Now I know why I will NEVER shop at Homedepot

[kimbutgar]

It is my last resort. I haven’t spent money there in years. Recently after checking Lowe’s and grrr Home Depot for a replacement light for my kitchen I found the size at a small local hardware store. But this poag strengthens my reserve to NEVER a shop there again. And at my local Lowe’s a few months they lost all the day labors and I saw some guys hiding under cars!I’ve hired these gig workers a few times in my senior move management job doing clear outs. They were nice hardworking people.

1. Home Depots are more convenient to use than 4-by-forty Cattle Cars

Speer used to such efficiency. But this is the administration of convenience over efficiency, even when it cuts into their exile of minorities.

2. Haven't been in one since I found out the co-founder was a big Trumper

Bernie Marcus is deceased now but the boycott continues.

4. You mean Home Deport

At least that’s how the ICE goons refer to the place.

5. Good one!

I had to check that I didn’t misspell Home Depot. But I like Home deport!

7. I have not bought at home despot since a friend died after an "accident"

at the local home deport many years ago. She was treated worse than the mcd's "hot coffee" victim, and died of her injuries. I am fortunate in having several local options available to me.

Several years ago, I persuaded a friend likewise after I explained how they screw over the vendors of their live plants, as we watched them toss hundreds of dollars worth of plants into the trash.

8. Keep small business alive

If you are lucky enough to have any independent or small hardware stores left, consider going to them first before they are eaten up by big box stores. A hundred year old business is now part of the Ace Hardware franchise but they still keep their name, there are 2 other truly independent hardware stores in my city. I had to break the habit of Home Depot first and go to them now.

11. The one local hardware store near where I live closed at the beginning of the year

I was on the other part of my city and went to this small local hardware store across from where I lived 33 years ago.
And found the lights I needed.
