ng today, Bryan Baeumler was giving a presentation, short funny but
interesting talk, Q&A session, then autographs. I didn't stay for the
autograph, too many in the line, wandered around the store, much nicer
and a better selection than the local Home Depot or Rona store. --
Froz... The system will be down for 10 days for preventive
maintenance.

I find Lowes cleaner and better organized and stocked. It is more
geared to the home owner, more typical retail. Home Depot is a bit
more geared towards contractors. At least in my experience and pretty
consistent acros the dozen or so different store sites I frequent.


THEY'RE (lowes, hd, menards...) all the same and THEY'RE CRAP. No quality,
very little knowledge -- the little girl stocking hardware didn't know what
a stove bolt was.
NO quality at all especially lumber.
Lowes ran both ACE and True Value out of business here.
Now Menards is going to build across the street from Lowes.
MORE CRAP.
I HATE EM ALL.
thank you I do feel much better now.
BUT THEY"RE STILL CRAP.!!!!


Thanks for you ignorant replay.
