cancelled mine again, you guys who keep buying and buying certainly aren't helping those who haven't gotten any.
Agree. leave some for the rest of members to buy
Lol, quit your whining. I ordered my first 2 days ago, and just ordered more minutes ago. You jump on it when you can, right away. The store the order is going to is the reason you are getting cancelled, not me.
You guys have been a member of this forum... a month? And you're telling other people to stop buying something?

Clearly they are monitoring these orders given they are mostly getting cancelled. my reorders which were cancelled all originated from different places so you aren't doing anyone any favors but continue to be inconsiderate. I can tell you in the last month I've contributed more in a month than you probably have in 1k posts. Quality, not quantity my friend.

I just had someone tell me NOT to call about my order because it may ruin it for them...lol. Now that is whining..lol.

I agree with that, when you call all you are doing is bringing attention to an obvious flaw. People continue to call and they WILL fix this, trust me. I design these systems.

Yep, my wire came from near Little Rock... But some recent orders of various things have come anywhere from near San Antonio, TX to Chicago, IL....
I think some people are overly suspicious of others thinking they must be trying to order pallets of items one at a time...
In reality it's no different than the penny items at Home Depot... Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't... caveat emptor...TT_Vert

The online orders are more than likely processed at a centralized database and are getting flagged. There is no way multiple people at multiple locations are arbitrarily cancelling orders because they don't agree with the price. The more attention that is brought to this the less likely it will continue to be an option.

I disagree. I had one order cancelled quickly. A second and third order both cancelled after tracking numbers were issued, both coming from the Detroit area. A fourth order I just received FedEx confirmation it is in transit and is coming from Wisconsin. All other aspects of the order were the same. Looks like luck of the draw at this point.
I do agree though that the less attention the better. Calling and complaining will solve nothing.

I have ordered a couple of items in a couple of separate orders and from what I can tell it all depends on what store it’s shipping from. Some ship right away and get picked up, some ship but are intercepted before they leave the store and some get cancelled right away. I ordered a product two days ago and it arrived yesterday and I ordered the same product yesterday and it got cancelled and then ordered the same product again today and it shipped out and is on its way. That tells me that it’s pure chance at this point and I am going to keep trying until they fix the underlying issue which is there new online ordering system
Maybe maybe not. Probably 20 of your posts were complaining about having 2 different batteries in your garage.
It's simple. You get a deal or you don't. I learned my lesson a long time ago .. some you get some you don't. And btw, the first 2 I ordered will he for personal use, the last 3 I'll be giving to friends for their projects to help them out. I've never taken a deal here and made profit. In fact I've said a couple times in the past that o took a deal and there were several left that i left so others could get (in store that would be).
Back to the deals.
I tried to add 4 in the cart and the price shot up. I assume we have to order what it shows in stock at that store?

Batteries in my garage? HUH? You have to order the stock qty or less. Or you pay full price. It's a flaw in their system. Saving them money inadvertently now..
Super deals like this get abused by all the lurkers, especially from SD.
They constantly whine and call when things don't go their way. I don't necessarily agree with a secret society, but I do agree that deals like this,
should be kept under wraps and made available only to the ones that make
contributions.
oh boo hoo. people need stuff, people buy it if you really want people not to buy stuff then dont post it on a public forum.

This thread is out of control. If you want to get all the deals first, figure out how to find them without this forum. Or set up thread notifications so you see posts immediately, and then be annoyed when people post non deals. Honestly nobody’s gonna get every deal. You get some, you miss some. Just the way it works. Quit complaining.

I'm on board w/ others now. I'm keeping the good deals to myself and will send to those who I communicate with who reciprocate.
Dave
I placed 2 separate orders more than 12 hours apart, and both shipped.
I'm fairly confident that some stores see the price and cancel it, and others either don't look or don't care.
As others have said, you can't get every deal, so quit complaining. I've missed dozens of deals that I would have loved and have never complained about it. You win some, you lose some. Now lets drop it, and get back to the deals.
This is an amazon deal but should be beneficial to many that have popped up in this thread: https://www.amazon.com/B0082I1IA8

You are missing the point. I am pretty sure that there is some criteria which is flagging certain orders. After the order is processed i believe it is sent a store and I don't think they have the ability to arbitrarily cancel an order because they don't like the price. With that said, keep on keeping on and see how it goes..

Got my romex today. other wire tomorrow. Thanks everybody Good Luck
Now that we have all said our piece, let's put it aside and get on with the business at hand. Let's post some DEALS!!!!!!! Who wants to go first.
Loved the link to the pacifier! Reminds me at the office, I had a huge pacifier, the size of a small basketball. Whenever a coworker started whining they got the pacifier tossed to them, and had to keep it till the next crybaby came along.

Shipping not available from this store but others were showing up with lots in stock at $0.50.

Not sure what store you got yours but $0.90 at Rochester Lowe's, 4 in-store. Right now on my computer I can't change location but (I can on mobile) Rochester Lowe's just happened to be the last store I was browsing for deals. Regular price is $9.
Ordered it from a store in KS last night. Shipping option has been removed. Still a bargain if local store has it available for local pickup.
