Actually the “00” price is the very first stage of a wind down schedule, IF there is a date on the yellow clearance tag. This tool probably had a 6 price and a 3 price too. It’s just that this one tool never had the tag price updated.
The first clue to me was that it was laying horizontally across a couple of the peg board hooks in the tool section. When I saw the “00” and the date I figured it was old enough.
And it was.
Right now, dates toward the end of February are turning to a penny. Keep an eye on that 100W car inverter, it is just about old enough (03/01/16)
See, an example of maybe useless information swimming around in my head that I spoke about in my previous post
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.
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.
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.
