Just the part where you said they only give 10-15 minutes to cancel ship-to-home items.
I have at least 5 hack items that I cancelled 30 minutes afterward on ship-to-home.
It always used to work out either way as long as you didn't wait over 45 minutes to cancel shipped items. Now apparently HD has recently changed that too.
Seems like wasted time and money going to the store to pick up when HD delivers next day 99% of the time. Order item you want to keep for shipping and don't even bother with the instore item.

Normally that would be the case for when you didn't need the item right away.
In my case, most of the 'keeper' items I needed right away, with several picked up and used the same day.
Like the grinder. I need one to use tomorrow. If shipped it won't be here till Friday. So I'll pick it up this evening.

Add/Edit:
I just looked up the HD ship to home cancellation policy (pic attached).
Apparently the 45 minute after order deadline is still in effect, but not on 'combo promo' items.
That's why I questioned the fact that BOTH the battery (ship to home) and the grinder (store pickup) said "Ineligible for cancellation" on my order immediately after placing the order. The 'promo combo' apparently made them immediately listed as 'ineligible for cancellation' on the online order itself and nixxing the 45 minute allowance.

Idk. I ordered a Ryobi inflator last week, by itself, for ship to home and I checked my order 10 min later and was going to cancel and go get it at the store and it was already ineligible.

Does anybody know what the difference is between this grinder and the 2780-20? I still have the 2780-20, and was wondering if I should sell that one to get this grinder. Either way, great deal

Why? Home depot makes out on top if you return the battery cuz later on they can sell the battery at full retail to someone else who doesnt know better. They allow it for a reason otherwise they would fix it. They know what they are doing

Dead? The link goes to tool only for $179. Or I totally missed the "hack" part?

Was this tool removed from the M18 Free 5.0 battery promo? I thought the promo went for a few more months..

edit: I think HD may have patched "the hack", the deal online is now replaced by a single product: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Milwa.../317084031

Possible it still may work in the store?
