Well Ive been eyeing this fluke multimeter that been hanging out in the tool section of my local kmart for awhile, it seems like its been moved around everytime ive been there. Anyway, go in today and its over with the clearance tools, took it over to the price scanner just for the hell of it. $27 -> :wtf: me. I must of scanned it three times just to make sure. Walked out the door with it for $35 (bought some warrenty just in case I burn it up while im learning to use it). Does anyone know what "normal" fluke model this is closest to? Packaging says its made specifically for sears (and kmart).

Its still listed on their website but does look like a newer model, may have superseded it. They still have some nice accessories for it, however; check out the link below for the specs and available accessories.

Yea I saw that when I was searching for more info last night, the manual also mentions its a "110" series. Eh either either way it was cheaper then I wouldve been able to buy it even used, and its way more then I need.

Well, I decided to run down to Kmart to see if they had a similar deal. Not only did they not have this deal....no multi-meters at all! But at least Im reminded why I dont go to Kmart...that place was so dirty and disorganized, poorly staffed.
Anyway, just because I couldnt get the same deal....you suck!:spit:

Yea I checked another one a couple towns over as well lol. I doubt any others will have one. I think it was just a fluke (pun intended) that they still had this one at all.

Years ago, one of their competitors (Beckman maybe?) had a great advertising slogan:
It's not just a fluke.
