Question : Lowes or Home Depot? Lowes recently came to Town is it worth checking out?
My local hardware chain sold out to Home Depot last year. I miss getting help from knoweldgable people you want to help you find things. I now know my way around the Home Depot and think there prices are fine so I am wondering if the service is better at Lowes or if there is another reason to go out of my way to shop there.

All Answers: Answer #1The stores are comparable. I usually shop at Lowe's simply because it is closer. Exception: ifI am buying wire, I do Home Depot; Lowe's doesn'tknow how to sell the stuff.

Although they both overlap each other, Home Depotis a little more contractor oriented. Lowe'sleans a little more towards DIY type service. just go and check them out and decide which youlike the best. Personally I go to both, dependson what I feel like at any given time. They areboth with in a couple of blocks of each other. Ithink they plan it that way.

In our city, Lowe's was the only hardware chain,and acted like it. You couldn't get waited on.Then along came Home Depot a few blocks away, andthey were really good about customer service.Shortly, Lowe's changed their ways, and Home Depotcustomer service went downhill as corporateleadership changed and associates were thinnnedout so that now there are very few sales people towait on anybody, and Lowe's keeps getting better.I am sure it is different in other cities. Iusually go to Lowe's, even tho my husband works atHome Depot.

Low es is better for the most part.Home Depotservice is not very good any more.Lowes has thebest close out sales since they like to keep theirstore really clean.If you shop at the end of theseason you can get extremely good deals on closeout building supplies.I picked up windows andstorm doors for $ 5.00 at Lowes b4.

Answer #5
They are pretty much the same. I find that Lowe'sruns more sales than Home Depot does. The onething that gets on my nerves about Lowe's is youHAVE to check yourself out at the cash register. Whenever I go in there I am usually spending agreat deal of money and then to have to check myownself out without any type of service reallychaps my hide.Good luck!
