Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend. I spent a good chunk of it in my PJs on account of all the rain and SUPER cold temperatures. Why does rain make me feel all loungey? If I lived in a place like Seattle I don't think I would get anything done!

I am looking forward to getting an energy-star rated dishwasher. Don't have one now (no dishwasher - have NEVER had one!)

Thanks for the giveaway!
I just left FB and liked Home Depot. I am also a follower of your great blog! Keep up the great work! 8^)
Our next Energy Efficient purchase is a new refrigerator. Also on the list is about 6 more inches of insulation in our attic.
Thanks for the entry!
I dream about new appliances...
Next up for us are new energy efficient kitchen appliances! A gift card would be a great help!
We've been making the switch to energy-efficient lightbulbs!
I like Home Depot on Facebook!
I really need to make the commitment and change the lightbulbs in our home! This would be the push I need. Thanks for the opportunity.
I would love new windows - I know we're loosing tons of warm air out of them!
We are in need of a good energy star refrigerator.
this sounds horrible, but we still need blinds! we just moved in!
Lightbulbs! We need to replace the lightbulbs! But those babies are expensive in mass quantities. thanks for hosting this give away!

The drywall on the outside wall of my laundry room is in bad shape. Since I know there is economy 1 1/2" insulation in the wall of this house, I am going to rip out the drywall and install new insulation, a vapor barrier ( there is none right now), and mold resistant drywall. This room is on the north side so it is always a little colder. I think doing this would help keep this room much warmer! So if I win the gift card I will be buying insulation! Thanks for the chance!

LOVE this giveaway :D
We need to replace all of our windows, one is literally about ready to fall out!
I like HD on FB!
I would love to get an energy efficient dryer!
We definitely could use more energy efficient windows! Our windows are so old and the glass seems so thin so I know with some nice double pane windows, our utility bill would decrease significantly =)
Like HD on FB!
I'm looking at a new dishwasher for our kitchen. We've been upgrading everything to energy star and this is one of the last things to do!
WOW - this is awesome!!! And there's little more that the Hubs and I love more than a Sat. AM visit to the Home Depot... Needless to say, this would come in very handy :-) The next energy efficient thing I think we'd like to do in our home is add additional insulation to our attic. I'd also finish switching ALL of our light bulbs out for the more energy efficient ones. Thanks for the opportunity!
I liked Home Depot on FB. Thank YOU for the giveaway!
We need to replace our screen door and oven!
I would love to get new windows. They are desparately needed!
Awesome giveaway!!
We began with replacing light bulbs but still need more. Next is a energy efficient frig. This is a great give-away! Thanks!
I want to try out the lightbulbs!
I would change out all the lightbulbs in the house... we seem to do a couple and then quit or forget about it
Liked them on facebook and said you sent me!
I liked them on facebook
I want to change out our washer an dryer. we would save a good bit of energy there.
I am hoping that my next purchase will be a new energy efficient refrigerator!
Insulating around drafty windows...the Chicago wind rips through the gaps in the winter!
I like Home Depot on Facebook
New windows is next for us! We got an energy efficient furnace and AC a few years ago and its made a huge difference in our bills.
We want to change all the toilets to low flush systems
I want to go buy some double curtain rods, so that I can hang double curtains for the winter. I think it will help insulate my old windows!
Why wouldn't I love Home Depot? They have everything!!!
I would change all the single pane windows in my house. Our house is either cold or hot, there doesn't seem to be an in between.
I'd really really love to get an energy star compliant dishwasher. Barring that, I'll be insulating my windows and filling cracks in baseboards to snug the house up for winter.
I like Home Depot, because they always have what I need and the employee are so friendly.
I like Home Depot because it's one of few stores that my husband and I can enjoy equally, and it's continually full of new things for me to play with.
We definitely need to caulk around our windows. But the thing that would help the most is if the dang boys would remember to turn lights off when they leave a room! :)
I'd love to get Energy Star appliances next.
Like you, I adore Home Depot. I'd much rather shop there than at the mall. I'd go Home Depot shopping with you any time, even if I don't win this awesome giveaway!
I like Home Depot because the employees are very helpful.
I forgot to state that I follow your blog in GFC.
I need to get a new dishwasher. Ours has been out for a couple of months. Kind of over hand washing.
We really need to weather-strip around our front door! Cold weather will be here before we know it and we want to keep it OUT!!
We are in the middle of replacing our windows in our farmhouse....only 4 more to go!
Home Depot has great customer service!!!
I would love to get some energy efficient appliances, mainly refrigerator, washer and dryer!
I like Home depot because of their flooring dept. We got our wood floor there and they were very helpful.
I love Home Depot because I know I can go there and ask stupid questions, and they are still very nice and helpful.
I like home depot because it is the one store my boys like to go to with me and they have everything.
This old house needs more insulation.
Our goal is to replace all of our lightbulbs with energy efficient ones. We're down two rooms so far!
I like Home Depot, because everyone there is so friendly and helpful. I always get what I need and never walk out feeling frustrated!
Home Depot has been my go to place for several reasons the last 9 years. My husband passed away, I have two boys--so we learned together how to take care of the house! Never once did I go and need to find a tool, part or advice that the guys and gals at Home Depot were not right there to help. I have always loved home depot but now it is much more--I do believe I can fix anything, and 'project' is my middle name--thanks to Home Depot! :)
Our next energy efficient upgrade will probably be re-weather stripping all of our doors. They are not sealed very well at all. On one of our doors you can even see light coming in through the top.
I've always been a bit of a do-it-yourselfer and and I really like that I can go to Home Depot and ask questions (because I don't always know what I'm doing) and they'll give me information I can use.
We need new weather stripping around our doors. If I can see sunlight coming through the corners, that can't be good for the a/c bill!
I love Home Depot because I love doing home improvement projects and they have EVERYTHING! Very helpful people too!
I wish so bad I could get two new windows! Our boys have broke two windows in the past few years and we havent replaced them. So window would be on the top of the list. Then I would love to have a weather striping party and go around doors and windows.
I love Home Depot because they are close and convienent. Also because they offer hands on classes!
We just bought our house and it is older so the list of energy efficient changes we need to make is a mile long. Truthfully I would start with something small like the light bulbs and move up from there. Would also like to change out shower heads b/c they leak like crazy!
I need to replace the weather stripping around all my exterior doors. It's become dry and cracked in places and I know when cold weather gets here, the heat is going to escape through those places.
We would love to upgrade our existing builder-grade toilets to more earth-friendly/efficient ones! We'd also love to add some solar lighting to the landscaping.
Thank You!!

I probably shouldn't admit this on a Home Depot giveaway but I always used to be a Lowe's girl. Recently though I switched to Home Depot, I admit mostly because it was closer to my house. I am so much happier with Home Depot! The customer service is much better and they have more of a small hardware type feel just because the people are so friendly and helpful but yet they have everything I could need plus more!
I love Home Depot for several reasons. I think they have great prices and a wonderful selection of merchandise. I love their garden center. But the main reason I like them is because... unlike the other big home improvement store... I can ALWAYS find a friendly, helpful and knowledgeable sales associate to answer questions or point me in the right direction.
I would totally buy a new energy star appliances for sure. Yay for Home Depot!!!
Hmm I would love to get a new refrigerator. Ours is really old and I'm sure it's not that energy efficient.
I NEED a new energy star washing machine I can not tell you how bad this washer is that I am baby-ing along now is....I will keep my fingers crossed
maybe winning this 100 dollars will be incentive for the hubby to go buy it !
-KAT-
I like (Love) home depot because they have nice wood which i get there.
and everyone is so friendly and super helpful
when ever the hubs and I go there !
