Garden + Patio: 7 Outdoor Upgrades Cheaper Than Home Depot
Home Depot is fine for big stuff — grills, mowers, sheds. but the small patio accessories? markup is brutal — usually 40-60% over what you'd pay online for the same items.

the buying rule
for patio/garden:
- under $40: order online. Home Depot markup is brutal at this tier.
- $40-150: compare both. sometimes HD wins on sale.
- over $150 (grills, big tools): Home Depot or local hardware.
