Our first time to this business was very satisfactory, they took the car in immediately, replaced the windshield in the time promised and the price was reasonable. We would recommend them to anyone with Auto Glass repair needs.

This Citgo, off Seawall, is good because the prices are always reasonable or below close-by competitors. However, the problem is that you have to continously hold down the lever on the pump and the pumps are hard to squeeze.

Alright, this review is more for locals than tourists, since most visitors are not likely to purchase a nice 5 gallon rosebush for that trip back home. For the locals, this is the first place to visit for plants. They have a great selection of plants, herbs, trees and veggies. In fact, their helpful staff will let you know exactly what can be grown, how hard it is to grow, and what you need to do to ensure success. The prices are a little higher than you'll pay at WalMart or Home Depot, but you can see an immediate difference in the quality. I'm stilling working on killing some herbs that I bought almost 6 months ago, but have not yet been successful.
Bottom Line: For high quality plants to beautify your landscape, come here first.

In French, "Pret" means "ready". I'd say that Pret's Ace Hardware here in Galveston is more than ready for most of your hardware lumber needs.
This is an old-fashioned neighborhood-style hardware store, and a little bit more. There's a lumber-yard, and enough space for a few extras. The best thing about Pret's is that the staff are eager to help and not too busy to be polite. Even if they don't have what you want, they'll suggest another place that might have it.
Sure, they probably carry all the same things at Home Depot -- but you'd have to walk a mile around that store trying to find someone to help you find what you're looking for. And (with a gew exceptions) the Home Depot staffer would probably either not know where to find, or else they'd be rude, or else they'd be overwhelmed and overworked. Better off to start by calling Pret's. Ask if they have what you want, and if they don't then (and only then) venture to the chain store.

Chalmer's is a very small old-fashioned neighboorhood hardware store. They don't have a very big stock, and their prices are higher than many of the other stores in town.
You'd think that with these factors, they'd try to make up for their comptetive disadvantages by emphasizing service and customer satisfaction. Unfortunately, this is often not the case. Sometimes the staff is helpful, sometimes they ignore, sometimes they are rude.
Bottom line: Since I live in the neighborhood, I'll go in there for a very quick trip to buy something I absolultely know they'll have, if only to save a longer trip to the other side of town. Otherwise, I'll head off to Pret's, Home Depot, or even Lowe's on the Mainland.