-KAT-
I love Home Depot for...everything! I always go there for the paint they have and their supply of lumber. Plus it's right around the corner from my house!
I love Home Depot because it is a place my entire family loves to go. My husband actually suggests it on some date nights to get ideas for new home projects...and he does it not becuase he loves it but he knows I do. We were just there and he said. "Wow, I've never been asked so many times if we were finding everything okay. They really have the customer satisfaction down. My little guys love it becuase they have awesome carts and popcorn!!! What's not to love?
The next energy efficient thing I want to do in my home is replace this light bulbs. We've got a million lights in our house (that we unfortunately forget to turn off all too often) so we're in desperate need of better light bulbs.
I love Home Depot because of the smell. It smells like fresh cut wood, one of the best smells in the world. :)
I would love to get an energy efficient washer/dryer set. As renters we can't change other appliances or things. We do use energy efficient light bulbs where we can.
Thank you for the chance to win!
We wnat to get a engery check down to our home to make engery effecient improvements
I love Home Depot because they have all the supplies I need for do it myself projects around the house . =]
I love Home Depots behr paint and thier prices can't be beat a lot of the time:)
A new stove/oven...My son dropped something on my glasstop range and cracked it so I only have 2 burners to use. :0)
I want to change all of my light bulbs to energy efficient ones! :)

I need more insulation in my basement, desperately! Hopefully, this weekend, it will get done!
I like HD because their prices are awesome and their employees are so so friendly and very willing to help on anything you need.
What's not to love about Home Depot! I love looking online & then the store is full of amazing ideas & I can really get in trouble in there!
A new a/c unit!!
I would get some more insulation to prepare for the winter!
Definitely central heat and air! Window units in FL just dont cut it! tracietrump@yahoo.com
Love the friendly employees at Home Depot! tracietrump@yahoo.com
I love Home Depot because they always have people who are willing to help and answer questions. :)

We actually had a home energy audit done last year and ended up switching out light bulbs, shower head, and adapted all our faucets. Over the last few years we've put in energy efficient windows, got a new washer and dryer, and insulated under the house. Next on the list is HOPEFULLY insulating the attic. New kitchen appliances are on the fantasy list.
I need to get those energy efficient light bulbs. The gift card would be great for that. Thanks for the chance.
I love Home Depot because they have everything I need! The next energy efficient project for me is honeycomb blinds for the kitchen window.
I like Home Depot because orange is their signature color - just like me.
Who DOESN'T love Home Depot!? I was just there again this weekend. I love it because I can get anything I need for any kind of house project we're working on. And there's ALWAYS a project! :)
We would love to get new windows. We have standard single-pane windows and we would love to upgrade them to double-pane to help keep the heat out during our hot summers!
I love Home Depot because of HD Happy Hour when all the employees are readily available ready to help you find what you need. I also love the paint selection they always have on hand.
Definitely new light bulbs and fixtures!!!
We are currently shopping for all new energy efficient appliances. It's hard making such a big decision, but the people at HD have been soooo helpful!
I really want to get an energy efficient washer and dryer and a gift card would certainly help! :) Thanks for the giveaway!
I love HD because they have such a great selection and wonderful customer service! When we first bought our home we wanted to replace all 4 ceiling fans and found just the one at HD. Since they did not have 4 in stock, the manager sold us the more expensive version at the reduced price. It was so nice to take them home with us that day and get them installed.
I LOVE Home Depot. Even as a kid, it was one of my favorite stores to go to. :) I've always found what I wanted/needed quite easily and the employees are super helpful and friendly. They've helped me out with several different projects, giving me great tips and suggestions.
I would love to get an energy efficient washer and dryer...we are due for new ones soon!!
I would love to get zone heating and cooling for our home. It is such a waste that in the summer when the air is cranking the basement is freezing and the upstairs is hot!
New Appliances for sure! We just got new windows this summer and next up is the appliances!
I love Home Depot because they offer a military discount and any place that honors our military has my undying loyalty! Semper Fi!!
I would love a new energy efficient refrigerator!
I love Home Depot because it is the closest store to me, a half mile up the road, and I can get so much there (including a yummy hot dog on the weekends!)
Thanks for hosting the giveaway! My favorite thing about HD is that they measure twice and cut once.
Home Depot is a great place for all my project needs! We buy everything for the upkeep of our house there too!
My husband and I just bought a new house. It was built in 1900 and has ZERO insulation. With winter right around the corner, insulation will certainly be the first energy effiecent upgrade we make!
I would like to try replacing all the light bulbs for energy efficient ones.
Home depot is a DIYer's heaven. With aisle after aisle or beautiful hardware, paint colors, brushes, moldings, flooring, tiles,... what's not to love?
Home Depot has everything, but I really love their new style guide.
I like Home Depot because they always have what we need for our home projects. From replacing light switches to paint.. I always find something I didn't know I needed :)
I love Home Depot because it reminds me of my Daddy! He is quite the handyman and on weekends growing up he would take me with him to get his supplies! I have now married a handyman and we love going to Home Depot together!
We definitely need some new insulation in our attic, as well as some in our new hall closet that opened up after we moved to a tankless water heater. There are a few holes in the sheetrock, that I assume aren't terribly energy efficient.
I love Home Depot because their employees are actually helpful. Going to the other box store means I have to find someone, then get passed off to several people before I get an almost answer. At Home Depot, I always get the right answer right off the bat, without having to spend 15 minutes looking for someone to help me. Besides, when I want to do home improvement, I want to build stuff... not decorate.
I would love to update my washer and dryer to energy efficient ones!
I like Home Depot because their staff is friendly and knowlegable, and always so helpful with my DIY projects!
I just installed foam insulation around all out my electrical outlets and light switches! Now I need to find a way to insulate our pot lights....
Hi there!
I LOVE LOVE Home Depot!! why? I was in there yesterday, making a list of allllllllll the things I will need to buy to repaint my own home, and had THE BEST help and customer service I've ever had. Anywhere! Hands down they were the most friendly, knowledgeable and patient staff I've ever dealt with.
As a result I WILL be going back there next payday to purchase paint and tools and everything in between. Speaking of which, a gift card would come in handy ;)
I like Home depot because it is only a couple of blocks from my office and I can go there at lunch and wander the aisles looking for my next project!
Since we are renting, I'd love to get some energy star appliances that we can take with us when we move in a couple years! :)
I love Home Depot because they have everything I would ever need!! Their products are awesome and it is like a kid in candy store whenever I go! We are moving to Hawaii next summer and I am so excited to find there is a Home Depot there!! I have been bugging my husband to build me bookshelves, but we need the tools first :)
I like home depot because the employees are so nice and helpful!
solar attic fan!
Looking to buy an energy star dishwasher!
I am getting ready to put baseboards in my home to make our propane more energy efficient!!! Perfect timing.
I love home depot not just because they have just about everything but because their employees are so knowledgable and helpful.
I love Home Depot because they have Behr Premium Plus Ultra paint, so I don't have to prime and then paint. I can just get to the painting...the fun part!
What a fantastic giveaway! I love, love, love Home Depot. The people in the paint department are always so helpful and with the amount of times I'm in there they know me now. :) I love the there is help if you need it, but they aren't in your face - it's a do-it-yourself store after all! We are looking to install new hardwood floors and this giveaway would be a great starter.
We rent, but I would like to change out our light bulbs and then put plastic over the windows for winter!
Home Depot is pretty much a candy store. Any reason to go to Home Depot is a good one!!!
The next energy efficient thing is replace our 1980's appliances. I'm pretty sure they are not energy efficient!
I love Home Depot for the customer service. I've walked into their competitors and don't even get looked at or asked if I need help. Home Depot employees LOVE helping and aren't annoying about it. :) Love it!
