Retirement is a blessing and a curse when it comes to home projects. Now that you’re likely spending more time at home, you can finally enjoy some downtime. However, now that you’re spending more time at home, however, your DIY sensibilities could go into overdrive.
Whether you feel like making small, fun improvements around your home and garden because they’re a great way to pass the time, or you can finally knuckle down and fix some things that have been nagging at you, Home Depot’s recent sale items have you covered. Here are seven deals retirees will want to jump on.
Heavy Duty Welded Utility Cart With Wooden Top
This Husky brand utility cart is not just beautifully made and sturdy, with two trays and functional wooden top for projects on the go, it’s got wheels! You don’t have to worry about dragging it around your home or garage — your only challenge will be figuring out which project you want to work on first. This leading name in utility products and tools is built to last, too, and it’s on sale. Save over $207 and get it for the sale price of $170.14.
Adjustable Steel Garage Storage Rack Shelving Unit
Retirement is an excellent time to downsize and reorganize spaces like closets, garages and sheds. To help you organize everything from books to boxes to storage bins, this King adjustable steel storage shelving unit will be a must-have. At 72 inches tall by 36 inches wide by 18 inches deep, you’ll be amazed how much you can get off your floors and out from dusty attic spaces. Save over $51 and get it for just $120. You do need to assemble it yourself.
GE Electric Range
The downtime you gain in retirement is a great time to hone old skills or pick up new ones, like cooking. Get ahead of tariff-induced appliance price hikes coming your way too, with this GE free-standing electric range. The surface is stainless and easy to clean, and it has an air fry function that doesn’t require preheating. This deal is almost as delicious as the meals you’ll make, at more than $421 off the original price, for a deal of $728.
Vevor 5-in-1 Stand Mixer, Grinder and Juicer
While you’re in the kitchen, save space with this multifunctional electric mixer. Whether you’re ready to take up baking as a pastime or just ready to host for events and holidays, this Vevor five-in-one stand mixer does more than a conventional mixer — including meat grinding and juicing — at a price far less than some of the pricier brands for standard mixers alone. You can get this mixer for an everyday low price of $158.99.
Cowsar Espresso Machine
Your morning cup of coffee tastes even better when you can rise when you wish, no longer committed to the timetable of your employment. Make your coffee special with this Cowsar two-cup, stainless steel espresso machine. From creamy lattes – using the milk frother steam wand — to bracing espresso, your morning cup will never taste so sweet as when you’re saving money by making it at home. You save $59 and get it for just $174.99.
Wellston Indoor Plant Stand Flower Rack
Ready to beautify your patio or garden in your free time? Gardening can be a pleasurable way to pass time that is meaningful and active but doesn’t require the commitment of being anywhere at any particular time. Home Depot’s garden center is full of suggestions for planting and plant stands, including this rustic, five-tier indoor plant stand flower rack with side hanging hooks. Save over $50, paying just $99.69, and transform an indoor or outdoor space into floral magic.
Milwaukee Cordless Brushless Pruner Shears
If a little plant hanging inspires you to get more serious about your gardening, you might find yourself pruning back trees, bushes or even thorny flowers like roses.
