The price on the linked page is currently showing:

ITEM 36222-4VGA

$4.99



But, there is a disclaimer on each page that says, "Prices on our website may or may not be current prices in our stores"


Did you buy an in-store special of $2.99 ?

Take Care,

No but if you happen to find something less expensive on the website, print it out and take it to the store. They have to price match their website. I do it all the time.

Just so you guys know, after using the hole saw about 7 or 8 times, it becomes quite dull
I went to Lowes and bought http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?action=p ... lpage=none
It may not be as inexpensive but with the ventilation holes at the side, it leaves room for the sawdust to escape and making it easier to cut through wood

I use cheap hole saws, haven't found any better locally yet. One way to prevent them from overheating and keep them going, is drilling a few holes right where the circle comes, so the sawdust does not accumulate but just falls through the hole. Doesn't work if you need a very neat hole, but otherwise it works fine.

That's how I do it and I cut MANY, MANY holes with one saw

I use a router and route from a template made out of scrap hardboard or plywood.

This produces a machined edge.