I follow via RSS.
I would love a new energy star fridge. Or dishwashwer. Then washer/dryer. The list is long.
I love shopping Home Depot! So many great things there. The next energy saving thing we'll be replacing is the dishwasher which is pretty old and could be MUCH more energy efficient.
I liked Home Depot on FB!
I am already a "Follower" of you're Blog.
Thanks for the chance

Once we decide if we are staying in this house or moving to one we can live in for the long haul, we want to put solar panels on our home. BIG project, but living in AZ it is something we could do to make a big impact.
I "LIKE" Home Depot on Facebook!
sandraallen260@centurytel.net
I LOVE Home Depot! The fact that they have all of the raw materials I could possibly need for any of my big craft projects is convenient. Looking at buying sheet metal with the $100 gift card! Thanks for the opportunity to win!
I would really love to insulate my attic and crawlspace. Yes, even Tucson gets cold in Winter!
My husband and I will be buying an energy effcient front. You know, the kind that actually keeps the heat in your house and that spiders can't crawl under. Eeeek!!
I love HD because their customer service is top-notch and I can find everything in one store!!
I love Home Depot because they always have everything I need and I always find some cool new product while in search of something else. :) Everyone is so nice and helpful!
I want an energy efficient fridge so bad!!
I "LOVE" Home Depot. I go there at least once a week! LOL! I Love the Behr paint that they carry. I have painted every room in this brand of paint.
I have soooo many things that need to be updated.
I need new energy star appliances.
A New toilet that uses less water. We need insulation in the garage.
And the list goes on, Lol!
sandraallen260@centurytel.net
I like Home Depot because the workers are easy to spot in their orange vests. ;) Plus, they will cut your wood for you.
New heaters! We have old baseboard ones and they cost an arm and a leg in electric bills every winter!
If we stay in this house...we would need to update or add insulation...It's gonna be a cold winter!
IMy husband and I go to HD to talk to their employees about our projects. 95% really do know what they are talking about! Love all of the good finds...I love clearance!
wa-hoo, would love to win this giveaway!
I think Home Depot has just about anything I could ever want, thats why i love it
I love Home Depot! Most of my hubby and mine dates end up there! They always have just what we need!
I would love to get energy star stuff
The next energy efficient project we are doing is installing a dampener system into our HVAC system to only heat or cool the rooms/floor needed instead of every room.
The next energy efficient thing that I would like to do is to purchase all energy efficient light bulbs. We have some in our living room, but I would like them in every room of the house.
I love Home Depot because of the variety of stuff that they have. I used to think that it was a "men only" store, but now I'm seeing that there are some things there that I can enjoy as well.
I'd love to have that little pump under a sink to make the hot water comes faster. Or maybe a tankless hot water heater.
And I like HD because when I bought appliances from them the salesman spent FOREVER helping me and even printed off papers about all my favorites because I wanted to go home and talk to my hubby about them before I bought. It was really awesome!
We are shopping for a new upright freezer! An Energy Star one is a must =)
I love Home Depot. They have everything!! My husband and I will spend hours there looking at building materials, appliances, etc and dreaming of the way we want our home to be someday =)
We planning on purchasing a tankless water heater very soon!
new energy star washer and dryer is next on the list. Can't wait to get the new front load washer
I love Home Depot because everyone is so helpful. There is always someone at the door pointing you in the right direction and then if you need additional help, there is always someone close by with expert advise!
What I love about HD is when you walk in, it smells like fresh cut wood. I always sniff dramatically when I first walk in. The Hubs loves it. Ha! But that is the other thing I love about Home Depot - The Hubs and I both like to go there.
oh...and I like Home Depot because of their kids build it program, I took my cub scouts and they met their requirements and had a great time
We've got the lightbulbs, the new windows, and energy efficient furnace. What I would LOVE to have next is a new washer and dryer.
Light bulbs for sure!
I like home depot because it has a variety of things and lots of selection
I would like to put in a door to my upstairs portico so that I can dry my clothes outside.
I like Home Depot because of the great service and quality stuff you get there. Oh - and their paint department rocks.
I love Home Depot because they have a great selection and competitive prices. You can't beat that it is so close to our house either!
The next energy efficient thing we are doing is installing insulation in the back rooms of our house. Our exposed beam ceiling family room and our master bedroom which we are remodeling do not have insulation so we need to do that quickly.
I would love to do several things, a new washer/dryer that is more energy efficient would probably be number 1. We spend way too much on our power and water and I really think it's because of the old washer and dryer that came with our house
We need new windows and insulation in our exterior walls.... oh we could use a new door too... lol
i like Home Depot cos they offer classes for the the DIY's like myself..
I like home depot because the people who work there (at least at our store) are actually helpful! They don't run and hid so you won't ask a question. There was actually one lady worker who walked me through everything I needed for one of my projects and called someone to make for sure that she was giving me the right info(I made a point to talk to the store manager and let him know how wonderful she was.
We love Home Depot too! Some of the things on our list are: a new energy star dishwasher, replace light bulbs, replace weather stripping around doors, more insulation in attic over our garage & laundry room. Thanks
Oh, that would be fun to have $100 free to spend at Home Depot!
Just reread the "instructions." I like the Energy Star appliances, like my new fridge I got there last year and love the displays of lighting and wide selection of paint.
I would love to replace our windows!
I like Home Depot because I can get home improvement and craft items in one place, beautiful plants, and the associates are always very helpful!
We need a new oven ours is over 20 years old and im sure they have ones that are much more efficient now!
i love to look at all the "ideas" for moy home at home Depot!
I desperately want an energy efficient washer and dryer! Our washer is making strange noises!!
Lightbulbs, I guess. I have to say that I don't really like the new CFL bulbs. We've had 2 burst and emit terribly foul mercury odors. Not good in a household with asthmatics. My daughter couldn't sleep in her bedroom for 3 weeks while the horrible smell dissipated.
I love Home Depot because it's a great place to get ideas, and there's so much variety. :) Thanks for an awesome giveaway!
I love Home Depot because not only do they have EVERYTHING I need, but they are full of possibilities. I love walking through the kitchen and flooring departments and dreaming of what my house could be like!
I am looking forward to the day when I can replace my old washer and dryer from college with new energy efficient ones and create a clean and organized space in the closet called my "laundry room."
I love Home Depot! I can always count on them to have the materials I need for my projects...and priced well too! Next on the agenda is new countertops and backsplash in the kitchen.
Home Depot is my go to place for home improvement projects. I also get a lot of inspiration for new projects, too.
We resided, added insulaton, replaced some windows with french doors, and a few other things.
We plan to put in some new energy efficient windows very soon...before the cold weather settles in.
A gift card would really help stretch our very tight budget. We have a lot of windows to replace and will only be able to do one or two at a time. (We have 36 windows not counting the enclosed porch -a big financial ouch! $$$)
We need a new energy star fridge. Ours is about 13 years old.
I would say that I would like to better insulate my windows or doors. We always seem to have drafts in the winter!
Stacey of Embracing Change
lI love Home Depot for lots of reasons...There is one in my hometown and I love it. Most shops are all over in Scranton thus a drive, but we have one local !!!! Yeah! I also love the paint guy at my HOme Depot - he is always helpful and available! Gotta love that! Home Depot is just all around great.
Stacey of Embracing Change
I love home depot because they always have the best garden ideas, plus I worked there in college.
I just had my AC serviced and the ducts cleaned to make it more effecient and I always leave it set on 73:)
I love HD because they always seem to have what I need and there are three of them within a close distance to my house! Which is very important when doing projects as there always is the inevitable need to run out and get one more thing or the right part, etc.
