Depends if it makes High Profits?

I read that many cities and large towns have more than one B&Q and the Kingfisher group will be removing those from places that have more than one and replacing them with ScrewFix which is also owned by Kingfisher.

Use Homebase and a small local DIY store and Wilkos just because they're nearer to me.
