I just scored one on the east coast at $38.02!
I dunno where I’m gonna put it, and I barely got it in my Equinox but I got one.
All 3 employees involved with getting it down from the top rack and checked out wanted to know how I managed to find it and know that it was on clearance. The cashier (I tried to self checkout but it had no barcode) looked long and hard, triple checking the SKU since it had a $149 price on the top.
Wheeeeeee!
Thanks!
I didn’t check for stock on the store’s system. Customers in this area regularly clean things out by the time they get to the “6” price and the stores around here are very efficient at removing penny items before customers can get to them. I’ve taken to scanning the crusher area to see if any items are in carts awaiting crushing that might be grabbed by an artful dodger but the efficiency seems to carry over to that area as well. The only way to get a penny deal around here is if something has been “misplaced” in the stacks.
Thank you.
I just came from another HD store. Their in-store price check app said they had 2 in inventory at $38.02. An associate spent almost an hour searching the entire store for it. Couldn’t find it though 
Made it to the Utica, New York HD today looking for the Rolling Work Bench.
They checked and did not have stock and checked stores in the area and non had any in stock.
I do not know how far they could search but I think it’s in the 50 to 100 mile range.
On my trip back to CT from OH I went via Up State NY. I found 4 of the 100 piece Husky socket sets at $13.02 each and 6 of the 28 piece Combination
Wrench sets at $5.02 each
I stopped at 7 stores, these were the only ones to have either. These 2 stores were about 200 miles apart. I found the Socket sets first and had them check stores in the area for the combination wrenches, none in the area.
I didn’t dare look for the rolling workbench, I would not have had room for it in my car anyway. Actually finding one would have caused me no end of regret.
Let’s play a game!
Can anybody spot the penny deal in this picture of a clearance endcap? This is just how it looked as I first walked up to it.
OK, here is another. Do you see the penny deal?
(This one is impossibly tough) I saw it because I had already scored this deal a couple of weeks ago and the package is distinctive.
Extra Credit:
“Open a Home Depot Card & Receive a Free Gift”
Who can spot the penny item(s) on the table. 
There, I flipped the sign up to show merchandise under the table also.
The only one I can make out is the light wall sconce on the left hand side. I got a few of those for a penny a couple months back.
I would guess the 100W LED bulb on the top slight right
I would be shocked if its the compressor on the bottom left (plus its not distinctive)
Someone posted the light on the left a while back (radioshaq maybe)?
That would be correct IF it was the DayLight version of the Philips 100W bulb. 
That one is the Warm White bulb and is not YET a penny.
Don’t be shocked, it wasn’t
Concerning the “Open a Home Depot Card & Receive a Free Gift” table
That sconce jumped right out at ya, didn’t it? 
Once you notice an item of interest or you score one for a penny, the image of that item gets seared into your brain. Come across that item again and “it jumps right out at you”
I am not familiar with that sconce so it didn’t jump out at me, but several other items did.
The small beige containers behind the sconce, the 2 EverReady flashlights in the center, the WINK Home Security Suite on the right and the UV flashlight just to the right of that. These are all items that I have come across at a penny.
Plus under the table is a full case of the Husky 3D ArmourMax flashlights #852-955. Those went to a penny too!
Notice behind the sticker, someone wrote in marker “852-995) They got the number WRONG. Probably why this case never got pulled a couple of months ago when that light went to a penny.
When I first saw that table and it’s contents I thought how clever! Home Depot is giving away stuff they would normally just throw in the trash to encourage people to sign up for a HD Credit Card :money_mouth_face:
Ordinarily, they would offer $25 off the first purchase using the card.
(I would rather take the $25, and try to find those items for a penny on my own 
)
So, I am still looking for the correct answer for the first 2 pictures, and the correct answer to the 3rd picture, the items on the table
is EVERYTHING!
BTW, notice that the UPC code is covered with marker in the blowup below, so that it could not be scanned
Lately I have come across several items that would scan at a penny if they hadn’t either ripped off the UPC code or marked over it.