The next thing we plan on doing for energy savings is re-caulk some of our windows and also add insulation to a small enclosed porch off of our back door.
Next on our list is re-caulking the windows. It involves lots of caulk and a B I G ladder, fun!
I like Home Depot because they are close, have a good variety for our small town and the price is right!
I love home Depot. We go there about every week in the summer! They are so friendly and their prices are great!
We need a new front door to be energy efficient. We loose a lot of heat our our door. yuck!
My husband and I were just talking about replacing our old light bulbs the other day. I also would like to update our washer and dryer. I follow your site.
The next energy saving project for us is a new refrigerator. The one we have is really, really old. I have my eye set on one that actually has an alarm letting you know if the door didn't shut all the way. How cool is that?
I like Home Depot because it's close to where we live and they have nearly everything we could want for projects. It's great because we don't have to drive far or to multiple stores for one project. Also, the people there have always been pretty helpful.
I really want a Energy Star front loader washer and dryer, but we really need more insulation in our attic. Our room is 55 degrees in the winter and 90 degrees in the summer. I love Home Depot and call it my home away from home.
Home Depot to me is like a toy store for adults. It makes all of my craft ideas seem possible!
I need an energy efficient dishwasher - mine works poorly and is in poor shape.
I like home depot because is gives me inspiration to try new things and it opens up my mind to new ideas and product.
My husband and I just finished painting our kitchen cabinets and our next move is to get all new energy efficient appliances. A Home Depot gift card could really help. ;-)
We converted most all of our light bulbs several years back, but I would love to replace our windows to more energy efficient. My windows now are like having none at all!
The next EE item I'd like to purchase at home depot would be a dishwasher. I absolutely hate my dishwasher, it spits food back on all the plates and glasses, and I swear they're dirtier before. I would so love to reduce my water bill from having to handwash or rewash dishes constantly, and save some time!
We love Home Depot b/c they have a great selection and friendly staff that you can actually find!
I love Home Depot because it always gives me motivation to do something different with my house. There's no such thing as 'just stopping in'!
Would love a new hot water heater! Thanks for the giveaway!
What's not to love?!?!?! All of the great products, the staff, 3 miles from my house!
I want to put in a programable thermostat before the weather turns cold.
Oh I would love to get an energy star dryer!
I love home depot because it makes my husband happy to shop there! :)
WHERE TO START?!?! Ummmm I love home depot because without FAIL they ALWAYS have what I need. And it amazes me how every single worker there knows where EVERYTHING is, nomatter how small the thing is that I am looking for! AND I need to fix the insulation and water thing too... this house needs it! Anyways I love your blog...you are great!
We need a new dishwasher AND new windows installed!
Who DOESN'T love Home Depot?! They have everything - from ideas to implementation!
I love HD for all the things they have, but also, its the one store hubby doesnt bitch about when we go there lol!
I love to change our dishwasher. I love Home Depot because their products are affordable and you can find almost anything you need for home improvement.
Well, I would buy light bulbs for sure! I love the energy savings!
I would love to replace my huge old water heater with a tankless hot water heater....save wate and energy.
I would love to re-insulated the house we just bought. I am certain that it could use it. Also, would love to look into other ways to increase the energy efficency around here...I just wish the "Energy Star Appliances" were less expensive.
Why do I love Home Depot: because unlike other hardware stores in the area, you can actually find employees willing and knowledgeable enough to assist when you need it.
I love just walking up and down ALL the aisles in H.D. but my favorite thing is the paint section. Love me some spray paint. YAY.
We just moved into a new rental and man the windows are drafty, we will definitely be puttin up the plastic on them this winter to try to keep that warm weather in and our heat bill down!
What is not to like,b ut I must say one of my daughter's favorite things is getting to go on the frst Saturday of the month with Daddy and build a free home depot project!
Hi Stacy! I am a follower, and the thing we would most love to do next for energy efficiency is a new hot water on demand water heater!! Our current regular water heater is so wacky and undpredictable.
what I love about Home Depot is their lumber dept, Behr paints, the tile area, the variety of flowers and plants in the garden department....shall I go on? :)
i would like to upgrade my appliances to ones more energy efficient. skeime (at) gmail
I like that the door guy at home depot was super honest with me about when the custom order doors would go on sale.
I would love to get a new energy efficient fridge.
The next energy efficient thing we are doing is replacing our front door. Our old one has had it and the weather stripping is shot...you can literally see daylight around our door. That is on our to-do list.
I love the classes they offer to teach you how to do things.
we need new windows -- we added onto our house last year and all those windows are energy efficient, but the older ones, really need to go. thanks.
i love home depot because my husband and i have had some of our best date nights there. thanks for the giveaway -- oh, and my three year old loved your home depot video.
We are slowly changing out our lightbulbs. We have been doing our appliances over the past 3 years.
I like Home Depot because I can always find someone to help me in the store. I also like them because they have door greeters.
We need new windows.
I like Home Depot for how easy it is to return things if they don't work out.
We need to replace the weather stripping around our exterior doors.
I love Home Depot! I find all kinds of crafting supplies there - not too mention cool tools! And my family considers me a pvc pipe floozie because I use it for so many things! And of course, Home Depot has all the pvc pipe and fittings one could desire.
Oh man, I need energy efficient windows! Our house was built in 1969 and I am pretty sure that the original windows are still in. As you can imagine technology has come along ways since 1969 and getting new windows in our house would save us BIG on heating and cooling our house! I love Home Depot. It is right down the street from our house and it has become our weekend shopping stop. Love it!
I am now an official follower. The next energy efficient thing I would love to complete in our house is new windows. It still has the original 1955 windows.
Improvements? Top of my list: water reducing toilet adapter (first saw on your blog!), insulation blanket for the water heater, new dryer vent cover (keep out rodents & prevent cold air seeping in), foam inserts for electrical outlets & switches, and get sealant for any cracks in window/door molding.
I like Home depot because they usually have what I need, offer info classes on improvement projects, and have store mock-ups of projects I'm thinking of doing on my own.
Love Home Depot! I buy all of my paint there, just love their selections of brands there! && flowers, they always have a great selection [and beautifully taken care of]. Especially fall time! Mums are beautiful!
Our next energy efficient addition to our home has got to be blinds or drapes that help block out the heat and sun. Our home has many energy efficient features but we still get a tremendous amount of heat coming off of our south facing Arizona windows!!!
I love the paint department at Home Depot. Behr paint rocks. I also love the changes they have been making in the lighting department. We are changing out lights in our kitchen and I love some of the new styles they are carrying!
Energy efficient light-bulbs would be fantastic!
I would replace all the lightbulbs in my house!! I love our Home Depot!! They have the best staff!:)
Our next energy-efficient project is to install a wrap around our hot water heater.
I like Home Depot because of their great prices on so many products and the huge selection they have.
I love our Home Depot because they have the best staff and because they have all the stuff I need to finish my projects!!
What is not to love about Home Depot. Color, organization, function, oh my! Seems we are there all the time to get paint for a room or project, plants or planters, home maintenance items. You name it!
What do I like about Home Depot? Everything! That store inspires me to accomplish a great many thing.
I would love love love to get energy star appliances... Something pretty and economical- there's nothing better.
An energy efficient refrigerator would be tops on my list!!
I'm really hoping for new energy efficient washer/dryer. Hint, hint to my hubby!
Love Home Depot, especially the paint. Plus love that my girls can do projects there on Saturdays!!
I like Home Depot because they are convenient and typically have what I am looking for to complete a project. They also have the Best Food Truck in their parking lot. It is the only place I eat hotdogs and fries!!!!
I think that we will be getting one of those things that goes in your toilet to make it more energy and water efficeint soon.
