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 
i will definitely let you know 
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!
allan d You got an excellent deal on those high CRI CREE bulbs, but today,
I got a MONSTER deal
yup - i remember that post. was trying my luck anyway
good god! that is a ‘monsterS’ deal.
useless? i think not! it’s as if you have a 4 dimensional map in your head of all things homedepot. guess how much this find today cost me? thanks to you!
all the duck tapes (except the camouflage) are at the penny price now. i got the solid red and yellow last week for about a dollar. i found these mac and cheese variety today for a penny
thanks lichan for the heads up. went back to where i had seen these for about $12, and they were still there!
edit - i think these too have been bumped down due to a newer version.
thank you master - your wisdom led me to this:
this guy didn’t have any prices nor was it anywhere close to its brethren. when i went to check the tools section where this could possibly have come from, i saw there was a newer model! something from master dchomak’s earlier wisdoms clicked in my brain and… see the following post also
i saw a box of these (only 3 inside) tossed into the clearance section with no prices. as the self checkout area was really busy, i did an additional level of check (same as with the above milwaukee torque lock) - i checked the electronics section and sure enough there was a newer version of this guy! so …
rule number whatever of the home depot penny club - if there is a newer version of an item, chances are that the previous version has gone to a penny - master dchomak has alluded to this in one of his many wise sayings.
