All the OfficeMax's and Office Depot's in my area seem to deliberately locate near each other-- it's the same with Lowes and Home Depot. It's a wonder they ALL haven't gone out of business yet.

3 years ago, I needed a water heater. I went to the Lowes store and bought the best bargain heater and then walked across the parking lot and bought the plumbing fittings from Home Depot; sometimes it pays to co-locate.

I never figured that out either. I travel a lot and it is that way in every city.