We need to do some caulking around the windows.
I love home depot, they always have everything I am looking for and the people there are so nice and always help me find what i need, even when i don't even know what i need half the time.
My next energy saving project will be putting new weather stripping on my doors.
My favorite thing about Home Depot is that they carry Martha Stewart products. :)
i like home depot because they have what you need at a good price. you don't have to search or price shop. skeime (at) gmail
We are thinking about doing some solar heating. Still researching though.
My number one reason why I love Home Depot is that both my husband and myself love to go and browse. We sometimes go to dinner and then head to the Depot. great date night for us both!
I'd like to redo the weather stripping around our doors. With the cool weather approaching it's definitely something high on our to do list. Thanks for the chance to win this awesome giveaway!
We have been redoing our home slowly over the past two years with new windows and an energy efficient furnace, along with insulation in the attic. Now we are on to energy efficient appliances and the money would be awesome for that!
I love to browse through HD for ideas. I love to just go look around and dream and make plans for the next "project".
I love this! Home depot is awesome! I love them because of all the tools they have to offer. I can't decided whether I would use the $100 on tools for my husband, or a new lighting fixture for our living room (ours is HID-E-OUS!)
Of course I would have to get some energy efficient bulbs with that new lighting fixture, or you do have me sold on the Hydroright Drop-in Dual Flush Converter.
The next energy efficient thing I hope to do to my house is add more insulation to our attic. After that, upgrade our windows!
I like Home Depot because not only do they have everything you need for home improvement projects but they also offer classes to teach people how to do projects correctly
We have been replacing our sprinkler nozzles with new, water efficient models.
I love the variety at Home Depot - from gardening to painting - it's all there!
I need insulation! My walls aren't done very well, because you can hear EVERYTHING from the street! Would love to break down some walls to keep my house warmer and quieter this year!
I love Home Depot because I want to do most things myself, and I can learn with their classes.
I overheard my husband on the telephone tell someone "Coleen likes Home Depot even more than I do! She can spend hours there and if I loose her, I just go to the garden section to find her!"
I do love home depot and as a craft resource, it is the best!
I would do light bulbs for sure! It can get quite pricey when you have to replace so many. Thanks!
I love home depot because you can get so much done yourself and everyone is always so helpful!
I would probably do light bulbs or get something for my parent's home. We are still in the apartment phase of our life so I we could find something for them for sure!
From the experience I've had at home depot, I like them because they are beyond willing to help you with whatever, even if it's just giving their opinion.
Gotta love home Depot, I need to insulate water heater and update more efficient light bulbs.
I love the Martha Stewart items at Home Depot!
~Jenni
Home Depot is the candy store of home improvement! Wonderful giveaway.
Weather stripping for the doors for sure! (Newest follower, right here)
Once stop shop for tools, gardening, grilling, you name it. Love HD
Thanks for this great give-a-way! We were just in home depot today. Our house is pretty energy efficient, plus we run on propane and well water so I would have to say we would use the HD money to make our chicken coop more efficient and on low voc paint for our baby on the way's room!!!1
I like HD on facebook!
I love Home Depot for soooo many reasons, but the most important one: its where my husband and I met for the first time :) (and all the air guns...love me some air guns)
I enjoy my email subscription to your blog. Where do you get your energy?? LOL We've replaced most energy guzzlers (we had an audit done by pros, awesome results), we're waiting to see if the dishwasher or water heater will go first. Whichever dies first, gets replaced first.
Janet
If we won, I would use the gift card towards a new fridge, our fridge is almost as old as time! I want a shiny new energy effecient model :)
I would love to get all new appliances for my kitchen but that isn't happening any time soon. I am going to get new lightbulbs, seems like all our old ones are going out at the same time.
Wow! What a great giveaway! I love Home Depot! I wish I had more money to spend there! The next thing I need to buy that is energy efficient is a washer and dryer. Mine is about as old as our marriage, almost and they're not doing so good. I'd really love to get front loaders!
Heyyyy!!! I love HomeDeopt!!! HD is like home, your bday HD song says it all! Everything I need in one place, people that know what they are talking about and super helpful!
We currently have all Energy Eff lightbulbs, dual flush toilets, High Efficency Washer, Dryer, Stove and Fridge...our fabulous HE Dishwasher was wonderful, but 9 months ago the front electrical panel caught fire. We have fixed the damage to the kitchen but have yet to replace the dishwasher (dont have the $) so handwashing it is...this would super help!!!
Hi, Stacy
I am a follower and I would use this gift card to go towards a new washer and dryer. We have a very old set and its not energy efficient at all.
Thanks for this giveaway.
Vanessa
Stacy,
Like your new profile picture by the way. I love home depot because they are great services and a lot of products to chose from.
Vanessa
Living in Minnesota (yes it gets way tooooooooo cold!) I would love to add insulation in our attic!! I would also love to replace some old doors in our home that leak in the coldness!!
I love Home Depot because every time I go there I get inspired to try something new!!! They also have great deals on everyday stuff like toilet paper and cleaning products!!
We want to get a better energy efficient dishwasher.
I have slowly been working on getting energy efficient lightbulbs in all of our fixtures. What a great giveaway!
I like Home Depot for the classes that they offer for me to learn how to do things in my house.
I love getting inspired when I walk into Home Depot! They have everything I could ever want to update our home!
Love the paint at home depot!
Ooooh there are soooo many things I could do with a gift card from Home Depot! It makes me giddy just thinking of the projects I could do!!!!
I would like to change more light bulbs -- slowly changing them one at a time.
Thanks for offering the giveaway!
I NEED to replace some weatherstripping around doors before the snow flies.
I am saving for energy efficient windows. This would be such a saving in keeping the bills down.
I like Home Depot because of the HUGE variety of products they carry. It's one-stop shopping for the home and ALL the craft projects:)
I love Home Depot for providing the products to be able to do home projects.
I have already replaced all of my light bulbs to more energy efficient ones. The next thing I would like to do is to get all energy star appliances. Right now only my dishwasher is but I'm currently saving up to get an energy star refrigerator. (I am already a subscriber to your blog.)
I love Home Depot because I can find all of my DIY project items at a good price and they have a big selection to choose from.
We need storm doors and new windows.
I love shopping at Home Depot. It's nice to be able to do all your dream shopping in one place:) Also, I can buy plants and flowers there as well.
I love Home Depot and have been looking for new refridgerator for my garage. My present one is really old and costs a fortune to run.
I would love to get a new fridge or new thermostats!
I love Home Depot because A) it is across the street from my house so it supplies my husband and I with all that we need for projects around the house and crafting. I also love to change paint colors in my house (not sure if my husband likes it since he does most of the work) but Home Depot definitely helps when those moods get me!!
New windows!
Home Depot has great service and low prices! My next energy efficient purchase will be a new stove. Mine is about 20 years old and wastes energy! Thanks!
We just bought our house this year, and it needs insulation really badly! We're trying to be much more energy efficient, winterizing the house, etc. :-)
Here's the reason I like Home Depot . . . Their customer service rocks! I've been to another home improvement store in my area (not mentioning any names) and I'll drive further to go to Home Depot because their employees are so helpful. They really make sure you have a great experience every time, and that's why I give them my business!
My next energy saver I'd love to do for my home is an energy efficient washer/dryer.
I love the free children's classes they have Home Depot every month. AWESOME!!1
I'm a new follower!!
I love Home Depot's well trained staff. They are so helpful and patient to answer all of my questions.
I love all of Home Depot's well trained staff. They are so helpful and patient to answer all of my questions.
