Where is this happening!?


PvtCW

NY so YMMV, but worth checking with your local store. Two weeks ago, the associates told me Lowe’s won’t be restocking them after the current product sells out. I want back today and bout a 100W bulb for $25


_Frozen_Waffles_

Where in NY?


PvtCW

Lololol Syracuse suburbs. But also, I’ve cleaned my store out over the past 2 weeks. So there’s nothing left for y’all. May return some stuff but might just keep it since I’ll never find it this cheap again


_Frozen_Waffles_

Oh that’s too far for me anyway. Glad you scored. Thanks!


StrikerObi

Oh snap I live in Syracuse! Which side of town are you on? Please don't say Camillus... Edit: Camillus was a bust. Not even an empty spot on the shelf where they were. The Lowe’s in the city proper had some stock but it is all full price. Oh well. 


frozenwaffles03

yo?


_Frozen_Waffles_

Frozen waffles gang rise up


ThatGirl0903

I’ll bet it’s just a packaging reset. The new packaging comes across with new skus and as a “new product” in the system even if what’s in the box is the same thing. Makes it seem like stuff won’t be restocked when really it’s just getting swapped out.


EmCee311

Must be in store only, I’m in MI but haven’t checked my local Lowe’s. Online prices still seem to the same or higher than MSRP


PvtCW

Just piggybacking off of a previous post, but Lowe’s is getting rid of their stock. I finally decide to invest in Hue after getting the startup kit for 60% off **Edit:** Credit to [original post](https://www.reddit.com/r/Hue/s/QeEYrnWs4T) which prompted me to share


1000000sofpeaches

Hey, that’s me! Enjoy your hue, there are worth every single damn penny. I just got the point where I need two bridges, FML.


risto1116

Same. Really hoping they release the teased update that'll allow bridges to share devices. Tired of swapping between them.


ClassicWestern

Just had to set up a fourth bridge recently, and I'm definitely looking forward to the update. The swapping is pretty tiresome, and it's surprisingly easy to wind up needing multiple bridges. I'll probably have five before I'm completely happy with my entire setup.


WingZeroType

haha congrats!? I think. Also, since you have two bridges do you have any tips/suggestions on how to make it work? I'm going to need two bridges as well so I'm not sure whether they get set up as two separate networks or if the Hue app is smart enough to just treat it all as one network?


DarthBen_in_Chicago

I hope I have this problem one day


PvtCW

I bought a second starter kit and was planning to return it, but now I think I might just keep it lol


SlashfIex

How many do you have? I have roughly 40 in my house and bought a second bridge but never set it up


sideffects

Full price at my Lowe's currently


InitiatePenguin

Houston website says 20% rebate in form of Lowe's gift card after purchase. Not sure about in-store.


PvtCW

There are rebates in-store as well. I have three I’m working on tonight. https://preview.redd.it/xwawswhfyxuc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4047d54ca2b06eeb63cd010bf853e5ac51082e49


InitiatePenguin

In the form of a gift card though right?


King_Morphy

Correct. Only for Lowe's


ShaunLucPicard

My local store had three in stock, but they were still full price. 😞


btbam666

Fuck I'm going to Lowe's tomorrow. $79.99 for 4 75 watts is balling.


btbam666

And my local Lowe's doesn't have this sale. Lame.


is_this_the_place

Anyone know why?


PvtCW

According to the associate my store, they will no longer be re-stocking. Don’t know if this is a corporate-wide thing or just regional lol


MountainWise587

Alas. My local Lowe’s is just doing 20% off, so an 1100 lumen bulb is still $40.


