A big selection but did not have the items that I needed and I could not find anybody in the tool department to help me. Found another guy from paint I believe but he had no idea.

I had a great experience shopping at Lowe’s thanks to Carlos Varela. He was incredibly helpful, patient, and knowledgeable. Carlos went above and beyond to make sure I found exactly what I needed and even offered great advice on different product options. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated to providing excellent customer service. I truly appreciate his kindness and professionalism

It appears that I’ve been charged multiple times for an order. How can I resolve this?
These charges are likely authorization holds that are placed throughout the life cycle of your order to ensure the funds are reserved for your purchase. When you place an order, your payment method is authorized for the full amount of the purchase. As items from your order ship, your payment is charged and the authorization is no longer held by Lowe’s. Orders shipped in multiple shipments will be charged separately at time of shipment; therefore, you may see multiple charges, but they'll never exceed the full amount of your order. For orders with longer lead times, your method of payment will be reauthorized to ensure funds remain available until your item is shipped. If you observe multiple pending authorizations, please contact your financial institution as each bank’s policies differ on how long authorizations are held.
