I guess we are lucky up here in Edmonton, Andy. The closest Rona and Home Depot (and the second closest) to me are right beside each other. You can walk back and forth..

This is the bad part about living in the 'inner city' I need to move to the burbs so I can have such luxury.

Haha, Ryan, you must frequent the stores at Terra Losa? Those two are great! HD doesnt carry white PVC stuff though, but Rona does. Rona doesnt carry silicon(that is ok for tanks) but HD does. Its rather convinient!

Yep.. I am at the Terra Losa stores quite a bit..

Oh and HD does carry the white PVC (underground sprinkler parts) but i find Rona has a better selection. IF I need a fair bit though I'll usually go to Wolseley.

So I was in Rona yesterday, and reflecting on these posts... The real problem is that they aren't keeping all this stuff in the Reef Section, where it belongs. In fact, I couldn't even find the reef section in the Calgary Trail store. Shameful.

Ohh? Last time I was in HD, I only saw a few sizes of white PVC pipe but thats it? Hmm. Well I havent gone there for it since then, lol.