We are working on changing out EVERY bulb in our house to the energy efficient bulbs
I'd {love} to have a new energy efficient washing machine. We upgraded our dryer, but we're waiting for the washer to die. ;)
I like HD because the people in their paint department actually know what they're talking about! (And, bonus....our HD has a hot dog stand that is the BOMB.)
I love HD because of the smell :) honestly it brings me back to my childhood going in to get wood for my dad's various summer projects! but i love that they have like EVERYTHING i need to craft :)
I want some energystar windows it would keep us so much warmer/cooler too!
My next energy friendly project is to replace our two patio doors for more efficient ones.
My favorite part of HD is the paint, garden & seasonal.
I would like to reseal our doors to keep in the heat for winter. I would also like to change out some light bulbs and fans. Thanks for the chance to enter.
I like Home Depot because they always have neat ideas for me to implement in my home. Thanks for the chance to enter.
My next energy saving project is to caulk around all our windows. We have a fairly new house, only about 3 years old, but the wood around the windows has warped, leaving gaps that need to be filled in.
Looking forward to replacing our old windows with energy-efficient ones.
I like Home Depot because it's where toI go for ideas, inspiration, and well it's my retail therapy. Like right now they have this amazing glass mosaic tile... I'm loving it for my laundry room.
Oh Stacy! This is a fabulous giveaway! I love HD. Whenever we have a project, we go there first. I go there just to get ideas for projects! I could just spend all day there looking at all the fun gadgets and home improvement ideas :) And I go there for MDF board for when I paint (with oils -as in landscapes) and they have all thicknesses and some smaller sizes so I don't have to lug a 4 x 8 board or have it cut into a million small pieces (they love that), but if I want a 4 x 8 I can do that too. As for my next energy saving project, that is easy - we need to replace the windows in our basement - we did all the windows upstairs about 5 years ago - but the basement still needs to be done. Thanks so much for the chance to win this fabulous prize!
I like Home Depot because they send me 10% off coupons all the time. And, with the amount of money we spend there..yahoo for the coupons!
I really really want all Energy Star appliances. We have an energy star dishwasher so Id like to complete the set. I also want to finish converting all of our light bulbs to the energy efficient ones.
I think some new energy efficient appliances would be grand!
I really love Home Depot for all of the amazing customer service. Every time I go I never feel weird asking questions or for help. Best customer service Ive encountered yet.
I'm looking forward to getting an energy star refrigerator. The one we have now is a dinosaur.
Energy efficient : a dishwasher mine is not working :(
It is cheaper and bigger than Lowe's ;)
I love Home Depot because they are a one stop shop and their prices are lower than Lowe's. Who doesn't like to save a buck or three?
I LOVE Home Depot. Actually, Friday night my husband and I went on a 'date' there. Turns out that there's NO ONE there on a Friday night! We had the store to ourselves. We refinished all of our kitchen cabinets this weekend.... all thanks to HD! =)
We need a new door. We have replaced two, and are saving up for the third. My husband is pretty good at all of the environmentally friendly/energy efficient stuff. All of our light bulbs are good, and we've been hanging up all of our clothes on a clothesline outside... I guess the electric dryer is a MAJOR energy user! Thanks for the giveaway!
I like Home Depot because I can find anything I need to help make our house a home that the kids will remember growing up in. Thanks for the chance to win!
i'll take an energy efficient appliance.. a new washer asap! thanks for the giveaway! :)
i like home depot because it's so BIG.. it has everything!! thanks for the giveaway!
Given we're renters, as much as I'd like to make the switch on major energy efficient appliances, I think our first step will be converting all of the lights to energy efficient bulbs!
I love Home Depot because when we were moving last year they were the only store to have the moving materials I needed!!
I want to get a new set of energy efficient laundry room equipment :) I need a washer and dryer!
We live in base housing but all of our light bulbs are energy effecient! :D
I'm a follower of yours!
We love Home Depot because we to DIY & Home Depot makes that possible!
I really want to get our windows all replaced. Some of them are newer but some of them are the original storm windows in our 29 year old house and I think new windows would really help with our heat/ac
Home depot is probably one of my ALL TIME favorite stores! haha! My husband is obsessed with home depot more than anything and we go there for basically everything! We just bought our house a few months ago and are in the process of painting everything so we are in there at least twice a week!
I would love to put in new windows and a tank-less water heater. But there is always a project in our fixer upper so we live at Home Depot some weekends.
Insulation- we have a 1950's brick rancher and in the winter, from our kneecaps down, it's another climate!! Also, would love a tankless water-heater.
More insulation here! thanks
I like HD because it has what I need for my one hundred year old house!
I would love to get an energy efficient dishwasher. Unfortunately it just isn't in the budget. Right now we are working on sealing up all of the drafts in the basement so we don't loose heat.
I love how helpful everyone at Home Depot is. We bought a fixer-upper a couple of years ago and we have spent so much time in Home Depot we know many of the employees on a first name basis. They have always been really nice and answer all of our questions. My son loves the kid's workshop too!
We are weeks away from purchasing a home built in 2000 - which you would think would be more energy efficient than it really is. My dream has always been to have a solar hot water heater - as a family of 5 - we go through a lot of hot water, both in baths and dishes :)
Why do I like Home Depot? What's not to like - you can completely renovate your house or build a new one with materials from there! Love, Love, Love that place. I really love the new Fall Style Guide they just published - lot's of great ideas for my house I'm buying in December! I keep forwarding pictures from the Guide to my hubby at work, he can't visualize without pictures, so it's been super helpful!
We'll start with changing out lightbulbs because we're renting and can't really do anything about appliances! Once we have our own place that will definitely be priority! LOVE Home Depot
I would like to change out our lightbulbs in our ceiling fans (they are up really high) to match our energy efficient bulbs in our other lights =)
I also am ADDICTED to home depot. Sometimes I just go there and wander around. I like that I can go there and find almost everything for my DIY projects, I wish they would attach a hobby lobby/ Joanns to our home depot. I would move in! haha
I want to get an energy star washing machine (top loader)
I would love our next energy efficient purchase to be a new refrigerator! Our current one came with our house and it has got to go!
The next energy efficient thing I need for my home is a Water Heater.
I love Home Depot because everyone is so friendly and helpful every time I go in and they always have what I need in stock!
Just signed up for your RSS feed.
Our next energy efficiency endeavor is adding more insulation in our attic.
I love home depot b/c it's easy to send my hubby to go get whatever we need for handyman projects! it's just down the road from our house.
I could use a new energy efficient water heater for my home.
I like Home Depot because it has everything that I need for my home and garden.
I would love an enegry effienct washer and dryer
I would love to get energy efficient windows!
I love the home depot near me because the workers are so helpful and friendly!
I love the Home Depot because the closest one is a road trip to a great little city with fantastic shopping! ;)
The next item on our agenda is insulating the attic of our house and our whole shop. This gift card would be great to buy some additional insulation!
My husband and I are building our dream home (YAY)!! We're really making an effort to be as environmentally friendly as we can. Soon we'll be putting in the insulation and after that we'll be looking into energy star appliances. The gift card would come in really handy!
I could spend hours at Home Depot! And it's actually a place that my husband and I can both enjoy! I can always find what I need and the staff are so helpful!
We really need new weather stripping in all of our doors.
I like Home Depot because they have so much variety I can always find what I need and there is always someone available to help me out when I have no idea what I am really looking for!
I want to seal up my cracks for winter
I like Home Depot because they have better quality items.
I like Home Depot because I can get anything I need for my house there.
I want to weather strip my front door next because it lets air/heat/stink bugs in and out.
I need to buy both a dishwasher and a fridge...yikes big purchases!!
I would love a new energy star fridge.
I like Home Depot because their prices are usually the best.
