Big box store pricing.
The question of who has the best prices often come sup here, it is Home
Depot or Lowes. Today, I had reason to be on both stores and checked the
price of an item I bought locally earlier this morning.
Taco circulator pump
Home Depot $86
Lowes $79
Supply New England $61.48
I still wonder why people line up at the big box stores thinking they are
saving a lot of money. If it was Sunday and I needed that part that day to
get the heat back on, I'd have paid it, but given the opportunity to go
elsewhere, it pays to do so.
