Sad Panda February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 Ok am I stupid or what. I went to Lowes and asked for egg crate and the guy looked weird and said what's that so I explained what it looks like and he said "no we have nothing like that". Is it under some other name or is it a specialty type item? I never needed any before so am in the dark over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RW09903 February 10, 2016 Share February 10, 2016 Ok thanks guys. Feel stupid asking for egg crate. The guys at my local hardware store looked at me and said "We don't sell eggs here. This is Homedepot." I asked them to direct me to the large industrial light isle and there they were. lol I know that feeling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squishie89 February 11, 2016 Share February 11, 2016 (edited) First time I went looking for it I went to Home Depot and asked the guy for light diffuser and he looked at me like an idiot, and then I said egg crate and he knew that and showed me to it.

Rob A February 11, 2016 Share February 11, 2016 (edited) At my Lowes it's on the back wall by the ceiling tile. If you get the Lowes app on your phone it will tell you where items are in the store. I have found that useful for odd things like egg crate. I can't tell you how many times I've asked for help locating something and had someone tell me they don't carry it, and then I use their app to find it and discover they really do have it.
