half off mills pride cabinets at home depot

This is what you do, Go to the home depot they will have none in stock. But if they have the display models talk to them about it. Ask them what them when they are getting new ones in. They should direct you to someone in the flooring dept. at least that is what they did for me.

The person will tell you something like they are going to replace the whole mills pride line with another company. Once they say that, ask what will happen to the display model they should say they will sell it too you half off. If not bring it up yourself. They will just compact and dump them if noone buys them.

What will happen, they will have to pull it down, which is a real bitch if it seems stuck and they think it is screwed into the wall see if the bottom moves. If it does Then the cabinet on top of it is screwed onto it threw a couple brackets. Stay there the WHOLE TIME. The disassembly process is pretty ugly, but if like me your just gunna hack the shit outa it and grow in it then you shouldn't really care.

On the same Aisle by the ends pick up the 3/8" angle Shelf Supports for 1.82
there really worth it, there nickel plated steal instead of cheapo transparent plastic. Even if you dont use the shelfs you can use the holes in the to tie the plants down too. They are a tight fit that needs to be hammered in but once there in it should be worth it.

Buy some extra screws because of the crappola disassembly I got the 1-1/4 inch small box exterior for 6.47, there are probably better ones for the job but I was already in there for an hour and a half and was in a bit of a rush.

I also picked up the Safety 1st ToT Lok which is this cool magnetic lock some other guy posted about, you cant see the lock from the outside so less work, just screw it up right inside. I got the 1 key 2 locks on sale for 3.86 the 1 key 4 locks cost 12 or 18 bucks just to give you an idea of the deal. There was only 1 left or I would have picked up 2 of them.

What happened with me, there was no left door on the c-24 but the right door said 117, the left door was slid next too the c-25 and on that door it said c-24 99.99 so I got a c-24 for 50 bucks!!!! I think it was a super sweet deal and I hope a couple of you get the same deal or better.

JUST SO YOU KNOW she said they were going to take down them tonight and throw them in back and store them for a couple days encase someone asked for them, then offer them the same deal.

WARNING: the store has already written off all of them so they wanted to crowbar the thing off when they thought it was stuck and refund me. I had to tell them to check the top cabinet to see if it was fastened to it. I also had to tell them to make sure it didn't come down on there heads when they moved it.... So check it if its in back before you buy it. They broke the kick plate board the very front flush one on the very bottom, taking it down. I'm not totally sure what I am going to do about it, its a cheap replacement but I'm not sure i it needs it.

I am going to bump this because today is probably the last day for this deal. Just called a couple home depots in my area and most of them still had a couple in stock. I hope someone else gets this great deal too.

i dont think c-13 have been in production for a long time but the c-25 is just like it only I think it is a little bigger, the c-24 I got is pretty massive but if you got the space go for it, you can put a couple mothers in one little space and a decent sized grow in the other =)

man if I was working at that home depot I would have probably told you to get lost bro...I've grown in a mills pride and they are not light. They are quite heavy in fact, and you had them tear that off the display and disassemble it right there in front of you...during the Christmas shopping....You got balls.

you can run pretty much any indica you want in a c-whatever...I ran several varieties and didn't have any height issues...just flower at 12" and top if needed, you should be fine. I can understand budgets bro :) I was just imagining those poor guys that had to drag that heavy fucker down from 10 feet in the air...

I have a C-13 and love it. Buy the materials and build one yourself. The white particle board is for sale at Home Depot also. You can build one just like it, but to the specs that you require. This is what I am going to do for a second room.

anyone able to get in on this sweet deal?
hopefully at least one of you guys was able too. From what I gather it is different at every home depot whether or not they are getting rid of them now or later. Sounds like some already have.

OO you probably live within 30 minutes of me ray. I would have tried out what you did but alas, I have no space to put a box that big yet, need to move.
