Deal Details
Not sure exactly how I did it, but I just loaded my cart with "buy more save more" labeled items and added the compressor. I made everything beside compressor 'Ship to Home' and then selectively deleted items until % on compressor changed to 30% ($100 off). It will incrementally change from 9%-30% as you make the deletions. Then go in and cancel the ship to home items and pick compressor up at store as needed. Solid deal on this compressor.

EDIT: see photo posted to see what was added to cart

Nice! Just figured out if you swap to a $151 item (closest is the hackzall for $159) you can get down even further with the ratio of the discount. $245.95 and I think I might bite!

he just means you can return items, for a clearly defined amount, that been written on HD receipts forever.

so, yeah, in no way a hack.
it's just returning stuff you don't want for a prorated value, to save on the thing you want.

Showing not available for pickup or delivery, only scheduled delivery. Anyone else seeing that?

Edit- had to change preferences to my store and surrounding stores for in store pickup.

man, the math skills in this country...

the deal here is to get as close to 500$, to get the 150$ off and maximize the percentage saved... 30% is what you're looking for.

Compressor is 349$
349 - 500 = 151$, so look for an item that's closest to 151 without going under...
Hackzall is 159$, this will net you 30% savings on both items.

no magic to it, no adding multiple items and removed until you achieve something awesome. just some simple grade-school math Wink


edit:
this is also a repost of the Buy More Save More thread that was posted earlier this month, really don't need a thread for every combo...

haha, nope that would be a hack...
SD has widened "hack" to include "actually reading the clearly printed values on receipts" Wink

I would also like this but it just seems so limited in what it can do. All my stuff is Milwaukee cordless. Got the inflator too. Yeah can't justify it. I think this was created for people who already have pneumatic tools but don't want a loud compressor. Makes sense for them. $250 is nice for them.