Having recently changed out the lightbulbs and moved to a more energy efficient kitchen (one at a time all the old appliances died...) - and since we've already done the whole window-coating thing... I think the next is a new tile roof and attic insulation... good thing Home Depot is right up the street :)
I would love to update our insulation to improve efficiency in our home
I love Home Depot b/c of all that they have under one roof. Its no frills all layed out for you to see the variety of a particular product appeals to me when I am shopping for home products. I like to compare and touch, Home Depot has done a great job of making that happen. I also really like their paint dept.
I need a programable thermostat so we can control our heat/air, reduce our costs and stop all the "flipping" of the temperatures by the 6 peeps in the house. It's driving me batty!
I need to outfit the entire apt with new light bulbs, plus I'd love to get one of those energy meters to see where we can lessen our usage.
ps: I'm a follower
We've been slowly switching our lightbulbs for the energy efficient ones.
I LOVE Home Depot because we are living in our first home together, (that is an older home) so we are still having a ton of fun tweeking it to our liking. :)
The next energy efficient thing we are needing for our house are the regulating faucets and shower heads!
I love Home Depot because it's Orange! I'm not even kidding! I also love the feeling when you walk in...so much you can do to make things pretty in there :)
my next goal is to change out the lighting in my kitchen!
home depot is the best, so far everyone i encounter is helpful, they are convenient... not to mention they are the ONLY big hardware/home improvement store where i live!
I'd really love to get all new windows but that ain't gonna happen right now! $$$ ;) So instead, I think it's better insulation in the attic.
I love Home Depot beacuse they really have everything I need for my home improvement projects. Plus it is nice and close to our house! :)
My fridge is 18 years old and so not energy efficient. I so need a new one. Just love strolling the aisles and getting ideas.
We'll be adding ceiling fans - keep the AC bills down in the summer. (Planning ahead, I know..LOL)
We have used HD on all our home improvements. Love them! Would love to update to a water saving shower head. Thanks.
I just got all new energy star appliance in the kitchen and my laundry room. After over 18 years...my stove was over 25 years old...they just started breaking all at once!
I already put in a water saving toilet in my downstairs powder room...so my next thing to get is water saver toilets for my upstairs bathrooms.
I love Home Depot. That didn't used to be the case. I was a Lowe's fan even when HD was more conveniently located to my home. But recently I've started to love HD again. Whenever I go there they always have knowledgeable people to help me out. Lowe's has cut staff and it shows. I'd rather go somewhere where I get great customer service!
I love Home Depot. I usually head over there on my lunch hour to window shop. :) The next Energy efficient appliance I need to replace is the washer or the dryer.
The reason I love Home Depot could also be the reason I hate Home Depot. I love them because they always have exactly what is on my list. I usually find things that aren't on my list that I need, too, though.
we would probably finish replacing our light bulbs - we are about halfway
My next energy-saving purchase will be window insulation. I live in a rental so won't buy new windows but don't want to pay for the heat loss or endure the drafts without my plastic coverings.
I love Home Depot's flowers and holiday section
I love Home Depot because they sell everything! And my experience with their employees has been nothing but positive over the years. Thanks!
This isn't particularly groundbreaking, but I want blinds to save energy. I only have curtains now and they don't block out much of the sunlight. The west side of my house warms up really quickly and having blinds would help immensely. The Home Depot has these awesome faux wood blinds for under $50 so this gift card would buy 2 - enough to cover both of my living room windows!
I live in a trailer so the first energy efficient thing I would want to do is properly insulate our house. It's ALWAYS cold in our house during the winter and it's soo hard to keep it warm.
I realized that I like Home Depot last year when I was introduced to the crafting world. I didn't realize all the many things that you do. In fact, I think that at least two our date nights have been to Home Depot where we meander the isles and dream of the many things that we could do! It's always fun!
I want to sew some awesome opaque curtains to help block out light, which will not only save energy in the summer, it will also help my husband and I get a better night's rest!
I love HD because of their employees. They are so helpful. And it sure doesn't hurt that their prices are great, too!
So many projects that need to be done at my home to make it more energy efficient, but...The next energy efficient thing I plan to do in my home is buy a tankless electric hot water heater! Then I get to start saving up to replace 15 windows
I love HD because it's a local company & I like supporting businesses from my home state (GA!)
I am becoming a permanent fixture at Home Depot. With purchasing a new house there are tons of projects to accomplish. We are now in need of a refrigerator, washing machine and dryer. Anything helps right. love your blog!
I like Home Depot because every time I go in there I get all kinds of fabulous ideas!
I desperatly need new insulation, so that will be the next thing I do to become more energy efficient!
I definatly need insulation in my attic, our home is almost 40 years old and only has the original insulation. That should help with the high electric bills in the Texas heat.
I love Home Depot because there is so much to buy! I always have a list going of things to get at the Depot.
I would love to be able to replace the toilet in the master bathroom. It hasn't been replaced in ages and I believe wastes water.
I love the home depot because I actually have memories of going their with my dad to redo our house after they first bought it. Good times with my sisters grouting and tiling our future rooms.
I would SO LOVE to win this gift card from Home Depot so I could buy insulation for my old house (101 years old). My heating bills are horrible (about $300 each month during winter)eeeek! I get so stressed this time of year...knowing they are coming. I hold of and hold off turning my heat on..until we can't stand it anymore. My son has helped me do what we can do, but we really need insulation (that I can't afford all at once). SO, thanks for the opportunity to enter.
I LOVE Home Depot because they are close to where I live and since I love creating it's like walking into a candy store for me. I also love that they have people and classes to help you learn how to DIY. Thanks Home Depot!
I like Home Depot for the customer service! Our local store has so many people willing to help direct you to what you're looking for, or give advice on what exactly you need for your project. Even carrying bulky items to the register and even to the car! It's always a pleasant experience!
We have some plumbing issues that if resolved would save us money. An old fixture needs to be replaced and a leaky outdoor faucet needs...something!
I desperately need a new oven ... one with a door that closes without having a chair leaned up against it. And energy efficient, of course. :)
The thing I like best about Home Depot: straight lumber. It sounds crazy but their lumber is way superior to Lowe's.
one of the reasons i love home depot is that it's a family thing. my brother is a HUGE home depot fan and i think some of that rubbed off on me. ;)
I'm a follower- I would love a new door for our house! A better storm in the front, both for insulation and to better show off our historic door... and a replacement door in the back because the current one with a single-pane window is SO COLD!
We just bought our first home which is an 1950's fixer upper so we are trying to be energy smart with light bulbs, appliances, and any other ways we possible can.
I like home depot because I have found the best vanity sets for our bathrooms. I love going and browsing to find new ideas and low prices.
I'd like energy star oven and fridge

Love Home Depot because we enjoy DIY projects.
Insulation! We have cold air that creeps in through outlets in this old farmhouse.
On my dream list of energy efficient items for our house is a new refrigerator -- preferably one from the 21st century (if that tells you how bad we need a fridge!).
I love Home Depot because they have everything -- EVERYTHING -- you could ever want or need for a DIY or home renovation project!
We are trying to get a new roof (I'm sure that would save some energy somewhere) and a new back door, it's rotted out so water, air, and you name in come and go as they please around here.
I like Home Depot because when I go in there I feel like I will come out with something that will help me accomplish something fantastic at home, be it a new mirror, paint, a hobby knife, a ceiling fan, a microwave, a stencil, a door, I think you get the point, there are sooo many things we've bought from HD that help keep the ship sailing around here.
We need new windows! Those are next on the list even though I'd like to do some solar panels.
I like Home Depot because they stock things that no one else does..and they have Dunkin Donuts on the way in :)
I am swapping out all my old light bulbs for the new energy saving bulbs.
