It pays to be a bad speller

Colleague of mine just decided to switch from Wink to Hubitat. So he went on eBay this morning to price out used Caseta Pro Bridges.

Except he misspelled Caseta and searched from "Casetta Pro Bridge". Found a brand-new one for $44 and $10.40 shipping.

Take that Scripps-Howard Spelling Bee!

So I should probably wait until your colleague posts this find to like the post. Too bad you stole his/or her thunder. :wink:

That's ok - he steals my ■■■■ all the time at work.

He's not on community.hubitat.com yet. But I'm sure he'll join soon to get his stuff migrated over .....

So you have a bit of catching up to do.

It also pays to pay attention while walking thru Home Depot! I recently went to ours and noticed Hue starter kits on clearance!? 4 bulb color starter kits were marked like 76$. And that’s what I was able to score it for, more than half off! Ultimately Home Depot had them tagged wrong, thats what they told me, yet they honored the sticker price. Retail was 199$ tho amazon has them at like 150$ ish I think.

It will search ebay for mispelled stuff you put in a search box

Try putting: ‘Mercedes’ in the box and see what I mean
