Orbit B-Hyve Indoor Timer 8-Station Wi-Fi Smart Irrigation Timer for $36. As is always the case with Lowe's bargains, YMMV, in-store only. MSRP is $80. Even if you don't plan to use wifi or the smart features, $36 for an 8 station timer is fair dinkum.
Lowe's website, and Brickseek show stocking stores at full price, but the two stores I visited both had them in stock, marked down to $35.97. So, ya, this is one of those you'll have to visit the store to check. But at least you can use BS to choose which store(s) to visit. Sure wish BS and Lowe's would get together to find a solution for the stock/price issue they've been having for a couple months now.

Helpful hint-check the program periodically if you're on vacation. If your house loses power, and the WiFi goes down...when it comes back on, the BHyve may not automatically reconnect.
And...your grass and bushes may not be real happy. 😁
I have it . If you don't connect to Wi-Fi , you can manually configure the timers on the device it self (using Bluetooth or directly on the device)
I like it over all .

Unfortunately it was full price in the store as well…
Which store in TX? I stay in the north Dallas area...
Edit: Visited 3 different Lowes in the area and all were full price.
Any device without an outside moisture meter I would not trust for "smart" automatic watering. But being able to remotely control from your phone is very nice compared to the old analog Rainbird controllers..
