Wish I understood your request dcho.
Also, Dang! I paid more than $7.53 just for the dang Rebel reflectors! Guess Iām going to HD tomorrow.
I only see this (copy and pasted):

Why donāt I see the picture links that are show above?
Nice finds dcho.
If that was a 2C Iād really hate you right now! (JK)
Seriously, congratulations on an awesome score!
I am traveling East on I86 from Ohio to CT thru NY and stopped by
5 stores just off the highway over a 300 mile stretch. 3 stores had the ā3ā price, the other 2 were still at the ā6ā. It was every other store, so I am assuming that if the ā3ā price isnāt at your store, it will be soon.
Remember to scan, one store was marked at a 6 but ran up at a 3.

ImA,
Because when you quote you get to āsee the codeā
What happened was that I removed Photobucket app from my phone. (I am done with it)
And I canāt figure out how to post pictures to BLF from the imgur app. I was hoping someone would pick up on it and post the pictures for me, and Unknown00101 did, Thanks!
There were 2 models of that 56V string trimmer, a 12ā and a 15ā model. As far as I can tell the only difference is the the size of the cutoff shroud for the string. The 15 inch model (ST1501-S) went on clearance around here last December at the 03 price. I got 3, like I said before, Iāll buy anything if itās cheap enough. Since then I have noticed the 12ā model (ST1201-S) go on clearance at the 06 price. It could be that they will go to the 03 price any day now. You would have to be extraordinarily lucky to find one for a penny. Not impossible, I caught 2 of the Ryobi 18V hard surface blowers for penny, at the same store 6 weeks apart!

I just spent the last 2 weeks in Ohio. Just before I left I had come across this deal.
There is a quick partial tear down of this light in this thread by sedstar
HUSKY brand at HomeDepot? anyone play yet?
I had bought one and it turns out to have been quite a good deal. Not only does the 3C light contain an XP-L, and come with batteries, there is an additional 3AAA light included in the deal. Even though this combo pack is on clearance, each of the individual lights are still available separately at full price.
So 19.97 for the 3C plus 11.97 for the 3AAA equals 32 bucks, but the combo was $14.06
On the way out to Ohio I used the UPC code I had cut out to check price in stores along the way. Each store was priced at $14.06 but none had stock. It seemed my local store was the only store with any stock left. 2 weeks later, on my way back to CT, I discovered I lost my UPC code. This morning after having gotten home late, I made a bee line for that store. The display was in the very back of the store, in front of the restrooms. My hope of course was that there was a further price reduction, to the ā3ā price.
Boy, am I a lucky man!
The top layer only had 3 lights but the bottom layer was full.

That is awesome! I think thats my next photo of the week! :laughing: :laughing: :laughing:
Would you like me to hold off on āBack Seat āO MagLitesā?
LOL
I know, I could PM you with that one so you can have upcoming content.
sounds good
Edit: And done, though i think i might blow SBās brains with my mouseover attempt
I went to HD today, they had a bunch of the cheapie defiant plastic headlights and some other non-exciting stuff on a table. Then there were two silver 2D xenon Maglites for $14 stashed behind the junk. I think there were some of those husky combo deals for $14 as well.
What kind of cells are in those string trimmer packs? I canāt use a trimmer, but cells may be a whole different story and worth the whole purchase price!

I donāt know yet. I have not even opened the boxes. I do know from the specs that they contain 15 or 16 2000mAh cells. Donāt know what brand. You are right, the cells alone could be worth the purchase price. We here at BLF have done that sort of thing before. Here is a link to an old thread, where at the time was a good way to get Sanyo 1500mAh IMR cells.
From 2012
Damn dcho! Great scores. I hit a HD on the way home tonight, but no luck on any of those items. They had some of the xennon Mags for $14.06 (price checked), but that is not low enough for me. They didnāt even have any of those AAA/2AAA Maglite packs left. Last week, they were still $20 here.
On my trip back yesterday I did find a couple of stores that had plenty of stock but the lights scanned at the 6 price. Did you actually scan the light or just go by the sticker price?
When I was at HD this morning grabbing all those Husky combo packs, I also found 1 2D Xenon MagLite and 1 LED Maglite. At this store, now in CT, they were 5.23 instead of 5.03 and 7.83 instead of 7.53. Before I checked out, I went to customer service and had them scan the UPC code for the LED Mag to see if they had anymore. They did not, but they said another store 6 miles away had 18. They also said no other stores in the area had them.
So as soon as I finished up I traveled the 6 miles to see what I could find.
BTW, I am telling you this, and anyone else, because sometimes it requires an extra effort.
When I got to the second store all I could find was 2 silver Xenon Mags on a clearance shelf priced at $14.06. At that time I was unsure what they would scan for so I took one up. Yep, $5.23. So I put them in my shopping cart and went up to customer service at this store. I handed my saved UPC code to the girl and asked how many of these do you have in stock? She looked it up and said ā18ā
I asked where they were and she told me the Isle and bay number, and came from around the counter and led me to where I had already been. Couldnāt find them.
She had to get back to customer service so she called the hardware guy and he came over with his special HD phone and scanned the code and said there were 18, ābut they do not have a homeā Well, that was good news to me, for I knew it meant they were in an overhead. He continued to look around for them even though I told him they were probably on the overhead.
Just then, āBobā walked by. I have dealt with āBobā before, he found some tool bags for me last month when no one else could. So I latched onto āBobā, the hardware guy, as he walked away, said BOB is like a ferret. Heāll find them for you.
And he did, they were in the overhead directly above the flashlight section. #727714, see that?, he said there they are.
He got a ladder and crawled up.
He yelled down that there were 6 to the case. I yelled back up were there 3 cases? (6 x 3 = 18)
He said NO, there were 4!
I also noticed that there were 2 sleeves of 6 each of the 2D Xenon Mags up there and asked him to retrieve those too.
Those 2D Xenon Mags come with the 2 Duracell Dās. Those are worth almost $4 right there!
4 pack at HD for $7.48
Anyday now, you should check each day.
The AAA/2AAA Maglite packs have gone to the 6 price in all the stores in OH, NY, CT that I have been to.
Donāt forget to ask customer service for stock. As I mentioned above, they could be in an overhead. I swear sometimes clearance items are put away on purpose!
EDIT:
UPC for 2D Xenon
UPC for 2D LED
I admittedly wasnāt too enthusiastic today. I went through a whole day of jury dutyā¦ :weary: :weary:
The xenon doesnāt really interest me; got plenty of them modded in different ways. I could probably use an LED version or two for parts/experimental pieces at $5-7. I didnāt bother checking upc or the upper shelves. Iāll have to do that later this week.
My store also had that Maglite combo pack 2 aa/aaa. I canāt recall if it was 14.06 or 19.06 though.
I found some door knobs in my local home depot, it ends with 03, and there are other items that ends with 03; but they all price check for the sticker price. None rang up for a penny. Is the penny price only true to some home depot locations? Thanks
