Yeh one thing we have a lot of here in the states is variety....as far as "chain" hardware / tool stores go I would say home depot is a mid level store. some stuff at lowes can be slightly higher quality lower end would be harbor freight....they all have there uses for example harbor freight is deffinitly the cheapest but the quality of there stuff matches the price. so lets say I would buy things that you want higher quality like I would never buy there band saw blades...however there are some things that are simple enough you don't need high quality a while back I bought a shop press from them the most recent buy was a air tank I chopped up to make a forge. I also get things like nitrile gloves there and some soft microfiber towels