I now have energy star light fixtures & washer & dryer but I am now wanting to buy energy star appliances!
I like Home Depot because they have some many selections for home projects.
I like The Home Depot because I can buy EVERYTHING I need for my home in one stop (if only I could organize myself for a one stop project) & it has an orange logo:)
If I could do ANYTHING I want to my house i would add solar panels!!!
Goodness, Home Depot is like a home that is not assembled with all the fixings! I would love to give my house some color!, new blinds, a grill, organizational options! How would I pick? :)
I need some lightbulbs! Slowly trying to switch out to the energy efficient!
I love home depot because they are the best at what they do. Shopping at the 'other guys' just isnt the same!
I love Home Depot because its close to my house and has competative prices. The next energy efficient thing we want to do with our house is completely remove our old attic insulation and replace with new/improved upgraded insulation (hopefully eco-friendly as well).
I hope I can replace my dishwasher with a more energy efficient one. I love my new Samsung fridge!
I LOVE Home Depot. Every errand I run includes a trip to HD. Usually for paint or lumber. Now that it's cooling off here in north central Texas, I get to fire up my miter saw. Woo hoo!
I really want to switch out all my lightbulbs to energy efficient ones. And, now that I JUST moved to Las Vegas, I need to find ways to stay cool so I don't run the AC all the time!
I love Home Depot because most of the workers are totally awesome helpers! They don't make me feel bad, as a woman, for not knowing about something!
New windows!!
I would use the gc to purchase some much needed insulation.
I love Home Depot because everything I have ever purchased from them has been of great quality and competitively priced. The quality of their home installations have been great also.
I love Home Depot because all of the sales people are so knowledgeable about ANYTHING you ask them! Also, I love love love the fact that they will cut things for me and I don't have to get my husband to do it when I get home!!!
I would like to get one of those new pottys that use less water when they flush.
I have purchased energy saving washer and dryers and light bulbs. I am doing things one item at time.
I love Home Depot because of the free classes they offer. The are fun and informative,
I am also a new follower on GFC.
We are going to be removing a window from our bathroom this weekend, for a number of reasons. Energy savings definitely being a factor (Why were windows in the tub area so popular 30 years ago??) My husband and I go to Home Depot on "date night" and pick out projects to help update our very old house! I love the smell of pine!
I'd like to replace six windows in my house. The ones we have are very old wooden ones that have huge gaps around them, even a few cracks in the glass. I've already replaced three (all by myself, thank you). Hardest part is convincing my DH to drive me to the store to get them. I wear the toolbelt in this house; that's why I love your blog.
Honestly, I do love Home Depot. For many years I have resented going into old fashioned hardware stores and paint stores. The men who work in them always look down their noses at women, and treat you like you're a moron. Hello, who's laughing now. Those old bastions of macho he-men are now just about gone. I wonder why......
I can walk around HD looking for what I need and not be hassled by condescending men. They've got everything, and, if you're lucky, you can find an expert who'll actually give you helpful tips on your project. Frankly, I gave up on Lowes because I had soooo many bad experiences there. HD wins hands down.
The next energy efficient thing I plan to do is upgrade to DIY insulated curtains.
I LOVE Home Depot, I don't just like it. It gives us regular peeps the materials and access to people with the know how to take design, construction, remodels etc into our own hands. Love it.
We're upgrading our water heater to tankless soon.
Home Depot is a man's version of you girls' craft stores. It's like tool heaven.
We have been working on energy efficient and earth friendly changes for many years now. My latest thing is that I am finally making myself take advantage of all the bulk items our wonderful food co-op carries. So many options for not buying items with lots of packaging exist but I have just ignored them, or used plastic bags when I purchased them. For many years I have tried to keep and re-use the plastic bags I used (saving the bag labeled: basil for each time I buy more basil), but now I am seriously trying to use the bulk items more and the plastic bags less. I am not allowing myself to buy more olive oil unless I have remembered to bring my glass bottle with me that I keep olive oil in, or the old glass jam bottle that I use for my cinnamon. I've still got a ways to go, but I've been making some great strides!
I love being able to just stroll through Home Depot and find all manner of helpful things -- from hooks to shelves. I even found a carved dowel (balustrade?) last week that we will transform into a scepter for my daughter's Halloween costume!!!
I love Home Depot because it is no longer just a mans paradise, but a WOMANS! I can't help but love the smell of construction. Just walking in and looking around gives me loads of ideas for the next to-do projects at home!
I also follow your blog :)
The next energy effecient thing we will do in our home is likely light bulbs. We have been making a point to replace the bulbs in our new home but this is something we are going to buckle down and do!
The one thing I want to get to be more energy efficient is a whole room heater and cooler so I only have to turn it on when the room is in use!
I Home Depot because I can always find what I want there!
I am not one to shop in department stores for fashions very much but give me a Home Depot and I am in heaven. Helpful staff that can answer any question and shelves that always have just what I need. Makes me swoon.
I need to winterize a bit and this gift card would do the trick and also get me a couple of the LED bulbs to get me started.
Thanks for a GREAT giveaway opp! I would seriously love a new range/microwave!!! :)
I am already a follower!!! Fingers are crossed!!!
I would love to replace my faucets with low flow. With 3 littl boys who love to let the faucet run non stop this will definently help!!!!
I love the home depot because they carry all I need. They also price match, so if I ever do find a better they will honor the ad!!! Such. Convenience!!!
Can't think of anything else to make the house more energy efficient - recently replaced the heating/cooling system, have newer double pane windows, new roof and attic insulation, all lighting is by fluorescent blubs, appliances are newer energy efficient models....
I love Home Depot for all the supplies for those endless home and yard projects we're always working on ~ and they sell the best brand of fluorescent light bulbs!
Liked Home Depot on FB
Our next energy efficient purchase would be new windows! Our current ones are awful!
Home Depot is where we live since we're trying to upgrade our house, they have everything we need with great prices!
We close on our new home on 11/11 and yesterday we noticed a ton of light bulbs blown out. The house hasn't been lived in for a year so the first thing we will need to do is replace all those bulbs with energy efficient bulbs.
floolow gfc (jtwark) and next energy efficient purchase will be a low flow toilet
i like home depot because they have a big organized store and lots of associates to help
I plan to by a more efficient and larger fridge!
I love Home Depot because they are close to my home and because they have nice associates that try to understand what I want when I call it 'a thingy'! AND I want to by an energy efficient Fridge!
I am going to put a cover thing on my cooler!
I like Home Depot because I love their scrap wood you can buy and the nursery!
My husband and I plan on installing new energy efficient windows [huge project!] this fall. We live in Florida, so the temps can reach well into the upper 90's to 100's during the summer months. We love The Home Depot, because they have some of the best prices and greatest products around!! Hope we win!!!
We have just a few more lights to swap out for energy efficient bulbs. Then next we plan on looking into ways to enhance insulation. :)

I love Home Depot because the staff are both friendly and knowledgeable. It is a HUGE help to a DIY novice like me! ;)

We need to upgrade our air conditioner!
I love Home Depot because the employees are so helpful!
We are looking forward to upgrading our shower heads to be more water efficient!
Follower on GFC (charity/ccboobooy) I like that Home Depot has helpful clinics. I really enjoy all of the DIY clinics on the weekends.
I never knew they made an air conditioner cover! When I saw that on your post my jaw dropped. I am so getting one of those!!
I love Home Depot because they continue to surprise me! I'm not gonna lie, Lowe's is my go to store for basic needs (it's also in walking distance of my home). However, every time my appliances have chosen to die Home Depot has always come through with a sweet deal & excellent customer service! But it also seems to be the only place I find the various little things I need to finish my projects. =]
We are in need of replacing our windows!
