Ditto. I try to shop my local lumber yard/hardware store first. Then I try Lowes. Only go to Home Depot if I have no other place to go.
It is amazing to me that any business entity would publicly involve itself with any political issue—let alone the hot button of homsexuality. Didn’t Mariott come out publicly to support the Gay Community? And, then, of course, there is Disney. Walt must be turning in his grave.
I eshew them all.
I shop at True Value hardware and usually find exactly what I need.
