so my daily visit to home depot (going there to get a screaming deal on LED lights) I’m near the customer service as I have coupons they have to adjust and a guy is standing there complaining he had bought a Milwaukee fuel grinder and the disc wrench is missing …..wants to return it and is pissed right off……anyway I over hear the convo and when I come up to the desk I ask the girl what do you’s do with the products in a case like that? she says I have no idea but I can ask my manager….so as she is doing my coupons the manager shows up and she asks him…..he says why do you ask are you interested I said if the price is right…..he says how about 50% off……I almost choked……..umm ok I’ll take it…..

Wow. Extremely jealous. Congrats
Congrats.
That’s an awesome deal.
I love mine. It’s about as good as you can get with a cordless grinder. That’s a fantastic deal and you know the guy didn’t even use it because of no wrench 😉 He should have just asked nicely for one of the replacement wenches they keep in stock in most HD’s. His loss, of temper at least, your gain.
ya I thought it was a good deal too, especially knowing I had 10 different wrenches at home….
That’s awesome!
I feel better knowing that I’m not the only one that goes to home depot daily! I’ve never scored a deal like that though. Well done.

That is an awesome deal!! Wish Home Depots near me were cool like that. They only RTV stuff here 🙁
you got a manager that didn’t want to do paperwork, well done
Milwaukee had a easy RTV process, all you have to do is tag it with a green label an you’ll get full credit. No paperwork needed.

Heck Yeah! I wish it would happen to me too. Heck, even someone I know. I guess going to HD every other day isn’t enough.
My Home Depot sucks. They’ll have a return that’s beat to hell and they mark it down 10% – 15%
That was an awesome score and you’re gonna love the grinder!
Nice deal Comp. I am jealous.

Yea, I love the deals mine try to give. Hey I will give you 10-15% off with missing 1/2 the accessories like batteries and charger 🙁
Comp56 that’s awesome man. I’ve over heard that some people will either have a friend or family member that works at HD and they would damage the box of a tool on purpose to discount the price. Too bad I don’t know anyone that works at HD right now, lol. Anyway’s that’s an awesome deal, congrats
