Lowes Hardware Store in Tyler and Lindale

July 6th, 2010


When you are redoing your kitchen or bathroom, or if you are building that new play ground for your children, you want to know the best place to buy your materials. If you are like me than you probably want to know where the people are most ready to help you and answer all your questions.

I hate going into a Tyler TX hardware store and not finding anyone to help me, and I have no idea what I need to accomplish my projects.

At Lowes they have a little switch that you flip when you need help. This system is extremely annoying, and it does not work. So many times we have sat at a counter and waited for someone to answer the intercom announcing that there is help needed in the washer machine department. So many times no one has come and I just give up and walk away.

I can just picture two men arguing while they are out back having a smoke, who should go out and help me. Not only does this system not work at all, the automatic intercom voice is extremely annoying. I cringe when I need to ask for help because of the reason that I have to hear that voice. I think that all home improvement stores should have more staff ready to help answer questions.

Lindale opened a Lowes hardware store a few years ago. This really makes it a whole lot easier to go to the hard ware store when you live out towards Lindale. I have live out in the country and been working on a house, and it is really hard to do big projects when you have to drive an hour to get to the closest store. I really do like to go to Lowes because they have great deals, especially on appliances.

When your car barely fits your double stroller in the trunk, you can not really expect to fit a dish washer in your car, so Lowes has delivery. At times their delivery services are really great. But I have witnessed a stressful experience when Lowes had to deliver a washer machine and the first washer machine did not work, the second machine had such a big dent in the side that the barrel inside could not turn.

It got pretty frustrating when you have a lot of people doing the laundry in one house and no washer. But there was a time that they successfully delivered and installed a stacked washer and dryer with out hurting it or doing to much damage to my house.

The delivery service is pretty affordable but if you know how to install these appliances than I recommend that you borrow your friend’s truck and pick it up yourself.

If you wait until the end of the season, you can find great sales. At the end of the summer I found a beautiful outdoor swing for about half the price. If you are willing to wait you can find everything you need for the next year at a really great price.

Lowes has all that you need for any building project, I just recommend that you take someone with you that knows what they are doing, because you probably will have to hunt down help in the store.

While walking through the Broadway Square Mall I have to stop in the small over crowded store. Through I want to scream trying to push my double stroller around the display towers. I battle through the store to get to the back hair products. I love the idea to use nature as beauty accessories. I love the selection of the 1940 style of hair products. Icing has a great selection of peacock feathers for your hair. I love the look of the colorful feathers.

Hair accessories are not the only thing sold at Icing. The jewelry is very in fashion sold at a great price. Many times I have gone there and found the most for my money. Icing has a ton of amazing sales. I love going into the store and seeing the white and red 50% off sale sign, or the “RED LINE” sale sign that indicates that about a fourth of the store is about half off or even more!

Some the best purses, bags and clutches are found at Icing. Find your style, with their great selection of leather, animal prints and bright colors. Bring out your personality through your style. Icing is up to date with the best and most recent fashion statements. And they even have to best sales on their brand name bags.

When I go into the store I can not help but dig through the fun selection of scarves. The long strands of colorful material can change the entire look to your style, and bring out the fun in your personality.

I love the makeup cases that you can buy at Icing. They have great selection of colors that you can use according to your mood. No matter the type of skin tone that you have or no matter the color of eye shadow that you prefer you can find it all at the Icings large selection.

It is really hard to avoid the accessory store. To at least battle through the store to just look around at what I really want but not really need. I love to see the most recent styles at Icing, for every season. The Icing’s website shows the newest selections and fashions that you can either order of line or that are available at the store.
