The verdict: Home Depot.
Winner: Home Depot. Of the nine products we compared prices on, Amazon was the cheaper option five times, Home Depot once, and three products cost the same on either site.
However, Home Depot has a price-match policy the makes it the clear winner. Bring in proof of a competitor's price being lower, and Home Depot will not only match the price, but beat it by 10% if you're willing to shop in-store. Because of the policy, Home Depot will always have the lowest price if you go to a store.
Online, Home Depot will still match competitor prices, but it doesn't offer the additional 10% discount.
