This Bosch kit deal is back again. Last seen at this price during boxing day sales. Separate items cost ~$800.
This Kit Includes:
1 x GSB 18V-60 C Brushless Hammer Drill
1 x GDX 18V-200 Brushless Impact Wrench
1 x GAL 18V-40 Fast Charger
2 x GBA 18V 4.0AH Lithium Ion Battery
1 x Cordless Tool Bag
Bonus 18V Blower RRP $119 via redemption.
The ProCore are worth the extra money. I've got about 10 of the 8ahs left from this deal that I am using on the blue range https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/457984.
If you can afford the ProCore, strongly recommend.
And also total tools has it for the same price:

Hmmm got the drill and 4a procore battery and drill deal from bunnings for $169 local store special instead of $199, do I want another mid range drill to just get old tech batteries blower and impact driver ?
I have bosch blues but see a ton of them brand new on ebay, fb selling new for throw away prices. I would not buy from a shop again
Not a bad deal with the blower or sander but I'd go with the newer batteries for that little bit more.
That said, I grabbed a set when the $230 deal came up a year ago (smaller impact and 3Ah batteries) and it's been great for around the house.
I'd caution against this drill, it was a nice upgrade from my 20yr old Makita, but the hammer function is pretty weak. Had mine less than a year and twice had problems with the chuck / hammer function. First time it was replaced with new, second time repaired. Even if you only want to put a single hole in cement, do yourself a favour and get a cheap SDS drill, the difference is amazing.
My other gripe with the drill was that it doesn't hold a 1mm bit like the old Makita.
Wasn't sure I needed the impact driver, but it has been great and I'll never look back.
Yeah you do get what you pay for. My Dewalt drill has a wobble and it just doesn’t have the same quality feel as more expensive units. It’s strong though.
This Bosch seems to be the cheap end unit.
What’s SDS?

I've had both these in the non brushless for about 6 years and it's been the perfect combo for DIY and general home use. All works perfectly since day 1. Would love to upgrade to brushless but no real need since what I have is going so strong
Issues with the drill, better quality alternatives out there as others suggested.
Sounds pretty good. Seems to come with the older batteries. You can get something similar with the newer Procore batteries for a bit more:
