Lowe's

While we wait for a leak of Home Depot's 2010 Black Friday ad that actually has staying power (the retailer is busily hitting sites that post it with takedown notices), the full Lowe's ad has found its way online, and as expected, it's packed with over 100 sale items. As we already noted in an earlier post, some of the stuff, like the old-tech Ni-Cd cordless tool kits, you can probably ignore. If you're looking to upgrade your personal cordless tool stockpile, however, there are some more attractive-looking offerings scattered in the ad.

Makita lithium-ion drill

Between now and November 8, if you have an old drill -- even one that's not working -- you can bring it to your local Home Depot and trade it in for a 15-percent discount on a new lithium-ion cordless drill. The promotion is part of Home Depot's "Eco Options" drive, which is focused on getting customers to use more energy-efficient tools, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.  We're kicking ourselves because we recently tossed a couple of old drills that hadn't worked in years during a recent garage clean-up. If your current drill is old and busted, don't make the same mistake we did. This might a good time to upgrade.
