There’s something wrong with Lowe’s ads on Google where they’re offering tool deals that don’t exist.
I ran into this myself earlier, and then started seeing social media posts complaining about the same.
The ads seem to be offering $100 discounts on many different types of Dewalt cordless power tools.

But when you visit the page, such as for the Dewalt 20V Max DCF870 hydraulic quiet impact driver, the tools are full-price.

Interestingly, I’m seeing non-existent $100 discount on many Dewalt cordless power tools.
It says “price at checkout,” but the savings do not appear at checkout.

For Bosch, the Lowe’s ads are promising a 20% discount. But as with the Dewalt “deal,” you get to checkout and there are no savings.
This kind of thing has been happening with other retailers, usually when there’s an active coupon promo or offer.
But in this case, I can’t even see where the confusion is coming from.

This could be a Google bug, or a Lowe’s bug, or maybe the responsibility is shared. I assume it’s a glitch of some kind and that nobody is doing it intentionally.
If you come across this before it gets fixed, don’t get your hopes up.
I want to say that this isn’t a big deal, but then I realized it happens so much with various retailers that I got used to it.

I see that Acme is offering some DeWalt (and other) kits at 12 % off today.

Not sure about any limits – but earlier this weekend they had a 15% off on Milwaukee – with a $200 max savings limit

Seems very bait and switch to me. I wonder if anyone has managed to get Lowes to honor the advertised price. I’d love to get the quiet impact for that price. Definitely a too good to be true deal.

If it’s not intentional, it still might be quite close to it; as it’s blatantly false advertising, and it is working.
