JimboS1ice Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 My HD has them in the power tool aisle, plumbing, electrical and that's about it, maybe 3 sections. Jimbo Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is insane! One of the busier HD's has them in electrical, power tool batteries and in the nailers section. The lesser busy stores only have them in the nailer section, in Tampa. The Walmart across the street from the busier HD has those cameras in pretty much all sections but no audible noise, just a screen and sign.

MikeInCtown Posted April 5, 2016 Report Share Posted April 5, 2016 Stopped at the HD by the ofice for lunch. No camera chimey things anywhere that I noticed. It is in a more well to do suburb. Anyway, I noticed that the current M12 promotion is ending tomorrow, so more than likely there will be a new M12 promo very soon. they also hada lot of kits (cheaper ones) on display for some sort of spring sale. There were also several displays that had plastic covering them up, so I don't know what was hidden. The price on the 2897 FUEL (or is it 2798?) Non One-Key kit was back up to $399 from $349, making it far cheaper to get the one key kit then returning the free tool for credit. Like a $70+ difference when you factor in sales tax. Last, it peeves me off that I can't buy the #2 square drive 2" impact bits in the two pack like the #1 and #3 bits. I have to buy at least a 5 pack at twice the price. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only available in a 5 pack because they know you'll break them often Milwaukee makes a lot of great things but bits are not one of them.

They are really annoying and ensure you know you are being watched? They have that in the tool section, in my Depot, it is the most annoying thing in the world, I feel like yelling into the camera.... Shut that POS off already! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like i'm always being watched...lol....I had a old lady cashier say to me the other day that she sees me walk in and out of her store multiple times without buying anything and asked why ? I said i'm always looking for tool deals. She then says thats what weekly fliers are for and I explained that when tools get clearanced they dont get put in fliers. They get clearanced and place on a shelf and its 1st come 1st served. Half the times I have to bring it to a HD employess attention that something up on the shelf is a certain price. Yeah, don't you love when you walk in the tool section and a beeping starts and the camera's start filming you. Makes me want to leave everytime. I have been asked at HD many times if I need help. I am the type that I don't buy something unless it's on sale and like you say the best deals are not advertized. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickyMcGrath Posted April 7, 2016 Report Share Posted April 7, 2016 I don't feel weird. I get irritated. When you're just browsing and 30 employees come ask you if you need help. Then when you're actually looking for something or need them to get something down, no one is to be found. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I needed help this weekend ordering some doors but you would have thought it was a damn ghost town. As soon as I walked into the tool section just to browse since I was in the store I was swarmed with potential helpers!

RickyMcGrath Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 My favorite is when you're looking in the top stock and an associate INSISTS to help you multiple times. I wanna say, "dude, I probably know your store better than you do, give me a ladder and I'll make sure to put everything back the way it was." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

comp56 Posted April 24, 2016 Report Share Posted April 24, 2016 funny story, when one of the first home depots opened up in our city my brother and I went there, not a big deal the store was only open for about a week. when we walked thru I got the weirdest stares, in fact a couple that were coming out of a door that said staff only looked at me and instantly turned around and went back in. so after about 10 minutes of this my brother looks at me and says what the hell......turned out without me realizing I was wearing my Tony Stewart Home Depot Nascar jacket.... to them I probably looked like a big boss......lol because the store was so new.... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
