This thing about choosing a building supply store

Becoming more and more amazed at people who, without negotiating prices in any way, go to Byggmax and buy what they need. I am a small customer, spending about 10,000 SEK/year. I went to the nearest lumber yard/building supply store and set up an account. Got 20% off right away. Then the prices are a few kronor above Byggmax. When I need more than 5-10 of an item, I ask about the price and they usually lower it by another 20%. It also includes cutting (if you help lift), loading, coffee, and they know things if you ask. Feel free to pick from the scrap bin if you do it neatly. For me, it's also closer, but that might vary depending on where you live. The downside is that they are not open on Sundays and screws are very expensive. How do you shop for building materials?

I bought all the regular timber and roof at Byggmax, L-element and all sheet metal and screws at Bauhaus, and bought the paneling at Beijer. Everything transported by trailer.
This is how big the construction is

A newly built gray shed with a sloped roof, featuring a partially open door and double windows, surrounded by a gravel path and greenery.
