Where are you located?
There was a true value that was in my town of Ortonville Michigan but the owner(s) commited tax evasion and the store closed, there was another store in another town 15 miles away and that one closed too--Same owner.

Best of luck to you.........Even my prayers are with you due to Home Depot because of their hugeness and ability to destroy the little guy. I spent $25,000 in Home depot in 1999-2000 when I built my home. Home Depot does a good job in supplying EVERYTHING, (almost) to build a home.
I wish I would have bought all my electrical from a local electrical supply house that was 2 miles from my old employer.....They have way more stuff then Depot for electrical.

My best advice for you...Pray a lot.
And do things that Home depot wont do like sharpening chains/knives/scissors.
Know your plumbing fixtures and fittings, Home depot employees are totally ignorant when it comes to fittings. I have been a pipe fitter for years and I hate going there, the employees follow me around like a lost puppy.
And very important.....keep and eye on your employees.....young kids steal stuff....a lot.
I am not kidding. It would be very likely that 1/2 your missing (stolen) goods will be from employees. I have a distant friend that worked for Sears and he ripped off piles of tools.
Good luck

Today's Featured Article - Earthmaster Project Progress Just a little update on my Earthmaster......it's back from the dead! I pulled the head, and soaked the stuck valves with mystery oil overnight, re-installed the head, and bingo, the compression returned. But alas, my carb foiled me again, it would fire a second then flood out. After numerous dead ends for a replacement carb, I went to work fixing mine.I soldered new floats on the float arm, they came from an old motorcycle carb, replaced the packing on the throttle shaft with o-rings, cut new ga ...
