I wonder if HF uses the same predatory purchasing practices as Walmart? The sales volume may be a factor. Good question.

My issue with WalMart is the way that they end up running all the "mom and pop" stores out of business in any area that they open a new store in, so its not apples and oranges here.

Have not been in a WalMart in over 5 years and no plans on changing this. Unfortunately like Johnco the HF tractor beam does pull me in to their store quite often. Some of their stuff is hard to beat.
