Looking for some tools to get a head start on your spring renovation projects? Check out the deal on this Craftsman 8-amp Belt Sander: now only $89.99 (regularly $149.99). You are saving $60 which equals 40%.

• Click here to get your own belt sander @ Sears Canada

Evidently it uses a standard sanding belt, and comes with one so you will be ready to go. It also comes with a 2 year warranty – very important for tools! There is one review on the product so far:

Had one from a local Tire store, (their own brand) used it a few times and the drive wheel gave out and there was dust going everywhere from that one. This one is very powerful and very little dust. Works like a Champ!

My father used one of these once in a while: they are very simple to work with and would be much better for a sanding job than doing it by hand.

Amazon Canada has a great deal out for the guys out there.  They have select tools on sale up to 74% off.  This sale is on until 6th January 2012.

• Click here to shop at Amazon Canada

Here are just a few of the brands to choose from:

• Up to 74% off Bosh
• Up to 67% off Milwaukee
• Up to 30% off Black & Decker

There always seems to be great deals online for the women but not a lot for the men.  This is definitely one for the guys to take advantage of.  I have found that tools also make great gifts.  It is one of my husbands favorite gifts to get.  He seems to go through drills fast (or just wants new ones often) so this Bosh 34612 Drill/Driver would be great for him on sale for $100.10 (regular price is $259.90) That is a savings of 72%!  I have noticed that a few items say not in stock but will be delivered when available. If it says this you can still buy the item and it will be delivered within 3 weeks usually.

Pricematters has an incredible deal on a Stanley 75 Piece Socket Set – only $49.99 with free shipping. Give your man something HE wants this Christmas: he will be delighted to see this under the tree!

• Stock your man’s tools with a Stanley 75 Piece Socket Set

Product details:

• 1⁄4″ drive
• chrome vanadium steel sockets and ratchets
• full-polish chrome plating
• 6 points
• standard and metric
• lifetime warranty

Now, Pricematters doesn’t list the original price but I found the exact same product on Sears Canada (click here to see) and it was priced at $99.99!! So you are essentially saving 50% on regular retail price! This is a great steal of a deal.

My father always had one of these around the garage, it was good for cleaning up all sorts of messes. The ones I remember most though are sawdust: lots of sawdust went into that machine. Sears Canada ha a great deal on a Craftsman 45L Wet/Dry Vac – 50% off in fact! Get one for only $59.99 – regularly $119.99

• Keep your garage or shop clean with this Craftsman Wet/Dry Vac

What I liked about this vacuum was that it didn’t matter what it sucked up. If the sawdust was wet – the Vac could handle it. If some fluid spilt on the floor – to could handle that too. Regular vacuums just aren’t built to be sucking up wet stuff as well as your dry stuff: or at least not the household vacuums I use. But for a shop this is important because you never know what is going to end up spilt. For this price: such a deal!

A good way to encourage your man to keep the garage/shop clean!

What a deal from Amazon Canada on some great gifts for your man (or handy-woman). Take your pick of a Milwaukee 3/8 Inch Drill/Driver for $139.99 | originally $340.03 or a Milwaukee 12 volt Impact Driver  for $139.99 | originally $415.70.

• Save $200 - Milwaukee 2410-22 M12 12-Volt 3/8-Inch Drill/Driver

• Save $275.71 Milwaukee 2450-22 12-volt Impact Driver Kit

Totally wicked savings, and great ratings on Amazon.com too:

This little wonder is a great jobsite drill/driver. It’s small and light enough to fit in a tool-belt bag. The battery has enough charge so that the two it comes with last the whole day, with plenty left over. It has plenty of power for most home-building jobs short of driving lag bolts, and the little headlight is great for setting screws in dark recesses.

“This is a very high quality tool with extremely good battery life. Good light suty tool, not as powerful as a 3/8″ cordless impact, but very lightweight. Overall I use the tool everyday in the shop as a Volvo Technician and am satisfied with the performance and value.”

They come with a 5 year warranty.
