Is that what the red stickers mean? Saw a bunch of Irwin Oilers and snips with a red sticker

I stumbled across this on the website... In the store they didn't even have a tag on the shelf for it, they only had the next higher model which was full price.

These were stored in the cages behind checkout. I just went to customer service, gave them the item # and how many I wanted...

The box says 600A Peak, 300A Cranking. With winter coming up, for $20 it's too cheap NOT to have in your car!

Check the website, maybe some other models might be on clearance in other areas of the country... I missed them the first time because they aren't in the same category as the regular battery chargers.
These were $24.75 at 2540. 696199 also $24.75.These were in cage.

I hit two stores this afternoon, one twenty five miles away because I bought the 3M headphones online for pickup there as they had them @$12 two days ago. The other my home store. The distant store yielded some good items... but without the benefit of this thread, it would have produced nothing. Pretty much *nothing* was marked at the deep discounts we’ve been following. Using the info from this thread, I was able to seek out specific items, but found no clearance prices. I checked them with the App and all showed reg pricing. I finally asked the tool mgr to scan a couple of things with the “Lowes phone” and yes! The clearance prices showed up!
I got the Hitachi chop/grind combo for 99.50 (thanks to spfrazierjr for posting that pic!) ; the digital angle finder for 12.47; the sidewinder saw for 29 ( that’s right, not 15 ) some clamps and light bulbs.
I hated bugging the tool gal to scan this and scan that, but it’s not my fault their app doesn’t pull up the real price. The tool gal was quite surprised that she had unmarked clearance prices items.
It didn’t work with everything as they have plenty of the 41” SS tool cab and they’re priced at 399 so far.

When I went to my home store, again pretty much a bust. I did see a decent mark down on a Bosch laser.
In general they didn’t have much of marked with the deep cuts. The clearance pile in OPE hadn’t grained anything interesting. None of the ladders or rakes or shovels were marked and I didn’t try getting an employee to scan everything.

That roll of THHN made me remember, I was looking at the board above the "Wire by the foot"...

I saw they had 12 gauge THHN for 1-cent/ft (regularly 39-cents I think)!!!! LOL... Nothing else caught my eye but I just skimmed... So worth doing a quick look if you need some wire.

I can't believe I went back to Lowe's this evening and totally forgot about those remotes! I wanted to grab one... Oh well, I'm sure I will be there again soon! lol

I’ve been watching the Lincoln store closely for some of the bargains shown here. However, except for the tool cabinet I got a couple weeks ago, desirable things have been few.
Today, my work took me to Omaha where I checked out the Dodge St location. They had a huge area of clearance items near the entrance door.
I scored a cordless drill rack, a Reese hitch receiver ring, and a 1/2hp sump pump. All of these were 75% off.

This Lowes Easter egg hunt has been the most fun I’ve had in a while haha it’s awesome having other people spot stuff; then finding out if you missed it, it’s available or not yet discounted and will be later. It’s hot deals on crack this week!

Good eye on the Bosch laser tools. I paid $29 for the measure and 39 for the level so $22 for both is a steal!!

Has anyone else noticed that items that were discounted 2 days ago have gone back to full price? I noticed a few tools in that had gone back up in the same store.

There’s also a white ceiling fan for $25 each normally $99. I picked up 2 for our spare bedrooms. I have one of the qalo rings that I wear to work just so I don’t loose my finger if something happened.

Got a number on that fan?

yup. took a kobat toolset marked $32 off clearance table. It rang up at msrp price of $129. manager came over and said system price has changed, but she had to overide to match the sticker clearance price.
Crazy lowes at it again.

That happened on the small metric set that was $5.00 went back to $19.95. Crazy as usual.

Does the kobalt cordless drill rack only hold kobalt tools?

My Milwaukee stuff fits in it ok. I might clearance the opening a little for some of the larger tools like my 1/2" impact. For that price it's cheaper to modify than to buy the materials to build your own.

I picked up a couple last night for $6.25. Price shows up online for $25 each though.

I can confirm that it holds Bosch 18V drivers quite nicely. It also holds Bosch 12V drivers just fine.

I thought about making my own out of wood and customizing the cutout sizing, but the time and effort required to do so is probably not worth it!

Lots of great deals on doors too. Might be just my local store. Steel exterior, glass paneled, and some standard if anyone is in the market. 1830b15e90fd7218745bc98c43fa1611.jpga10478f4ab28e9644addf0889c3c94b2.jpg6b19184261af484de215b2dbf1525572.jpg

Just wanted to say thank you all for these deals, had some luck yesterday by going in and searching high and low. Also I’ve realized the app makes it much easier by scanning than asking employees the price every time I find an item however the app doesn’t always give you the right price. Was able to find 2 of the hitachi compressors But I had to search. Looked like an employee had hidden them behind a cart in the corner with clearance stuff. On the app it scanned as 100$ but I took it to the front and rang up for only 38$

Got some rakes and a couple shingle removers for $10 a piece

A little off topic but what app are you guys using? There seems to be quite a few out there. Not sure which one is best.
Thanks in advance.

Do NOT use Brickseek... Any of the deals you find on there will alert the paying members that flip stuff for a living and they will swoop in on anything good before you get a chance to go to the store...

I've just been browsing categories of stuff I'm interested in, the 75% off tag stands out pretty easy. Likewise I *highly* suggest going to your local stores, there are things that do NOT show up online, they still will ring up full price in the Lowe's app, or even show out of stock / unknown.... Only the sticker price on the item in hand is the way you are going to get it.

I'm sure a TON is going to get wiped out this weekend with the usual weekend crowds...

EDIT - One of my stores had some doors marked down, I would say no more than half a dozen... There is also the usual clearance area in the back of the lumber section from returns and wrong sizes where doors & windows are marked down.

I found the Werner 375lb platform last night for $19.98 (regular $80):

https://www.lowes.com/pd/Werner-1-7-ft-x-4-ft-x-16-in-375-lbs-Aluminum-Work-Platform/1000399287

I also saw the Werner 225lb platform for $22.49 (regular $45):

https://www.lowes.com/pd/Werner-1-71-ft-x-12-ft-x-20-56-in-225-lbs-Aluminum-Work-Platform/999946108

The 375lb platform is really nice. It has features other than the max weight that make it a premium platform (much larger platform area, hand hold in the middle, ability to lock 2 units side-by-side)

Didn't Lowe's items used to show you their location??? Now it seems neither the website nor the app show that anymore... :(

I noticed this also. Most items still show location though. It seems that lots of the clearance items do not show location - maybe because they are supposed to be relocating them to a central 75% blowout area?

As has been mentioned though, most of these new 75% off clearance items are not marked in store (yet). I bought a ton of stuff last night and none of it was marked down in-store.

Funny, I bought a couple of those cordless arrow staplers for $14.99 at one store yesterday (other store was $59.98)...

Now their prices have flipped... Original store shows full price, other store has dropped to $14.99... lol.

Also I've noticed a few items with a red "clearance" label on the website. I've never seen that before, and the price is still a lot higher than what others are reporting. I'm going to have someone price-check in-store and see if it matches online or if it's a hint the item is going 75% off...

Never mind on the lock.. I searched for an hour with the help of an employee to no avail this morning.. ordered online for pick up thinking there was a slight chance 1 employee in the whole damn store knew where one was.. I got a ready for pickup email 20 minutes later... cant complain but I'd love to know where it was hiding lol
