Yea wasn't thinking clearly at the time, just wanted the transaction done so I could gtfo!
Wow didn't realize Dewalt gimped this saw that much, might as well buy a 10" slider if that's the case, but it'll do til I find a better deal on a nicer saw. I wouldn't buy the HF saw after seeing this vid, might not be a dealbreaker for some but is for me, skip to 1:40 in the vid.
Same here.. Most HD treat penny sales as criminals,, some are really vicious and start going nuts, accusations..I wasn't trying to start a ******* contest, I wasn't even looking for .01 items just browsing through the store I actually was buying it for myself whatever the cost was. Just to make it clear I was not looking for penny items. I was just pissed off the way they treated me at check out like a criminal, which is why I called.

Yep.. Sometimes Yu report them for their treatment and if that same store gets too many complaints. I am sure he Corp or district manager will discuss issues of complaints of store.. And I am sure no manager wants to be on the spotlight of complaints... That's only way bad managers will change... Some managers will just say ok,, take it.. Or void transaction and just give it to Yu... Others will deny even $15.03 item that's pennies out.. It's just their **** personality of showing Yu their powers.
And don't worry,, HD has been doing penny accounting for long time.. My first penny at HD was back in 1994..but back then I really wasn't into HD deals or any deals.
I was told by HD Corp resolution csr that penny items was used by most all retail stores..

those don't exist round here in CT
Exactly, this is what pisses me off. Even if it is labeled with a higher price, and you go and checkout, they ****** it out of your hands and give you a dirty look. No apology or anything for not being able to sell it. This has been my experience at least. They act like you are stealing from their wallet.
At least around here anyway, it goes straight in the trash compactor. They'd rather throw it away and piss off a customer than let the customer have it.
If they donated the stuff, like some of the stores do in other parts of the country, i'd show a little remorse
One store here has 4 packs of grinders and one saw. They are soooooo slow to drop though... Been at $40 and $150 for what seems to be forever now...
so is there anything illegal with taking stuff out of a dumpster? i was driving by a HD recently and they were throwing a bunch of decent lumber that they just ripped out of hte parking lot that was basically just to keep cars out of the area. they just spray painted it all with purple lines and chucked it into a huge roll off.
I believe it is the property of the trash company once it is in the dumpster.
I think the dumpster with penny items is locked inside the building around here, not sure, but I don't want to go dumpster diving anyway lol. I'm pretty sure everything gets compacted or destroyed anyway.

"If the trash is on a public street or alley, it is fair game," Vince DiCroce of the Denver City Attorney's office says of Dumpster diving.once its in the dumpster its public property

I stopped by my local store after work today and saw an employee with a cart full of penny items from the lighting section, sconces and patio light accessories. I, in a joking tone, asked if he was getting rid of the penny items. He said yes, and I offered to just buy it and save him the trouble. He smiled and said he'd get into trouble. He added that if I find it on the shelf first it is mine. I enjoy a good relationship with, and good attitude among my local HD employees. Now I just wish they weren't so good at their jobs.
