I went a couple of weeks ago on their opening day. (Thurs)

Reminded me of Home Depot.

Thats what I was hoping for a decent sized hardware with a decent amount of stock and some choice.
Lowes and Home depot seem to open near each other in the US and the competition keeps the prices somewhat  reasonable.

I am hoping that they get in some halfway decent quality stock in, am tired of Bunnings being the reject shop of the hardware world and their monopoly in this country.
Whilst I am not sure that a duopoly is better at least it gives us some chance of getting decent quality materials.
