Lowes is pricy compared to HD and for a casual fixer-upper guy like myself, HD satisfies my needs.<BR/><BR/>That being said, I agree with their decision to discontinue their sponsorship. A) the economy sucks B) sale suck C) HD being involved in the olympics brings sucky results.

What leads a company leader to see a nice coffee shop and think "I bet if I opened another one right next door I could destroy their profitability and make a ton of money for us." <BR/><BR/>If the old HD in Oxnard is any indicator of what is to come we can expect nothing but brownfields blighting the once vibrant orange temples of the fliptards and their home equity acolytes. <BR/><BR/>I prefer Whitecap anyway.whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10180422369180931361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7514357.post-39705082511300411532009-01-09T20:57:00.000-08:002009-01-09T20:57:00.000-08:00HD going under?
