Local hardware stores are it!

() If your local TrueValue has it, buy from them and save money.
My local Home Depot has few if any contractor trucks outside at 9am - they're all at other distributors. Electrical guys are all at EW (Electrical Wholesalers), plumbing guys are all at Shetucket (the local plumbing & A/C distributor).
Home Depot is very convenient to me - but I think twice before buying stuff there.
