We lived in Tampa for 23 years and I must say, I preferred Lowe's as the store was much more pleasant, prices were generally better and I could always get help when needed. Now that we live in TV I find I prefer Home Depot for the same reasons I favored Lowe's in the Tampa area. Also Home Depot is much closer and convenient for me. A previous contributer mentioned the Lowe's emphasis on Spanish as being a negative to that person. I must say I agree. I resent everything being posted in Spanish. This country speaks English. An immigrant has to prove they understand and speak English when they apply for citizenship. Why does Lowes have to put everything in Spanish? This is discrimination. What about all those legal immigrants from Germany, France, Japan, etc.? If I lived and worked in France, I would not expect everything to be in English. I would have to learn enough French to get along in daily living.
