Husky Black Friday intel?

[Yammie]

My local Home Depot has had the 46” wide, 24.5” deep Husky roller carts for sale for some time for $309. This week, the price went up from $309 to $398. At the same time, inventory went from 9 to 48, leading me to the brilliant conclusion that they will be on special for Black Friday

Has anyone got inside info on what pricing will be?

Based on my previous Black Friday experience, very likely the 46" model with wood-top will hit the $200 range on Black Friday and will stay that way for couple of weeks. I picked one up a couple of years ago for $200 plus tax. Definitely worth it

I saw some of them marked with Black Friday tags up on the high racks today at HD when I was there today.

I've been wondering about this box too as I noticed the price and quantity increase. I picked up a black 41" Kobalt 3000 series top box cheap and this one will make a nice mate. If HD "leaked" their BF ad, I could go ahead and pick up a gift card at Kroger and get the 4x fuel points this week. One of the Milwaukee box combos is usually a BF deal too.

It will probably hit $250 again like it did earlier this year. The older non-deep units hit $200.

I was in the HD at Marysville Ohio, and they had a **** load of those cabinets on the floor. More than any rational store would normally want on hand. Appeared to be changing the layout of the toolbox area too.

I'm betting on about $250 for the newer deep units. They've been $309 up til about 3 weeks ago when they raised the price, to drop it for black friday.

Last year (maybe it was the year before) I think they had the 20” deep units, with drawers in the 18” depth range. It was a good deal for sure. This newer model is 24.5” deep and has 22” deep drawers, which is really nice. If they get down into the $250 range I’ll grab a couple for overflow from my big box!

Thanks for the replies. It’s good to know similar stockpiling is going on at other stores.

They may also blow out remaining Milwaukee combo boxes for $100-200 off. Last year they had an upgraded Milwaukee set with deeper drawers that was only $100 more, but they never restocked them.

Those Milwaukee combos (not the larger ones they discontinued) that are $798 online have been down to $599 in most stores for awhile now. At least one store in Texas has/had them at $499.

None of my local stores show stock when checking online, but each has a few on the floor.

If I could find them for $499, I'd pull the trigger so damn fast.

I need a top box, but they're only at $350 online. Be glad to spend another $150 and get the whole top and bottom.

I took these photos last week. They had these sitting in the garden section. They also had the 61" and 72" box but didn't take pictures since the HD employees were giving me a dirty look.

Anyone know if the ~60 inch workbenches with the pegboard will have some kind of deal? I like them, but not enough to spend $800 on one. I may just go for a 46" and build a workbench but I like the idea of it all being one unit, as I'm renting my space and it needs to be at least somewhat portable.

The HD ad is sometimes leaked early, but HD makes them remove it. And corporate folks get a preview of some of the deals, but far from all of them.

Was at HD today and they have tons of boxes in the isles that are unopened tagged for black friday. The boxes clearly say what they are....just no price.

I wish they would bring back that premium Milwaukee box with the two long drawers. I should have bought it last year.

What were some of the the items displayed on the boxes' list contents? Don't worry, this is a secured portal

Couple questions if you could all help answer them for me.

Does Home depot do the same price on line as in store?

If I was to buy a box now would Home Depot do a price adjustment on black Friday?

 

[winlinmac]

I believe Home Depot does make a disclaimer in terms of price matching Black Friday prices. I would probably be best to buy in-store instead of online and ask an associate if adjustments could be made on those days.

did anyone notice the sku on the pink tag is different than the box? and if you search the pink tag it comes up as nothing

 

[winlinmac]

That's a Black Friday SKU Exclusive, inventory reserved for Black Friday. After the holidays, original SKU will be used again.

Anyone know if these boxes are being sold yet with the black Friday pricing?

It won't happen until BF

My store has also brought in a ton of the 46x24.5" units so they're definitely a BF deal, not to mention the ones stashed in lawn & garden w BF stickers on 'em

What's everyone's thoughts on the 46 inch versus the US General 44 inch Series 2? I like the US General a little better but the price difference would be more tools to put in the box. I'm just a DIY guy so it's not going to be used that hard, and it'll probably get upgraded in a couple years, but I don't want to hate my box in that time.

I would base the decision on if you ever plan on adding a top or side accessories.

I really like the Huskys’ for work bench builds, but I have not played with a Yukon to compare (none on display at my harbor freight)
