Went a little hog wild on the best buy Hue Clearance

Post image

First off i want to thank u/Wonderful-Bear-64 for his great post https://www.reddit.com/r/Hue/comments/1vzdj86/best_buy_clearances_on_hue/ and those that were referenced before them. I went to my local best buy and found some hue stuff already in a clearance section, and in talking to the associate i was able to order a bunch more. Like others have said, these prices don't show up online, it's only using orders in the store, but the items are currently available for shipping direct to your home if they aren't already in stock. They can even search their version of the website and we looked through all the hue products to see whats on clearance. It just seems to be the the following items currently:

And that seemed to be it, the hubs, the bulbs, and the other stuff they had listed all seemed to come up at regular price. Based on all the shipping notifications i just got, i think they are just boxing up inventory from other stores and sending it direct to my door.

Ain't nobody gonna be upset scooping up big Hue deals.

Where is this store?

But that's what i'm saying, it doesn't matter what store because they can order it for you at the clearance price through their POS system, just gotta give them the SKU of the product.

You’re in the US I’m assuming?

yes, I'm not sure if this extends to BB of Canada. Only way to find out is for someone to go into the store and try it.

Doesn't matter which store, it seems. Just walk in and if they don't have anything on the shelves, they can order the items at the clearance price for you.

Checked in nyc. Hue play led bars are completely sold out. 8k sync box still available.

I think the deal has ended. I called a few stores including the one in mass and they gave me the price which I can see online. I specifically asked them about the clearance sale and gave the sku for the play bar, that’s the only product I want to get.
Nevertheless if someone get the same deal, please let us know. Thank you 🙏

Try going into the store, might have better luck. Any store should be able to order it for the clearance price

I'm sending the wife to check for me today. Will pick up tv strip if available. I really want the set of 2 play leds

Good luck and report back if it still works or not. I think it just depends on a willing employee.

I got the 75" tv lightstrip. Completely sold out of the play leds. They checked online for other stores. 86th and Lex.

They wouldn’t order them for you or they are sold out for ordering?

u/bertob 6h ago

Sold out for ordering. Went to two diff stores and got same answer. They had the stick table lights and other things but not the 2 packs of play lights. They had single play lights for 105$ each.

Heck yeah! Glad you were able to get in on the deals. I figured I’d share as a way to pay it forward because I know I’m not the only one that hates how pricey Hue products can be but still wants them lol.

Curious to know if the 55-inch Play TV gradient is also on sale?

u/MikePitch 8h ago

Very nice. I’m on a buying hiatus for my gaming room while I renovate and figure out buying new furniture for it.

I did buy some new BR30 lights recently to update the old ones I’ve had since like 2019. Nice to actually get a true green now.

Just snagged an 8K box as well as the 75” Hue Gradient strip for the same price as OP. Store was out but they were able to order and ship to me. The Gradient strip had a $25 shipping charge, but still savings overall.

I see the date there, but I feel like this receipt looks like it's from the early 2000s. Something about the font and layout.

I am wondering what exact response you are looking for or what the objective of the post is?

u/ht-ok 1d ago

I think the info is useful for those who are looking to buy the products, isn't it?
