Home Depot Deal Alerts & Discussion Thread

I have always been too lazy to take pictures… of anything or anyone - but for penny deals, i am prepared to do anything

Thanks for the info. That is what happened. I checked some prices today on some LED bulbs and the first time I check on one bulb I did scan the orange code and got the “Call Associate” but I did it again on a different copy of the same item w/o the clearance sticker and got the price w/o the warning.

Yes, that’s the one. Since it wasn’t an item I was in need of or could immediately use, I preferred to wait for the penny price, also.

Thanks.

I noticed that faucets don’t follow the regular clearance spiral thing; they always end in .00, except once I saw a faucet ending in .07.

Hey - would you mind posting a pic of the package it was in? will try to see if i can hit it.

I’m having trouble getting imgur to load my picture, some problem with Flash or something. I’ll try again later or look for another method.

use postimage

home depot rejected my review!! :rage:

hmm… i saw a dremel idea builder 3d printer on the clearance rack today - no price as usual at this place. don’t know if it is there by mistake. will probably price scan one of these days.

If you somehow get that for a penny buy a few extra, i’d be happy to buy one from you :money_mouth_face:

thanks for trying - can you tell which brand?

ha - they had just one. but if somehow i find more than one, and for a penny :open_mouth: i will definitely let you know :slight_smile:


At my local Home Depot, this is a special promotion by SDG&E (San Diego Gas & Electric). Last month the 60W equivalent HCRI bulbs were on the same $0.97 promotion.

I’d buy all of them.

I bought 12 of them. As of a few days ago they had about 1500 of them in stock.

I would have bought the maximum of the 60W the store would let me (or 50, whichever came first)

I came across that same deal in Massachusetts a month ago or so.

Turns out this is a 2nd version of the original bulb and NOT the “4 Flow” The 4 Flow has vents in the plastic globe that allows air to flow past the emitters. That 4 Flow bulb would not do well in enclosed fixtures I’m afraid.
This bulb you just picked up has the glass globe but not the sticky silicone coating on the outside as the original one did that I don’t like. It also has a pretty massive heat sink for long life. That heavy heat sink is usually a plus, but sometimes a light weight bulb is better for certain applications.

Very nice score!

WAIT!
I just noticed those bulbs are the High CRI ones!
That is more than a very nice score,
THAT IS AN EXCELLENT SCORE!!!

i found 2 of these at my local HD just hanging out on the clearance section. when i tried to price check them, they would not come up! i was tempted to ask an employee, but left them. might go back and try to buy them.

I posted about this a couple of months ago. They are sooooooooo past a penny that they are now longer in the system!
