Thanks for the heads up, I am going to make a HD run tomorrow. This spring is Tech Flipmas. The LIFX White 800 bulbs from Walmart are easy money. The Belkin Wemo Switch plugs are flip well, but the older models are hard to come by.

This is the latest update. I just stocked up on GE Z wave devices to pair with Wink. Most stores have been cleared out from what I can tell, and the clearance prices do vary greatly between stores. Walmart's app is your best friend for saving time and miles. This is a great opportunity to start your smart home if anyone is borderline between buying and not buying devices.

I found two Ring Home Security Kits locally and that was it. One HD locally has not started clearance pricing on the Ring devices. I find it interesting between both HD and Walmart and how the local stores for each can vary a bit in pricing.

Those kits are excellent value. I had purchased 2 and 2 stickup cams at previous clearance. Receipt was $990. Did a return/rebuy with a 10% off coupon, and ended up paying $297!

No clearance on the GE switches around me. Would have loved to finally swap out all of my Tapt switches.

That's great. Where did you land the coupon?

I skimmed over Walmart's app to check other stores, and only one in my area has GE devices half off. That store seems to have an advanced clearance going on compared to the rest. I plan to keep all of the devices I scored except for the in-wall switch and in-wall dimmers (2 of each). I currently live in a rental, and I am only interested in portable devices. If you're interested, I would be glad to help you out, otherwise I'll post these on ebay.

Link to Switch. I paid $19 per switch

Link to Dimmer. I paid $21 per Dimmer

Email sent with two pics included. I'll consider your offer some more, but I think I've accumulated enough in the last two weeks.

Anybody have or use a Wink compatible smart vent (register) or damper?

My media closet calls for a duct to be run to it, but I'd like to be able to shut off the air flow to this "room" if the heater is on.

No, but some Lowes had some sizes of Keen vents on clearance a few weeks back.

Canary and ring both dropped to $49 at select Walmart. None around BR available. Canary was $50 at very few HD, but they should have pennied out by now.

And CAD, the essential isn't going for $185 on ebay


Eta: I've recently purchased 2 canaries on ebay for a total of $40 shipped. They are sold as account locked/parts only, but I've had no issue getting Canary to transfer them to me
