9 Boxes of GE LED Christmas Lights for $15.83 after $10 off $50 Coupon AND MQ Coupons at LOWES B&M YMMV
9 Boxes at $5.97 each = $53.73
YMMV
Lowes has a promotion where there are $10 off $50 purchase coupons at Lowes right in these specific boxes. You'll see the sign for them advertising this when you are looking at the lights!

$53.73
-$10 Lowes $10 off $50
- $27 in attached Manufacturer Coupons.

Total = $16.73.

Just did this and all went beautifully!

Here are the lights to choose from...but they have more!

Thanks DS7


Also Try
each box has a $10 off $50 coupon inside it, but you can only use ONE $10 off $50 coupon and then 9 $3.00 off manufacturer coupons. But you'll have 8 of the $10 off $50 coupons left for future purchases...so that's $80 in savings for future purchases right there.

Thanks Logician1313

This is a HUGE YMMV!!!

Coupon doesn't scan. Requires override. 10off50 states it can't be used with other coupons or discounts.

Total after coupons is less than $50, so to use that coupon legitimately you'll need more than just these 9 boxes to buy.

Nice deal, OP. Looks like you lucked out on the coupon. It's only supposed to be used on the EnergySmart lights, which are more expensive. The ones you linked to are StayBright. Any trouble getting Lowe's to take the coupons?

Green for the writeup, will have to give this a try!

The coupon also states that it is limited to one purchase. How the heck did you get them to accept 9 coupons at once?

Did you do self-checkout, and, if so, did the coupon scan?

If you buy 9 boxes, you can use 9 coupons. It's One per purchase but I take that as each box is a purchase. And the store just did it fine for me. Usually "cannot be combined with other offers" means you can't use two Manufacturer coupons on the same item. I've never had a problem using a STORE coupon and combining it with a Manufacturer coupon. I guess it could be a YMMV if your store has some aholes, but it went very smoothly for me and I'm a happy camper!

Thanks DS7

I was not able to use both coupons. I was able to use the $3 off coupons, but they wouldn't let me use the 10off50 in conjuction. The coupon wouldn't scan, so he had to manually mark down the lights, so the total was only $28, and the coupon was 10 off 50.

The 10off50 clearly states that it can't be combined with other coupons or discounts. The OP got lucky. It's still a great deal. The lights were half off.

Hey, minor detail. Is the final price $15.83 or $16.73.

A stupid question:

Should the "-$27 Manufacturer Coupons" go before the "Lowes $10 off $50"?

Yes, remember to think of manufacturer coupons like cash. So its $10 off then you pay. Lowes gets paid $3 for each coupon that you give them

can anyone post the power usage of one of these strings of LED lights? (trying to justify the cost difference)
a note: a 100 string of typical white lights runs something in the 28 - 35 watt range if I remember correctly.

thanks


---------------------------
edit: found a review on Amazon for the C9 LED ones 200 lights (4 strands) only draws 12 watts.

8 watts per 100 LED's as listed on the box (but actual draw through a power meter = 3.4 watts)

100 incandescent bulb string = 40.8 watts.

Savings per season @ $.12/kwh = at least $1.42 per string.

He does not have one, it is a copy and paste from SD, at least at SD she corrected the MAN coupon to MQ. If you have not done the deal yourself, your should not state your have.

Shot down on using the $10 off $50 since the $3 coupons took it below $50. Also had to wait 15 minutes for a manager, and a phone call, and finally approval of the $3 coupons.

Still, ~$26 for these lights seems fair. The small white ones are plenty bright. The other ones I purchased were the larger multi-colored 25 set. They're not very bright at all, but they're a lot like an old set I used to have so I like them. Without the $10 coupon working I should have went back and got the better light sets for another $15.

LED's = 50
Total Set Wattage = 3.84 Watts
Socket Spacing = 3 in
Lighted Length (1 set) = 12.2 feet
Max Daisy Chain = 25 sets
fuser plug
2 spare LED's & 2 spare fuses

LED's = 25
Total Set Wattage = 1.92 watts
socket spacing - 6 in
lighted length = 12 feet
...

Butcherboy should be able to post a scan of his receipt as he states that he did it himself. I would be interested in seeing how the cashier made it work for him as the Lowes system applies Lowes coupons as percentages off of each item unless it is manually entered with manager override as a single $10 credit. When a Lowes coupon is entered it will over ride any price changes to previously scanned items back to their original price. I had just that problem when buying cartfuls of Klein tools that were discounted 75% and then trying to use a Lowes $10 off $50. In my case a helpful manager put the coupon through as a single credit, but the cashier couldn't do it without his help.