That allows them to sell penny stuff at prices other than a penny.
Connected hub?
I was hoping for more guesses, but you got it! That is a connected hub and 2 light bulbs, “a starter kit” that once set up, allows the user with the app on their phone or computer to turn light bulbs on and off or even dim them anywhere over the internet.
That package “jumped out” at me from 60’ away. Having already scored 1 of these on my trip out, I was aware of what it was and what it would cost.
I found 1 while I was traveling to Ohio thru Southern New York on route 86. The other I found while traveling back to CT thru Up State New York on route 90. Each way I visited about 7 HD’s along the way. Surely a rare find. Of course while traveling I knew of other stuff to look for and found other items as well. Point is it’s not easy, but it IS possible. Especially if one has a large library of possible items to look for. Timing is essential also. And luck.
Notice the Date: 05/17/15. This is 1 item that did NOT follow the normal 6 to 3 price. All Connected TCP stuff held at the “00” price and then were pulled.
I wanted to play, but just been too busy. You all are killing me with these scores. That tool box score for a penny rules. Congrats HomeDepotRob.
I’ll play to subscribe to the thread…
My GUESS is the blue box on it’s side, on top of the wrenches… My guess is that because it looks like some CE-Tech something.
Nope, but close!
Like I said, this one is difficult.
And once again, it jumped out at me because I had already come across this one before. It’s difficult from this picture because you would just have to know.
One thing to look for when shopping for penny deals is that they sometimes look like penny deals. That is they may be tattered and torn, or they are filthy dirty.
You showed the spanner set at 5.02 so it could be that at a different store, or the first aid kit like package in the middle
the husky blades? man i missed the entire game!! i knew quite a bit of these
I think the blades were discounted but scanned at a higher regular price IIRC.
Prolly that ratty impossible to make out item on the bottom shelf, against the wall, behind the attic covers.
Nope, not the blades. A couple of months ago I thought I scored a whole pile of those. They were marked at the 6 price and were old enough. But they scanned at full list.
Bort, I think finally got it.
Here is the distinctive package, at least to me. First the size and shape and the red and white edge.
The “6” price, but the date is 04/12/16. It’s old enough.
And here is what they are.
Those also jumped right out at me. And notice the amount of dust on them. Also a hint and proof they have been around too long. Time for clearance!
Rats, thought those were the wrenches that were $5.02 in previous posts. Think you bought 6. Saw bar socket wrench and SAE but even zoomed in I just passed the package as the combo wrench sets.
Sometimes you have to make your own deal.
I have been seeing this “Water Resistant” bluetooth speaker on clearance now for a couple of weeks. It is at the “4” price, about 50% off.
I was at a store and they had 1 left. Notice above that the box is tattered and had been opened a number of times by people checking it out. So I opened it too, turned it on and connected it to my iPhone via bluetooth. I played some music and it sounded pretty good!.
I had been waiting for the next price drop on these and it should be any day now. The “2” price would be about 75% off or around $7.52. This being the last light, and because the box was tattered AND it was soiled, I decided I would bring it up to the Service Desk to see if they would give me a deal.
I explained the $7.52 price and it was soiled etc, etc, and offered $5.00. The girl in Service said that she was willing but wondered if the computer would let her. It did, and she rang it up for $4.50 so that I would “save the tax”
Here are the pics of the cleaning. It was easy.
Good sized magnet on the speaker, it is monoral.
Controls on top include increment and decrement of song, on and off. The + and - buttons also control the volume. There is a built in microphone for hands free operation. It can be used to answer your phone.
On the side, their is a USB port to charge the internal Li-Ion cell!
Also there is an AUX import. And comes with the cables.
And I almost forgot to mention, it doubles as a lantern
This Bluetooth Speaker and Lantern is a great deal when it goes to $7.52. You may even want to get one at $15.04. In about a week, when it drops to $7.52, just bring in your receipt and they should adjust the price for you. Do that BEFORE it hits a penny and are pulled.
