Rona on Edmonton Trail is the closest hardware store to my home but I've just about given up on Rona as their selection is abysmal at best and often they just don't have stock. Tried to get both a 3 foot and 4 foot ruler at the Signal Hill Rona this morning, yeah that was pointless.
Thus I find myself just going to Home Depot, they seem to have a great variety of options and everything is usually in stock. Lowes, I just can't seem to like them as much as Home Depot, can't put my finger on it, possibly the store layouts, dunno. Reno Depot, ugh, 'nuf said.
