I want to share with you, another happy experience while shopping at HOME DEPOT. I was in the garden section to purchase a large number, of very heavy bags of mulch.Due to my knee replacements, I should not lift over 20 lbs. A very nice lady, by the name of connie, helped me load up, check out, and place in my suv. She shook my hand, and thanked me for shopping at HOME DEPOT. Why would I ever ROAM when I can get super prices and great service at HOME.

Hi Paul, thank you for sharing a comment about Home Depot’s in Colorado. It’s it is interesting to hear that Home Depot’s are clearer and more organized in Colorado. Why do you think the quality of Home Depot’s varies so much?

I did recently revisit my local Home Depot. I found it to be much less crowded than it had been in the past. While that might not be good for business, it was a more pleasant shopping experience. The employees also seemed much more willing to help and even offered to assist customers when they looked confused.

Has Home Depot been taking efforts at the corporate level to improve stores and the customer experience?

Sorry to everyone who had a bad experience. Although if you base your assumptions on only one of out 2200 stores, then I can see your experience being horrible. Your local store should have taken care of you.

We try everyday to help customers. My store is clean and organized. We don’t always succeed but we try hard. If you are ever in Colorado come check out our HD stores. They are much better than in other places!

[…] I’m planning to write Home Depot Canada to share the thoughts. I don’t know if I should tell them about my blog or not. I really want them to restore my faith but then, I’m getting a better understanding of how bad the company’s experience has gotten. […]

The Lowe’s experience is pretty darned good. I find the Home Depot packed with merchandise, aka cluttered, lookin’ 1993 in 2006.

WEB sold off his HD shares? I guess I haven’t been following BRK closely as of late. Quite frankly, I am not surprised. I was more surprised when BRK disclosed they had bought HD. I also expressed doubts about WMT back in Dec last year. I wonder if WEB still likes WMT.

Home Depot Inc Investor Shopping Experiences…

I recently had a terrible shopping experience at both Home Depot Online and at my local Home Depot (HD) store. Apparently, I’m not the only investor this has happened to. Maybe Buffett got the same treatment from Home Depot and that is why sold his s…
