$100.76 after returning or not picking up or canceling the 5.0 XC battery.
This is one of the 3rd QTR deals from the Home Depot promo sale. It is Hackable with the XC5.0 Battery.

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.
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.
How so? They literally set it up to be able to do this.

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.

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
edit: I think HD may have patched "the hack", the deal online is now replaced by a single product: https://www.homedepot.c
Possible it still may work in the store?
