I'm doing a basement remodel and went to the Middletown store.Prices on half the stuff I needed were not listed.Being in the construction trades I can figure out most on my own but what I really needed was the price of insulation per sq.ft. for the R19 and of course it was the only one without its info tag.Could not get anyone to help.

First instinct was to go to Lowes up in Dartmouth but happened to be on the Island at the time.Ended up at Lowes anyway and everything was squared away in 10mins.And in each department there was someone there to ask if I needed any help.

Depot and Lowes are like night and day.Never will I walk into a Depot again.

Btw real Sudafed works!

Home Depot started out strong, but they have since gone way downhill. Quality of many items is complete crap, their millwork is crap, they don't hire people with much real knowledge like they used to.

Home Depot is the cheapo depot..........Stopped into the Brockton store, Cresant Street, for a bulkhead. Didin't have them, not one. Sent me to Avon, they had one of each size, but not the extentions for the 84" length bulkhead.

Norman try the Sudafed nighttime...don't have the pseudoephedrine in it but whatever it does is PISSER.

I felt your grump last week. Sick for 4 days.

Lowes refused to match hd price or even give me a discount on some stone for me 2 years ago with it literally sitting in my driveway. All 2600 pieces of it. So I took it all back in 2 loads and plunked it down at their return counter...on 4 carts. Every piece had to be handled all over again to put it back on pallets..probably took 3-4 hours labor

The worst part is the HD stone was thicker, same manufacturer and color! Better product, less price and they wouldn't give me any consideration! Manager said because it wasn't exactly identical they wouldn't do anything. I told the manager his attitude sucked and I'd never shop in there again and never been back since. Went and bought the same stone from hd and they delivered it for me the next day. $6000 of stone. Go figure.

They all suck.
