I’ve always been a Lowe’s guy myself because they seem to have always had more help in the store, but I’ve noticed the last few trips they are short staffed too now. And the ones they have working there don’t know anything about their department.

I mostly shop Lowes, but that is because it is what we have. I prefer they not “help” me while i’m in the storr shopping as 99% or them don’t know jack about what they are selling.

I'm usually looking for something to do something that it wasn't intended to do.
And I usually don't know what it is until I spot it. So they can rarely help me anyway.

Lowes hands down unless your buying paint.

That Behr primer plus paint is really good IMO.

Home Depot.

Home Depot, simply because it`s closer to my house

If you need a 5' piece of trim, you can get one at Home Depot. At Lowes, you have to buy the whole 8' piece of trim. Behr Paint is great from Home Depot, Valspar from Lowes sux! The only thing I buy at Lowes is tools, they stand behind the tools they sell.

Lowes I dont support the home depot after they made the aldeer boycott list a couple yrs ago

Lowe’s except paint or plumbing (Lowe’s plumbing department is terrible).

anything heavy that I will need help loading I get from Home Depot. Lowes help sux.

I bought 30 8" cement blocks from HD. Parked by the stack, went in and paid, they sent three guys out to load it for me.

Lowes, not so much. SOBs will stand there and watch you load stuff even after you ask for help.

They're equal distance for me(Tigertown). Typically I'll go to Home Depot.

Usually Lowes because it's more convenient to my house. I was there today. It was a lot more expensive than my walmart trip but much quicker.

A guy offered to help me load lumber on the cart. I don't want their help doing that. EVER. Now concrete blocks? Yeah they can help, but they are usually nowhere to be found then.

Home depot all the way..big difference in quality as well....our lowes aint worth a flitter..cant find nothin or anybody to help look for your nothing.

Used to be Lowes, Now, Home Depot because they have the self checkout and rarely a line. Lowes will have one register out of 20 open, if they had self checkout I would go there more often.

It’s a trick question. The answer is neither.
Much, much better service at your locally owned stores.

Whoever is cheaper. I find lowes cheaper on electrical and wood. Lowes also has 10% off pro accounts from time to time vs the normal 5%

I agree with this statement. Probably for different reasons though.

I'm always creating some crazy game or some sort of cheap way to fix something around the church for youth ministry stuff, anytime someone asks if I need help and I explain it to them, they just stare at me.

I go to Lowe's, it is a lot closer, and I can get my 10% military discount also.

I use Home Depot. I like their Military Discount program better and the Lowe’s in Montgomery is ALWAYS short staffed.

I have a PhD in redneck engineering. So I'm usually building something, rebuilding something, or fixing something in a way that isn't found in any operating manual.
