.
Milwaukee M12 Hammer Drill and Impact Driver Combo Kit — $197 $429 54% off

How to pick a Milwaukee tool for Cyber Monday
It might seem a bit dim-witted, but Milwaukee tools aren’t as simple as other battery-powered, cordless tool brands. They’re split into the M12 lines and M18 lines, which you’ll need to keep straight. While that’s the only thing you’ll have to remember, it can be a real bummer to come home with an M18 tool and find that you only have M12 batteries. (On that note, luckily, they have chargers that are capable of working with both battery styles.)
As is always the case with shopping for battery-powered power tools during the holidays, those batteries are a big deal. If you already have batteries (again, double-check if it is M12 or M18), then you might want to check out the increasingly popular ‘Tool Only’ deals that save you from buying a new battery with each purchase. However, Cyber Monday is also a great time to get a bundle at a discount and jumpstart your collection.
How we chose these Cyber Monday Milwaukee tool deals
Variety and price. These really are the two most important factors when it comes to tools.
While price is hopefully at least somewhat straightforward (we looked for good deals from reliable retailers) what do we mean by variety? Here, variety means both a variety of types of tools (we don’t want to offer ten circular saws, for instance) and a variety of ways to buy. We looked through ‘Tool Only’ deals, tool bundles, and tool-with-battery deals to get you the best. And, since it is Milwaukee, we made sure to have some balance between the M12 and M18 lines as well.
