Women aren't allowed to possess hand tools? News to me.
I hate it when I don't forward chain letter and I die the next day!

Norman's getting these for me for Christmas. They're really cool. (Kobalt is the house brand for tools at Lowe's.)

I worked at Home Depot many years ago and preferred their Husky brands

Mainly shop at Home Depot -- there's one about 2 miles away. There will be a new Lowe's going in figuratively next door to my house, so it will probably be the path of least resistance.

I used to hear from HD management that women customers liked to shop at Lowe's because their stores were cleaner
and they didn't downstock during the operating hours and there wouldn't be as much clutter on their floors.

That's true in my neck of the woods here in Vegas and it was true in my Dallas neighborhood.
If you need a really unusual bolt, nut or such, Home Depot still seems the best for that.
