Liquidation sales at those locations begin Thursday. http://abclocal.go.com/wjrt/story?section=local&id=4761457 I understand their Fenton location is also their HQ, but I really wonder. Is that location really the best situated for future growth. Located in a contracting & struggling Flint, vice growing locations like Ortonville and Grand Blanc which are booming? Guess it says they'll try to cling like lichen to a rock and try to eke out an existence vs competing in the bustling growing communities against the Lowes and Home Depots. So why can Gill-Roys thrive and James can not? One less place to buy the nails to seal up the coffin known as Flint Michigan. Sorry couldn't resist the obvious pun. Just gallows humor there. _________________ Biggie Tue Nov 14, 2006 7:35 pm    Display posts from previous:   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First
