Sleeping with the enemy...

[Dave M]

I think people are a little to quick to accuse the small business's of gouging. When in fact they are less likely to stock their shelves with garbage. Most small stores don't have acctuaries (number crunchers) that can figure out that if we sell this many and this many come back etc.. etc.. we still make money. Mom and pop just aren't set up for that.

I had my "come to Jesus" with Home Depot over some roofing materials. I won't bore you with the details but it's safe to say that DaKines post pretty much summed it up. JUNK, that's what both Lowes and Home Depot sell, for the most part. Even if you stay with name brands don't forget the Levi story.

I also like his/her thoughts on island economics although I'm sure there will be some input regarding the creation of jobs etc..

Blessings,
dave
