One-stop shopping is the name of the game in these busy times and Home Depot supplies all the artillery under one roof. Whether you're grouting the bathtub, wallpapering the kitchen or fertilizing the lawn, the supplies are there. Weekend how-to classes are just icing on the cake for the throng of homeowners in this growing metropolis. Sears Roebuck and Co. was runner-up.
Our Pick: HOME DEPOT
The old hardware stores still hold their charm. They keep us nostalgic for the days when nails were kept in old wood bins and packaging consisted of crinkled brown-paper bags. But, nostalgia aside, these megastores may not be as attractive but the selection is just unbeatable.
