Albany- Father's Day is Sunday.

If you don't have a gift for Dad, you better start shopping. Home Depot was busy Thursday night with Father's Day shoppers, many picking out big ticket items such as stainless steel grills, John Deere tractors and skill saws.

If your budget isn't that big, they've got less expensive items on sale, like a wood piece drill set for $34.99.

"Because it's over a $300 value for the tools," said employee Jerry Davis. "For the price we've got it selling as, you can't beat it."

Home Depot sells more hardware and garden ware around Father's Day than pretty much any other time of the year.
