Without a doubt, that's true. The busiest New Hampshire store that's north of Concord has got to be the Plymouth Super Wal-Mart. It's always open and almost always busy. People drive from all over to shop there.

In Meredith, it's all chains: McDonald's, Aubuchon, Shaw's Jackson Star, Cumberland Farm, Rite Aid, and a Hannaford's now on the way.

Where's the best little independant hardware store around for inventory and price? Amsoil synthetic oils-paint-glass & screen repairs & a million different items is in the exact central geographical spot of the entire state, and that's Ashland, NH, and at hardworking prices.....at the ....ASH HARDWARE in Ashland NH, one mile up the hill from Rt 93-exit 24, and don't be going over the 30mph Ashland speed limit or it will cost you 88 bucks!
