Welp, I'm officially adult, having purchased my very own Christmas tree for the first time ever…read more That's not counting my Charlie Brown table top tree that I proudly displayed in my first ever apartment for a few years. Not really knowing where to start, I remembered always seeing this little tree "farm" in that triangle of green space on Austin Hwy near the Broadway intersection. A sucker for supporting a good cause and keeping it local, I decided to make it my first stop on the hunt. It was the weekend before Thanksgiving, so there were plenty of lush pines to choose from (Firs to be specific...) starting at 3 and 4 feet and working their way up to 8-9 feet. It didn't take us long to find the perfect one, and within 10 minutes, the volunteer guys running the show had it trimmed, chopped and loaded in our truck for us. We also scored a deal on last year's stand (I think they were selling them half-price). All in all, we made it out of there in less than 20 minutes and spent exactly $100 for a beautiful fresh scented Fir and a brand new stand. It warrants mentioning that, yes, you will find a cheaper tree at Home Depot (by about half the price). But what you won't find is three gentlemen ready and willing to help, with smiles on their faces, and a Christmas Tree purchase that gives you warm fuzzies beyond the usual holiday spirit. Support local when you can!

This The Home Depot has been my go-to for years and even though there's been some not-so-great…read moreexperiences throughout the years, overall it is still my favorite place to shop for all of our home and garden needs. Some things to keep in mind with this The Home Depot is that during the mornings (weekdays and weekends) they can get very busy with all the orders from contractors, so if you need to get ahold of someone for a specific transaction I would recommend coming later in the day. Their garden section is always amazing and they do carry a wide selection of indoor and outdoor houseplants. I also like that they started to offer discounts on some of our regional plants that are better for our San Antonio weather. If you are looking to purchase a shed, please keep in mind that there is one person managing those transactions across multiple stores. So make sure to give them a call ahead of time to see when they will be at this location so you can plan your trip accordingly. Last but not least, I recently purchased some "exotic" plants at this location and they misplaced them and had a cheaper price tag from what they were supposed to be. Thankfully the manager offered me the cheaper price and left the store with an amazing deal.

This was so lame!…read more Before you all start criticizing me, let me clarify that the Alamo itself is not what I am reviewing, but rather specifically the December lights inside the Alamo grounds. Literally you could see everything in 5 minutes after you enter the gates. I'm uploading pictures and a quick video of the 4 major light decorations, so you don't have to venture inside like I did. Honestly, all the decorations outside the entrance gate were more exciting than what was inside the grounds. Additionally, the lights along Houston street and the Riverwalk were also else I'd recommend instead of Alamo Lights. I would have been so angry if I drove and parked downtown solely for the Alamo Lights because it was one of the most underwhelming experiences ever. I know the $5 admission is (probably...hopefully) going towards Alamo maintenance, so that's why I'm not rating this as one star. But any more than $5 and there's a good chance I'd have rated it one star. Also, this review was written in 2023, so maybe the other years' lights were better

Overall, I always have a high opinion of Lowe's, but I have mixed thoughts about this visit. I was…read moregoing in to buy a new dishwasher and had already researched the options before I went in. Normally, when I go into Lowe's, no less than 2 to 3 people stop and ask if I need help. This visit I only had 1 person and he didn't even work in the appliance section. I was in the section long enough to look over all the options and the open box options, then come back to my selection to really check it out without the sales person ever coming to speak to me. Once I was ready, I went to check out with the sales person and never once did he ask if I had any questions or how he could offer any other assistance with the purchase. I needed installation, which turned out to be almost a month later on April 15. To pay for a new appliance and not be able to enjoy it until almost a month later is ludicrous. Overall, I'm just meh about this experience at Lowe's.
