RIDGID 3,300 psi 3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer $299 (was $749) at Home Depot In-store - YMMV

I was at two Metro Detroit Home Depot stores (Madison Heights and Troy) and both had a the RIDGID 3,300 psi 3 GPM Gas Pressure Washer for $299 in-store (was $749) YMMV. I would have purchased one but picked up a Homelite pressure washer last year.

EDIT - Added Inventory Checker but I have to say your results may vary as both stores metro Detroit Home Depot stores (Madison Heights and Troy, MI) that I was at today had at least the display model. You may even be able to negotiage a lower price on a display model if a part(s), manual and etc. is missing. Then call the manufacturer to indicate you purchased a display model that had missing part(s) and ask that they send you replacement part(s).

EDIT 12/26 - Picked up one at Conference,MI (last one)for $250+tax (missing nozzle kit and wand extender to which they offered 50% of assessories) that still was marker $750. Sales clerk just about fell over.

EDIT 12/26 - Called Ridgid while I was in store to ask if they replaced missing accessories and they said they did not on display models. So you will need to work with the store manager on additional discounts.

There may be RIDGID 3,300 psi, 3 GPM Gas Pressure Washers still available for $299, but perhaps not model # RD80706. It's my understanding that model RD80702 which has a fuel injection system, as well as other comparable models have been showing up either mismarked or marked down at many stores nationally, but not included in an inventory system.

You may find strays not listed in HD's inventory that are boxed and shrink wrapped stored high up on shelves around the Home and Garden area and the Paint Department area (many HD's used to sell pressure washers in the paint department). These may very well scan at the discounted $299 price.

You may find some of these as a display items or formerly display items. They can be a great deal. Of course these may be without some accessories and/or manuals, but you can always call Ridgid's Customer Service and tell them that the items were missing in the box and that HD has no more stock and has discontinued the pressure washer.

My store is about 30 minutes away and shows 2 in stock.

Highly suspect that when I drive up to check out this deal the price will be $749, the same as the online price.
Would it be worth calling your local Home Depot store's home & garden depart to check the price?

Yep, sure makes sense to call them and drive up immediately if they confirm the $299.

Yes, I dislike tipping off store employees that there are bargains they could nail for themselves. But taking a hour plus out of my day on Christmas Eve is no fun.

One store shows two in stock locally. I wonder how the quality is with the Subaru engine?

If it's anything like my Subaru wagon, it will last a long time!

Good deal. Don't forget to bring a harbor freight 20% off coupon or at least a lowe's 10% off. That'll net you another $30-$60 off.

Did you check the price online or in the store? For me the online price was $749 but in store tags were marked down to $299. Also checker showed item not sold at both stores I saw display models in.

It turns out that inventory checker was not accurate for me.
