“I’m more surprised to find out that there is a Home Depot in NYC.”

Yea, you’d think that the “creative types” living in NYC wouldn’t find much use for a Home Depot. How could they EVER TOLERATE getting their hands dirty?

But what might even surprise you more is that they seem to charge EXACTLY the same prices as they do here in Texas, at least based on my comparison of the things that I often buy.

It is a nice store, oriented towards apartment living. They have a lot of fancy kitchen sinks and cabinets, bathroom tile and bathtubs, that sort of thing.

The renovation industry in New York is huge. In my building, the super runs a small business on the side doing up apartments. Any apartment owner in the building who wants his bathroom or kitchen redone goes with this guy to Home Depot, picks out the stuff he wants, and then the super’s workmen install it. He completely rebuilt my bathroom in 4 days, very nice job too, all with stuff from that Home Depot.

You never heard of the words Homo Depot? Gays love that store.
