I was bored last night and went through some of the orders. Here's some info I picked up.

1. There were over 10,000 orders placed.
2. From what I saw so far, about 95% of them still say in process, about 4% were cancelled, and a few other say either picked up or shipped.
3. There were some legit orders for random stuff that also still say in process, so there is still hope...

Quite..
Though in all fairness, I probably only went through about 100-150 orders, but skipped back to the first order to see roughly how many were placed (assuming they are in order...). I made my calculations based on that.

When you go online by view details you can see from where it was shipped.
If you don't mind providing the info.

Probably this
I just went through like 50 random orders with https://www.lowes.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/LowesFindOrders just start with your order and then just keep adding up and you'll see nobody got nothing and ppl ordered a lot so good luck but dont hold your breath

From going through the orders. You can search by order number. I checked my order number and checked a bunch of the orders before and after mine.

Sorry for the noob question- what is SD?
Slick deals. It is a deals website.

I doubt that information is relevant. It would appear that Lowe's is not equipped to deal with a glitch of this magnitude. My guess is that orders need to be manually cancelled by the individual warehouse picker, and this is the reason why cancellations are coming in for some people, albeit slowly. Since warehouse pickers are usually at the lower end of the intelligence spectrum, some orders are slipping through and getting shipped.

SD members have reported that corporate had to call each and every store to notify them of this glitch. This speaks volumes about their technical infrastructure.

In short, your order will say "processing" until the picker cancels it.
