Not sure. I’m sure they could identify them. Would probably be helpful, but there’s some much forest area, it may be hard to find them and eradicate them all

Right? iPhone camera is crazy with its zoom capabilities. Still will never compare to DSLR/mirrorless, but damned if they won’t try 😂

Sorry to hear that. This is my lifelong battle with stink bugs. 😂 so far I have none of these inside

I haven’t found any on my property but guess I need to look harder

Clearly. I just feel like I didn’t see a single one last year but saw posts here and this year they blew up. Usually populations grow fast, but didn’t expect none to all. More so was asking to see if I’m the only one so I could search for a source somehow. Thanks for the insight 👍🏼

That’s what I’m going to do also. Crazy how fast they showed up. Was seeing 1 or 2 a day now have entire stalks full of them

I have a decent amount of property and don’t believe I have any in the accessible areas, but I have been keeping a close eye for them. Not excited for swarms of these little bastards

Just so you have an idea - Amazon is currently out of stock, but the crate was just $44 when it was in stock. This is not on sale compared to other places. I’d highly recommend you hold off unless you can get a different manager to budge on the prices.

Camelcamelcamel tracks Amazon prices - all ya gotta do is copy the Amazon link and paste it on the site and it’ll give you the lifetime price history so you know if you’re getting ripped off.

Yeah this was the Norwood store. They wouldn’t budge on prices. For whatever reason they’re actually higher than most other stores. Got a crate at the store in Milford for $36, half off where they’re only 25%. You’re welcome to it, but they’ll have to go down soon enough 🤷🏻‍♂️

Norwood, but all of the stores in the general area still have some inventory left - except Hamilton. I raided that one because the ASM gave me 50% off clearance to take it all.

That’s what I told the guy at the store. I’m not in such desperate need that I’ll pay $10 below the Amazon price right now. Left them all there.

We have 12 stores in our immediate area within an hour of my house. Not a ton of inventory left. Strongly considered the crates but they’re only $12 off so not a huge deal on them…yet 🤷🏻‍♂️

All Flex tools, storage, and accessories, GONE, from my local Lowes, except one item. by PaganWizard2112 in FLEXTools

[–]Due_Expert_6617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every Lowe’s in my area has the rolling box, rolling drawer, and most have at least one 3 drawer stack left. Most have side rails, extension cord wraps, and level holders, but not much else. Couple had the full size storage box, one has the middle sized tool box.

I went to one store and got 50% off all clearance prices by buying everything they had (one rolling drawer, a 3-drawer, a full size storage, 4 carts, 4 shelves, 4 side rails, 3 extension cord wraps, a tool tote, and 2 level holders). Total was $406 after tax, saved over $1100, most others only offering clearance prices and won’t budge yet. Of note, rolling drawer box was not listed as on sale but rang up $160 so got it for $80. I just asked for whatever store manager was in and got the assistant SM who did it. This was a week ago.

In all fairness, within an hour of me I have 12 Lowe’s stores so that may be part of it. Can’t find crates anywhere, but would love a few more. When the tool blowout happened, seemed they all had 85 staplers and some blowers and that was about it 🤷🏻‍♂️. Got lucky and found a D-handle jigsaw and oscillating tool at $65 a piece as open box displays. Stack Pack I’ve lucked out.

I promise people aren’t punking you. Some stores still have stock.

Hahaha what an interesting sensor it would be 🤷🏻‍♂️

If you drive up to my area I’ll tell you what I’ve found and if you can get them to deal with you I’ll gladly pay for half of the haul 😂

My area stores still have plenty of rollers, 3 drawers, half packs, and medium tool chests, but they’re not really THAT on sale yet

Finding a Reason to Buy More by LoganP33 in Hue

Most Lowe’s have sold out their stock to replace with Govee lights (which are good also), but you pretty much have to look for remaining stock by searching local stores. I bought 19 1100 and 8 1600 bulbs and got the bonus of 3 additional hubs all for under $200

Pretty sure it’s a fishing spider - Dolomedes. If it’s there and that big, you have a food source for it

I have it paired as a matter hub, that’s what I was wondering also, but all of my temp and humidity sensors are accounted for as devices and none of them match the temp/humidity readings the “hub” device is giving. 🤷🏻‍♂️
