Why do Walgreens and CVS build their stores close to each other? If you see one here, the other is next door or across the street. Just curious.

I guess for the same reason Home Depot and Lowes do, hoping to outsell and then close down the competition.There can be only one!

Zoning? Sometimes these things are in the works for years, and parking/traffic flow is a huge consideration.

Around her Lowes and Home Depot are across from

each other in a bunch of towns.

We have a new discount store in town called

Ollies Bargain that has had unreal crowds since opening.

We have really cut down going to Wally.

Don`t think Sam would like they have become.

In a little town where I shop there is this combo at an intersection, one across the street from the other.
