Sorry, you have to work there to get that. They call that the "friends and family the night before the sale, sale". Then come the day of the sale, they will mysteriously be OOS.

They need to for all the people they pissed off on the real black friday. They put a grill on hold for me because I was coming from an hour away, and then they sold it to someone else before I got there because they had come from the same town (cause, obviously there'd only be one resident living here, you know) and then tried to send me to the next store another hour and a half away to get a grill that wasn't even in stock, and THEN said they'd sell me the 5burner for the same price as the 4burner but then changed their mind and said they'd do the 3burner instead (not a deal at all.. small and crappy) but it was at the store another hour and a half away. Moral of my story/rant.. shop at Lowes instead! They sold me a better brand of grill, pretty much the exact same specs (but more BTU/grill area) for the same price and even searched all over the state to find it for me because they didn't carry it in store! Screw Home Depot.

However, if you decide you MUST shop there, at least screw them by using THIS COUPON good through April something (7th?) 2007 for 20% off your entire purchase (very few exclusions). Enjoy.

They've done this the past two years. Probably nothing to write home about unless there are items you are specifically in the market for.

I work for home depot distribution center. I didn't see anything special.. I saw mostly the same stuff we shipped out for black friday but less of it.. They might have other things on sale that we didn't ship.

i dunno bout lcds.. my dc doesn't carry lcd's..

Thats funny because I got screwed the same way with you on the grill. Atleast they thought about giving you the 5 burner as an option then they took it away from you. My HD didn't even think about it and I asked for something close or better and yet they offered me this stupid 3 burner unit as well. Oh well, they did offer to make a special order for that grill for 199.00 and the next one that comes in will be mine for that price. You mention that there was a grill that you got a Lowes that day. Which one was it and how do you like it so far? I'm in a need of a replacement grill for the one I have right now. Let me know if you can please so I could do some reseach on the grill that you got. thanks!

Oh and regards to that 20% coupon, I'm reading it and it states that its only good in "specific" HD locations. Theres a list of the stores but of course non of the ones I go to.... Read a little closer. It only specifies locations for "The Home Depot Supply(tm)". The first store listed is the plain old "Home Depot" with no location restrictions.

Anyone know where the originals can be had?

eBay, I bought a few for some friends, and most Lowes will accept competitor coupons.

The grill I ended up getting from Lowes was the Charbroil 4-burner all stainless steel grill, with a side burner. BTU is 50,000 and I *think* the grilling area was 660sq in. It's a Christmas gift for my parents (my dad wants a Charbroil) and after looking at the similar one at Lowes (they had the same one in stock but it wasn't all stainless steel) it's much heavier (as far as the lid) and just looks like such a better quality grill. You can see it on the Lowes website if you search for 4-burner charbroil. It looks exactly like that (the all stainless steel with side burner) but doesn't have the side handle that one shows. Mine's a different sku 141116. The one on the website I believe is the new model coming out. They had to search everywhere to find mine to bring in. I took the 20% off coupon to Lowes and used that on my purchase, but haven't picked the grill up yet as the box is pretty much as big as my Cavalier. But yeah, my dad had mentioned he liked Charbroil before they knew I was getting them one, so I'd imagine it's a good brand.. my dad is a huge pain in the arse with that stuff!

EDIT: The grill I bought was $349 regularly, clearanced (all their grills are right now.. or atleast 90% of them) to $279.. PM'ed to $199 (bought this last week mind you, had to reconvince someone else to PM it cause the manager who OKed it BF night wasn't there) then couponed it down to $169. Great deal! Even though the Charbroil is cheaper than the Charmglow regularly (CG is $399) I think the CB is much better quality.. I took a magnet to the CG in the HD store and it pretty much stuck to the entire base and the flat sides where the burner is and the other side so looks can be deceiving, it's not all SS and it was showing rusting even in the store. I feel much better with the Charbroil!

I can confirm this deal ad will be set Wednesday night sale will start thursday.... more tv's and other stuff but nothing like the $478 lcd...

When I got to the HD in NJ on BF the manager told me that the TV's were already gone (shocked since I got there when it opened and nobody was in line). Then one of the employees advised me "wink" that that they were taken quickly (both pre-sale and employees). The manager then said that there would be a BFII before Christmas and thought the LCD's would be in stock again.

I did get the gorilla ladder though and it is awesome, as well as the drill bits and the shopvac. They were all great deals.

You won't be worrying about the $30 you lost when you're facing criminal charges for committing fraud against the 2nd largest retailer in the country. Please do not try to say that using fraudulent, altered coupons is not fraud that is punishable by law. Just my two cents. It's too easy to make/save money above the table than to get involved with coupon fraud.

I guess you can try to play dumb and believe that Home Depot hosts free coupon images on external sites, but it may not stand up in front of a jury. Just because they worked in the past does not mean it's ok or that you should make a habit of it. People get so defensive when I point out that coupon manipulation is fraud. I don't know what else to tell you. I'll send you a 50% off Home Depot coupon, valid through 2010 if you like. Just need to photoshops it up for you.

can someone PM me the coupon? the link isn't working! thanks in advance

You are the one guy on this thread I will let complain if some minimart owner tells you there is a minimum $5 purchase to use a credit card. Because, as many FW's note, the minimart owner is "breaking the agreement he signed with Visa/MC".

Just to let everybody know Home Depot coupons now have barcodes on the back that cashiers now have to scan.

..and back to the topic at hand...

anyone know if the ladder will be available again? I could really use one and they were sold out when I tried last time.

Hey idiot, that coupon is the one that all employees get during the holidays, it's not a photoshopped coupon. Get over it.

What is with the "idiot" comment? It is not the same coupon. where is the other side? (you know it is double sided?).

you are just giving people bad advice and on being corrected throwing a tantrum.

Can I say that I know for certain this is incorrect. Not all agreements state this.
