I've essentially given up on Home Depot. The last straw was going in once for furnace filters, 20 x 25, probably the most common size. None in stock. I talked to...

My Home Depot is the same way. The last time I was in there I stopped at the service desk and asked where a product called "Dishwasher Magic" might be located. With a wave of her hand in the general direction she said "somewhere in chemicals." She didn't even give me an aisle number. It wasn't there. I found what I was looking for in appliances.

Another time I went in and asked about a replacement skylight. The guy actually told me I'd have to know the brand of skylight before they could help me. I went to the real lumber yard and the guy said "yeah sure lady" and gave me 3 different books to look at different styles of skylights from several manufacturers.

One time I asked the lady working in the kitchen cabinet department where the cabinet hardware was and she told me "somewhere in hardware." She couldn't even give me the aisle number.

I hate going there. So unless it's something I absolutely can not find anywhere else I don't.

At least in this Wal-Mart they'll give you an idea of which aisle they think it should be located in.
