YMMV! Fellowes $80 Shredder for $4.44 @ OfficeDepot.com!

[MuffD]

I would like to give credit first to purduealum91 from FW.

Here are the details of his post:

Here are the steps (at least this is what has worked for me)

1) Go to OfficeDepot.com and add Item #421791 to your cart. The price will be $49.99.

Note: As you can see, per the web site, this shredder has a list price of $160.
I found out while picking up my first (of 3) shredders that this unit normally
sells for $80. The manager was dumbfounded when he saw the total price of $4.75
or so w/tax out the door. The manufacturer model number is 32602-02. To see a
picture of this shredder, go to OfficeMax.com and search for Item #02234451.

2) When checking out, SELECT IN-STORE pickup. Hitting continue to the next screen shows
that the shredder has been reduced to $4.44! Pay tax and you are done!. To think, I
purchased one on Saturday for $70 from OfficeMax. Looks like Ill be making a return
trip with a return .

By the way, I purchased all 3 from the Naperville, IL store on Ridgeland Avenue.

I purchased one for myself with some luggage and added the 15 off of 30 coupon that's floatin around.

YMMV will vary with this because your store will have to have it in stock. I tried 3 of them before I finally found one.

It's supposed to be a pretty cool shredder too.

Couldn't get it to work! Whazzup?

 

[MuffD]

Try to check different stores around you that might have them in stock. It took 3 before I got it to work.

[anomaly]

Got it =)

 

[LoStZ]

thanks alot buddy! managed to get the only one left at my store

Well...don't bother trying this one if you are in Maryland. NONE of the stores will allow you to pick up this deal. I was able to get to the checkout page with the listed price of $4.44; however, the item was NOT added to my shopping cart for pick-up at that location. (P.S. I tried EVERY store listed in Maryland and none had it available for pick-up).

I guess Maryland stores are too chinzy to allow this...bummer! :|

 

[SearchMaster]

I ordered up two for $9.50 out the door. Hopefully they won't give me a hassle when I pick them up.

Great deal...thanks!

I tried to get one in NY & NJ but ALL the stores in those states didn't have any of these in stock or it got raided already .

oh well....

 

[Kanalua]

None in Utah...

DEAL DEAD!

Item no longer listed on site. Damn, I had it set to pick up at a store out of town when I realized there was one more store in town to check. Cleared the cart and whammo! Item no longer listed.

Let me know if anyone can still get to this item. Perhaps they are updating the price.

 

[stingygrrl]

in the orig thread, people are saying they are getting calls from OD cancelling the order

 

[Rhesus]

woohoo! got 2 in CA!

 

[APB]

Just ordered one a couple minutes ago....no problem.

 

[Leejai]

I hope I have no trouble picking up my order later, esp. since I have to drive 45 miles with CA gas prices.

Though I just tried to re-order another one, and received this message:

<b>NOTE: This item is a retail item for pickup only.</b>

Funny how they won't even let me add it to my cart (since we all were going to do in-store pickup anyways)

 

[amnesiac]

I think I got the last one in the Torrance, CA Crossroads store.

 

[Garet Jax]

OOS.

 

[Caveman2001]

The item is now on the OD's website at $4.44 each, however you can't order one because they are saying no stock available.

Good deal for those who got in!

Bummer I missed it.

 

[cyberia]

Keep trying people. I was having a hard time finding two. Then it told me that only one is available at a certain store. Then I tried to add another one at the same store, and it worked. So, I have a pickup order in place for two. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Is it a confetti-cut shredder? That's the category it falls under on OD site.

 

[rcraig]

Can add to cart, but won't let me finish transaction in Macon, GA.
