I'll be the first to admit, I like a home improvement project. Home Depot has just about everything you could possibly need to work on or around your home. I have gone on a week day, early in the morning, and found plenty of help, even getting some simple cuts in wood. However, try to do the same thing on Saturday and it's a different story. The store is crowded and the employees are busy helping people. It's very difficult to get some attention and help. They have self check out, which can speed things up a bit, but I say your best bet is to try and get there during the week rather than on the weekend.
