Poinsettia for the win! Wreaths are a bit more but we have a couple artificial ones from Walmart clearance a few years back so she probably won't need anyhow. I feel like batteries were cheaper elsewhere but need to find and compare brands/ count

This was not worth the wait. No batteries (I guess the takeaway is to get the HDX ones now, or hit Menards on BF), and the 2-gallon bucket is discounted a whole 50 cents. Be careful, HD, you now might only make 300% profit on that...

Yes, the Energizer. I was looking at the lesser brands for the toys kids put batteries on for 1 week and then completely forget about the toy for a year when the battery won't work anymore, anyway. Menards had batteries and I think Costco has Duracell. But also HD has the HDX batteries (60 count, I think; maybe 48) on sale now for decent price.

Those HDX have horrible reviews of corrosion in package (a few months after purchase) even though overall is pretty high, I'd hate to have them ruin devices to save a few bucks. Replacing more often wouldn't have been an issue but damage is.

So what I'm seeing is I should get the Ryobi deals I was looking at today. Nothing better on those for what I need/can use in the BF sale. Might add the Grinch inflatables to my collection for $20 each if they still have them when I get over there (after I battle Target). Otherwise, yeah... Meh...

Side note: I've not had corrosion issues with the HDX batteries myself. I use them in my NASCAR scanner and only need to replace them about once/race weekend. For reference, I go to four race weekends/year and they are each a couple to a few months apart from each other. [I do not remove them in between races (though maybe I should).] YMMV.

That's a good price on the 27 gal totes if you need them.

I was thinking the same thing.  I'm thinking about getting them for our garage.  Our organization uses them for storage in an outdoor unit.  They seems to hold up well over these last 4 years.  I don't think they are waterproof which is what I need in our basement due to flooding issues in our area.  We have the Rubbermaid Roughneck totes and they are waterproof.  

 

I think we are going to get the DeWalt 12 Ah Battery and the DeWalt leaf blower bundle. 

 

Thanks for the reminder about batteries.  I haven't done any pricing yet.
