  2. I went to two different HD's yesterday and both were quite busy. In between my two HD visits I stopped at Lowes (which was right across the street) and the Lowes had no customers.
     
  3. I'm not sure the point of the above as I don't see what value a sampling of 3 stores in a single geographic location would have?
     
  4. Right the opposite here. I went to Lowe's Saturday and it was covered up with people. I had to stand in line to check 2"x6"s.

    Parking lot at HD, which is a quarter of a mile a way, is almost always empty.

    Lowes is just easier to shop in. And it is always full of people.
     
  5. What would number of store would you recommend for a sample? What is the difference between a Lowes across the street from a Home Depot in a Dallas suburb or a Chicago suburb?
