We announced the closing of 15 Home Depot stores back in May and have no plans to close additional Home Depot stores. Looks like you've already heard from one of my colleagues, but I wanted to clarify as an official representative of the company. Sarah Molinari Home Depot Communications information@homedepot.com Thanks!

Looks like you’ve already heard from one of my colleagues, but I wanted to clarify as an official representative of the company.

And when you use gift cards like I do, you need to pay attention. If I send a Home Depot gift card to my bro for Xmas and the HD near him is closing, he’s SOL.

If anyone takes the time to read up on this issue, it becomes perfectly clear that this tip is just a bunch of hot air, something for bloggers to talk about to generate more traffic to their sites. The fact that Home Depot is closing 15 stores in no way means that a gift card from Home Depot will be worthless on the first of the year. 15 Stores is a very small percentage of the total size of Home Depot. Get the facts, not opinions. I received an email from my mother stating the same thing, so I decide to search on Google for information regarding the truth of the matter.

If you were on the up and up, why not just say this doesn't apply to Home Depot? Lowes, here I come! Thanks, “THE TRUTH,” for looking out for your customers…NOT.
