Tool and EDC Deals for Last-Minute Christmas Shoppers

We’re down to the wire, folks. Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Those of you still shopping for gifts are starting to learn what Ralphie meant when he said, “I can feel the Christmas noose beginning to tighten.” While I can’t help everyone, I can say that those of you shopping for a gearhead, or any handy person for that matter, are in the right place. Last week, Mike Febbo and I rounded up a bunch of deals on tools and EDC gear you could pick up in-store after purchasing them online. Those offers are still good, and I’ve rounded them all up here for you. Below is a list of over 40 deals on tools, EDC gear, and gifts you can have in your possession tonight.

My dad had a vacuum like this Craftsman 9-gallon corded wet/dry vacuum for as long as I could remember. While its age is starting to show, it has served us well over a decade. It’s cleaned countless car interiors, eaten a ton of my ’69 Charger’s rust when I finally started putting it together, and devoured unfathomable amounts of sawdust in my dad’s wood shop. For $49.99 at Ace Hardware, it’s a no-brainer gift for any handy-person this Christmas.

Lowe’s is also running a killer BOGO deal on DeWalt power tools you should check out. Right now, you can land the DeWalt XTREME 12-Volt Max Impact Driver for $149.00 and land a free tool of your choice. There’s a lot to pick from, making it a great gift you can tailor to any trade. For gearheads, however, I think you’ll be hard-pressed to top the 3/8-inch impact wrench.
