im having a hard time thinking of a worse bathrooms to visit than HD Lowes at about 8-9am after all the contractors passing through already had their 2nd and 3rd cup of coffee.

Those bathrooms are destroyed by noon

Depends on what I'm getting/doing. I like Lowes as a company better and HD is pretty liberal but I probably go to HD a little more because of selection.

I almost always go to Home Depot, mostly because there's one in Broussard and I can skip Ambassador Caffery.

Plus the tool section is quite a bit larger.

Here Home Depot has more help and better customer service. Lowe's is more convenient so it's about a wash.

I thought Lowe's used to have better fixtures and appliances, but Home Depot had better power tool brands.

They are pretty much the same these days now.

HD is catered towards men and Lowes is geared towards women. I've been a manager for both.

They really do, I typically don't have to search nearly as hard to find decently straight boards for projects. They also have a good selection of cedar boards, they are pricey though.


Side note..

Anyone here ever use Service Lumber in BR ? They carry cypress and a variety of other stuff. Wondering b/c I'm thinking for my next project i'm gonna upgrade from construction grade lumber.

Home Depot. They do military discount 365 days a year. Lowes is only memorial weekend, 4th of July weekend.

Depends on what I'm shopping for. Most of the time Lowes is better.

It's better to work at Lowe's. For shopping it depends on what you want to buy. Easy to comparison shop if both are available. Customer service in my area is better at Lowe's but that could be because the Lowe's store sells much more than the HD here.

Lowes, unless I need lumber, then HD. Lowes uses cashiers, which means jobs for someone. HD tries to force everyone into using the self checkout.
