The wife wanted to make a stop at Lowe’s this weekend.

 

While there, I gotta hit the can.  #2-style.  And what’s one to do to pass the time?  ZOMG FREE WIFI!!1!

 

I hop on, agree to their “Terms of Service” and begin surfing….”Let’s see what’s up on Teh TIA”….

 

“Please agree to our Terms of Service”.

 

Well, that’s weird…maybe I didn’t hit accept…accept again…

 

TIA FTW!

 

“Please agree to our Terms of Service”.

 

WTF.

 

Accept again.

 

TIA.

 

“Please agree to our Terms of Service”.

 

GRRRRRRRR

 

Accept AGAIN.

 

Wait…maybe they only allow me on The Lowe’s site while in store….nope, Fantasty Football Forum fires up, as does ESPN…even Home Depot was accesible, but no TIA.

 

Jerks.

Same here there customer service sucks!!!!

I can’t say too much bad about Lowes. I have got a couple good deals on tools because one of their expert employees put the sale stickers on the wrong tool! Other than that I rarely go there unless they have a Bosch tool in stock that I want. With the exception of Bosch on hand HD has the better selection of good brands. I wish HD would give out free popcorn though like Rural King, then I would be in Heaven!

Our Lowe’s isn’t all that bad either but its more of a last resort for me too…..our HD is 5 minutes from my house and they sell Milwaukee so that works for me.

I don’t mind Lowes. The only think that sucks is they don’t have Milwaukee 🙁

Dang, all we have is free water.

The lady told me today that our Home Depot is not going to hire full time positions anymore. Not sure if that is just our location or everywhere but that should really help getting quality and knowledgeable employees.[emoji24]

I’m curious to hear what he says. I’m assuming if it is true it would allow them to pay less for benefits to employees but not sure.

Lowes is perfect for parking your truck in the there parking lot and then walk to HD 🙂

comp56Member since Sep 2014

never been in a lowes, probably because we don’t have one and I don’t see one coming here 

DR99Member since Nov 2012

Lowes has a few stores in Canada but not nearly as many as HD.

Charles HarrisMember since Apr 2015

I go to lowes all the time. The only reason I go there is because lowes is 5 mins away and Home Depot is 30 mins.

I wish they would build a Home Depot closer to me.

Mondo1310Member since Jun 2015

Home Depot is best plus they my favorite band Milwaukee!!!!!!!

That’s funny…..

NicholasShetleyMember since Nov 2013

I have looked at the forum while in my lowes before. Our newest Home Depot is 45 minutes away unfortunately. My lowes doesn’t have much in the way of tools. HD is just so much better for tools of any kind to me, they have better brands and better selection.

Have a Lowes and a HD 5 min from my house. Lowes has a better lawn and garden section. That’s about it.

Hey they have good toilets in the bathrooms too but yea that’s about it..Lmao

ChrisMember since Jun 2015

I prefer HD as far as tools go, they have more brands that I prefer.

 

I hate Lowe’s wifi, it is so slow I avoid using it and just stay on my 4g.

 

I highly doubt HD is going to stop hiring full time employees. There is no way they can really operate without full time employees.

hathatylMember since Sep 2013

My Lowes has the occasional deals like we were talking about in the HD thread.  The open box and discount tools are on top of the tool display shelves,  and sometimes in the green racks in the middle of the isles.

I’ve been kind of avoiding my Lowes lately. The CS has generally sucked. I still think they have better quality lumber and a decent garden center but that is really about it for me.

LastOfTheVee8sMember since Aug 2015

I don’t have any problems with lowes but HD is right around the corner so that is where most of my purchases are.

krutonMember since Jun 2015

I’m heading to Lowe’s this afternoon, unfortunately my wife is going too so the trip through the tool department will be very short and not much fun!
