In a previous life, I spent years working in other people’s yards. Now, I love the chance to work in my own. But this time of year, there are cold fingers, a lack of daylight, and holiday commitments to contend with. That’s why power tools are so beloved — and the right ones help get the work done faster.

Thanks to Black Friday, Amazon has Ego power tools on sale, with prices reduced as much as 25%. From trimmers to lawn mowers to snow blowers, you can save hundreds on electric power tools. Just remember, the sun will soon set on Black Friday and there’s no guarantee these prices will carry over into tomorrow.

First up, I already have a decent weed whacker, but I have been in the market for a long-handled string trimmer. The telescoping handle on this Ego power string trimmer makes it easy to adjust to various heights and garden configurations and it only weighs around 16 pounds, which is fairly manageable. Currently, it’s $269 on Amazon, which is a $100 discount. It has a rechargeable battery and a charging station and can run continuously for up to 60 minutes on a single charge, which is a remarkably long time in my experience.

I happen to live in a very snowy northern climate and I have a hideous gas-powered snow blower that makes terrible noises and produces lots of smoke. It’s honestly embarrassing. Admittedly, I got it for free, but I’ve been wanting an upgrade for a few years now. I might just cry if I got one as nice as this Ego Power Plus 28-inch electric, cordless snow blower, which is $2,049 at Amazon. While that’s still pricey, it’s $371 less than the regular price. It has two rechargeable batteries and a charging station and can clear a 32-foot driveway with 8 inches of snow on a single battery charge. Best of all, it can throw the snow up to 60 feet away. (If you know, you know.)

There’s also a much more affordable option — the Ego Power Plus 21-inch electric cordless snow blower. It is currently $699 , saving you $51 off of the full retail price. This one tosses snow a decent 40 feet, and comes with two batteries and a charger. It also has a steel auger for cutting through snow and ice.

These represent a few of the deals but there are plenty more on Amazon to check out including other lawn mowers and accessories.

Power tools are awesome, and also expensive. I love electric power tools not only because they can be blissfully quiet but also because they are easier for me to maintain versus gas-powered tools. Any time you can get your hands on decent tools at a discount is a good day indeed. Today is that day.
