Same thing 12-ish hours east from bloke. Much better selection, better prices, etc.

Same here in northeastern Ohio.

I found this out when I built the 1st deck at the house. For the few extra cents per board they charge, it is much easier to find somthing that is straight and not full of blemishes at Lowes than it is at the "Home Despot"

Hate to gloat but up here in Washington State, we still cut down trees and we still have lumber at cheap prices.

Lowe's/Home Depot are OK but local lumberyards beat them all to hell on price and quality.

I imagine "Red Lobster" isn't real big in Maine, either! :lol:

S"yuck, Red Lobster..."T
Right you are. Currently, as far as I know, there only two Dead Lobsters in New England, and they're both in southeastern Connecticut. The only Dead Lobster in Maine closed not long after it opened, the big problem was the fact that they use Canadian lobster suppliers, which went over REALLY well in Coastal Maine. :shock: :x

In my neck of the woods, Lowe's and Menard's ALWAYS have the best selection of lumber (quality, type, size, etc.). Since Iowa is a treeless wasteland, prices do not seem to differ much either.

Sadly, people in Iowa love Red Lobster.

From the cradle of Home Depot I say, "Lowes is best, by far!"
