Home Depot Stores Run Low on Storm Supplies

Generators, flashlights and batteries disappearing from store shelves.

Shoppers at Home Depot stores in search of flashlights, chainsaws, generators and batteries are already finding short supplies across the region.

“We’ve sold out of all generators,” said Commack store supervisor Miguel Pichardo on Wednesday evening.

As of Thursday, a store associate said the store had received an additional shipment of 10 generators Thursday afternoon and was sold out within 10 minutes of getting them.

The news is just as bad at Home Depot stores in Huntington, Deer Park, Smithtown, Riverhead, Central Islip, Syosset and Bayshore and Selden, where supplies of generators had run out as well.

The Commack location had also sold out of C and D batteries and flashlights as of Thursday afternoon.

Stay tuned for updates. And if you find your local Home Deport is out of supplies, comment below or let us know.

Apparently you are not the only one this is happening to. From what I understand if these signs areRead More on a main drag somehow they are disappearing in the middle of the night. Hmmm, now I wonder who or what organization could be doing this illegal act? I'm not going to make an educated guess who could be involverd in this deed but I think if Kings Parkers do some research they are smart enough to figure out who does not want the real facts of the "Uplands Project" to come to light. Displaying these signs is a way of making the public aware of the atrocity of this project. Questions will then be asked. Making a night run to remove them is, at the least, a cowardly act that should be publicized every time it occurs!

That's funny, I spend a small fortune for school supplies for my kids. I am also asked to buy extraRead More for the kids who don't have., which I gladly do. The "society letting kids down" comment is a little over the top!!
