Has anyone ever had a paint color matched at HD or Lowes?

I went and got paint today at Sherwin Williams and was shocked when I got to the register and it was $50 a gallon. It was not near that much when I painted last year. I love their color options but def cannot afford to do a whole house at that rate.

I know Home Depot has color matching services, and was wondering how good they were, if anyone has done it.

Thanks!

    SW usually has coupons and specials.

    I have colormatched at Lowes and SW, worked out great.

  • I have as well and a lot of times they already have the Sherwin Williams "recipes" in their system, so they don't even have to scan them.
  • I've had paint color-matched at Home Depot with great results. We used Behr and it was ~25/gallon.
  • Awesome! Good to know.

    Unfortunately, I seem to re-paint yearly, lol.

    Ditto. We had them match our sheet set for our bedroom and it is perfect.

  • SW has tons of sales and coupons.  You can register at their web site.  You can get as much as 50% off...

    I did not have luck having HD match a Restoraton Color.  It was WAY off.

  • I think we ended up getting a Low/No VOC Benjamin Moore paint matched at Ace Hardware - but the color was from Behr.  They did a great job.
