They put the trim nailer sku on it so it was not pulled when it closed out. Good catch.

The above note got me to thinking......Was out the other day checking out a few stores when I noted what I thought was a Paslode Framing Nailer up in the rafters (not too high, but would need an orange ladder to retrieve). Checked the SKU and saw that it belonged to a 16 Gauge Trim Nailer so I kept walking. My wife, who accompanies me on many of my shopping trips - she is very adept at scoping .03 and penny deals, and based on her stature, she is 5 feet tall, is better equipped to reach the lower shelving - noted the same nailer and asked me if I had checked it out. Due to a prior commitment, told her we didn't have time to check it out further and we proceeded to go home. Came home and read the note above and began to wonder.
Went back to the store on Friday. Found quite a few penny items there - bottle covers, step treads, wrenches (see pictures) all of which were free. Prior to departing I decided to check out the nailer the right way. After trying to retrieve it via the yellow ladder - about 2 feet short - I asked an employee if he would retrieve it for me. He did, without scanning it first - and handed it to me. It had a layer of dust on it, but when checking the cardboard sleeve it was clearly evident that it was the 30 Gauge Framing Nailer, which had previously pennied out. Further inspection of the box showed the proper SCU number. Took it to the SCO and the attendant there confirmed the penny price. She took the anti-theft device off of it and told me to enjoy it. She also asked me how I was able to find so many penny items and I just replied "dumb luck". Didn't show her the electronic listing of .03 and penny items I have gleamed from this site (don't use the computers, just go shopping with a list of items that I try to locate - may not be the most productive method, but it works).
Went to a total of 7 stores on Friday. Found a penny item(s) at each of the stores but one. The stair treads were found at the same store as the bottle covers, door bells, wrenches and nailer. Once again they were free (total of 28). Needed those for both the stairs around the house and the handicap ramp I have for my daughter in my garage. Will be looking out for more as they will wear eventually and free makes them much more affordable. At one store I found a half filled display of the Husky Organizers (24 in total) which also rang up a penny. Store MOD told me to take them for free, but warned me that I could not return same. No problem I told him and took them to my car. All of the items in the pictures were a penny with the exception of the Extension Cord which ran $3.98. Also found some storage bins - 10 gallon which were not as good of price as those found by another member, but will suit my needs, and a Milwaukee Heated Hoodie Kit that cost me $74 minus 10%.
All in all a Good Friday in more than one way.