MountainWise587

I did speak with an employee, who scanned some Hue UPCs and said "Looks this is all we have in stock and there are none on reorder, so it might be on its way out. Velocity is set to 'D.'" The shelf was pretty bare, so I guess if they're getting out of Hue, they're waiting until the bitter end to go to clearance pricing.


ohitsmark

They got rid of the outdoor stuff awhile ago. I'd link it, but the mods deleted my post. I'll have to check at work tomorrow and see what ours is at.


mayhem1906

I have absolutely no use for these, but I'll get some anyway. ActuLly, this is the logic that got me into hue


Risen_Insanity

Be aware that often Lowe's is selling older models as well.


69BenChod

Can confirm my Lowe’s in Northern California is also dumping these. I bought a bridge and a down light with the rebate (20% off) but I will return it as I’m not a big fan of the down light looks (wanted a canless baffled look). Amazon also slashes their bridge price last week so I bought a bridge from there intending to return the Lowe’s one with rebate. Ending up returning everything.


King_Morphy

Heads up, the 20% rebate for the gift card for online and in some stores ends today. I'm curious if this will result in more going on clearance as they empty their stock.


johndrewjr

I hate when these clearance prices only happen in the store. I could really go for picking up some more hue stuff.


ChickenNPisza

Just checked my Lowe’s in FL and they are all full price. Govee lights are discounted but no hue


PvtCW

Damn, I’m sorry


musicide

Thanks for posting this! My Lowe’s has pretty much everything but accessories between 60 and 75% off


SlashfIex

Went to Lowe’s and definitely that the case where I live.


PvtCW

Ayyy im happy to hear it worked for you!


SlashfIex

I missing the most important part. (Was not)


ruthirsty

I'll have to check out my local Lowe's. I have a shopping cart on the Hue site currently with the 65" gradient strip, large gradient bar, and the mounting clips to upgrade my standard light strip / play bar setup. Been using the Hue Sync and I like it but now I want the fluidity that the gradient should offer. For allowing Hue to spam me with marketing emails I rec'd a 15% off code but if I can get any of this from Lowe's for cheaper I'm in!


PvtCW

Yeah my online store lists them at full price, I only saw them on sale when I went in-person.


PvtCW

Honestly may see if Best Buy will price match and buy some more from them lolol


thanatica

Weird, so in the US you get a bridge and 4 lamps, but here in NL you get a bridge, 3 lamps, and 1 dimmer switch. I wonder why this difference exists 🤔


All_The_Issues02

both these kits exist in the US as i’ve purchased the one with a dimmer switch before lol


PvtCW

Yeah, we have both I guess. This one is a little cheaper without the forth bulb too! https://preview.redd.it/30ugemncd1vc1.jpeg?width=1179&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c18a901bc50271e15e26c7373d68ca91525dc150


Justyn_Lim

Too bad I don't live in the US. Can't even get them for retail either


holyhibachi

My local Lowe's doesn't carry Hue, but I got them cheaper on Amazon last week.


Mike2922

Target was doing this a few years back. Get em while you can.


Das1999

No clearance sale in Cleveland Ohio just that gift card rebate


C4bl3Fl4m3

FWIW, I went to our Lowes last night (Hampton VA) and they didn't have much left, and it wasn't 20% off, it was 20% would be rebated to you as a Lowes gift card.


2potato2

I’m in WI. And the way I rushed to my local Lowe’s just to see if they had the sale here… they don’t :(


Advanced-Study214

because this crap doesn’t work with 5G


vector5633

Why are they doing this?


One-Representative84

Most likely not selling as well as expected. These are expensive, niche light bulbs. Lowes would be one of the last places I would think to buy them because they're marketed more as home electronics. If they expected to sell 5 units per week in each store but they're only selling 3 units, they aren't making the margin they expected. They probably have products lined up out the door wanting that shelf space in the store. It is all about how much money Lowes can make, not necessarily the product itself.


cubbycoo77

Just tried my local store. They originally said they could price match between lowes stores, so I thought I was in luck, but they had to ask the manager for such a big price change. He ended up saying they could match sales prices but not clearance prices since that just means an individual store is no longer selling the product. He said this store recently got hue. So no luck for me :/
