How to Get Home Depot to Match Lowe's Price
Find the same item at Lowe's for less

Verify Lowe's has the item in stock
The item must currently be in stock at Lowe's — not discontinued, backordered, or out of stock. Home Depot can verify availability on Lowes.com directly.

Home Depot and Lowe's: A Two-Way Price War
Home Depot and Lowe's are locked in a permanent pricing duel for America's home improvement spending. Both stores explicitly name each other as qualifying competitors in their respective price match policies — meaning the rivalry is official and formalized.
For shoppers, this is excellent news. You effectively have a floor on prices: whichever store has the lower price on an item, the other one will match it. Before any significant purchase, it's worth checking both Lowes.com and HomeDepot.com to see which is lower — then claiming the match at the store where you prefer to shop.
The 30-day post-purchase window means you don't have to obsessively price-shop before every visit. If you buy a generator at Home Depot and Lowe's drops the price two weeks later, you can still get the difference back.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does Home Depot price match Lowe's?
Yes. Home Depot's Low Price Guarantee explicitly covers Lowe's. If you find the identical item at a lower price at Lowe's — in-store or on Lowes.com — Home Depot will match it. The item must be identical (same brand, model, size) and currently in stock at Lowe's.
How long do I have to request a Home Depot price match after buying?
Home Depot offers price adjustments within 30 days of purchase. If you bought something at Home Depot and find the same item cheaper at Lowe's within 30 days, you can get the difference refunded — either in-store or by calling 1-800-466-3337.
Does Home Depot match Lowe's online prices?
Yes. Home Depot matches prices from Lowes.com. When requesting an online price match, you'll need to provide the Lowe's product URL or show proof of the lower price. Call Home Depot's customer service or visit the store to initiate the match.
Will Home Depot match a Lowe's clearance price?
No. Home Depot excludes clearance and closeout prices, open-box items, and prices tied to coupons or special financing offers. If you're comparing a Lowe's clearance price, Home Depot won't match it.
Does Home Depot have to beat Lowe's price or just match it?
Home Depot matches the competitor price — it does not beat or undercut it by an additional percentage. You'll pay the same price as Lowe's, not less. Some retailers offer to beat competitor prices by 10%, but Home Depot is not one of them.
What else does Home Depot price match?
In addition to Lowe's, Home Depot matches prices from Amazon (sold and shipped by Amazon), Walmart, Ace Hardware, Menards, and other major hardware and home improvement retailers. The same rules apply: identical item, currently in stock, no clearance/coupon prices.
