Yeah..it's great but the parking lot is screwed up. We all have to funnel in/out a single small driveway....

Too big, too hard to get in and out, too tough to find hard to categorize items. I'd rather hit a smaller hardware store where the employees know where everything is and I can get what I need quickly and easily. Paying a little more is worth it, I'll only hit Home Depot for stuff that I can't get anywhere else.

I go to Home Depot for most things as they are pretty close to where I live.

However, I just go to the local lumber yard when I need to. Home Depots wood definitely does suck.

I have 3 home Depots & 2 Lowes within 10 miles of my house, I'm usually @ one of them @ least once a week. Just bought 5 bags of no float cyprus mulch, some landscaping fabric/staples @ the closest Home Depot last night...

I need to buy some clipped head nails & some air tool attachments this week.

Not a big fan of the place. Lately I have had to go to Ace to find what I want.

Both Lowe's stores near me pale in comparison to the nearby Home Depot.

I really get sick feeling whenever HD doesn't have something....and I then have to visit Lowes.
