Is that at Erb and Ira Needles area?
You got it.

I always like Fairway too. Good quality stuff.
My end of town too, and they will deliver the big stuff free in
Waterloo.

Beaver not too bad.
They have a much bigger hardware/retail area than Fairway, but don't
have nearly the "mill" facility.

Can't
afford Glenbriar's plumbing or noses in the air, even when I didn't
curl...LOL

Onr thing Glenbriar IS good at, which doesn't cost a cent, is SERVICE.
But I know what you mean - their plumbing section is "dreams only".
Enough millionaires, multimillionairs and billionaires in "silicon
valley north" to keep the lights on in the store though- - - - - - .

I hear a Lowe's is setting up shop also!

They have to replace the burned-off roof before they can open.

I sure hope they are better than tha Home Despot and Rona stores in
the area.

From what I hear from Burlington? their prices ARE competetive.

I still like buying my lumber from Fairway Home in St Jacobs or the
former Beaver on Park Street and my hardware from Glenbriar Home
Hardware (or for the more specialized stuff, Spae Naur).

For quantities of low end bolts etc, nothing beats TSC - buy by the
lb.

Does this mean they will have to double all the US price tags before they
open?
