Got me a Milwaukee Packout set today (Monday). Man, it is awesome. It is/was on sale at Home Depot for $298.00. One of those one time buy things. I waited till the 18 month no interest promo started this week. I went on Sunday to get one at the Burnaby, Henning Drive location. All sold out, but their inventory shows they had 7. Terminal location had 4, and North Surrey had 8. All other locations were a no go. I tried all locations from Vancouver to White Rock and Abbotsford. All of them were out of stock, even though some showed stock. A lady at the Henning Drive service counter says they have to be in the store somewhere. She said they would put an APB on them and call me when they find it. Meanwhile, I decide to call the Chilliwack location. Sure enough, they have three. I had one put on hold and told the people at the Henning Drive location to call me as soon as they find it. They never called me back, so I drove out to Chilliwack to get one. I also found other Black Friday items that were sold out at the other locations, so it was worth the trip. One hour after I get back from Chilliwack, I get a call from the Henning Drive location that they found the missing pallet.............. If anyone is looking to get a set, they still have two or three sets at the Henning Drive location.

BTW, the Chilliwack Home Depot is one of the nicer Home Depots I've been to. Cheerful, laid back staff AND, they all spoke english I could actually understand.
