    What a TRIP!!! Best hardware store, ACE????!!!! I happen to agree, because the CSR was outstandly helpful and the store very convenient to us Suisun residents. especially within walking distance. But due to the GREEDY rents of Heritage Park Shopping Center Property management, constantly upping their rents, even during the worst of this economy>>IMO>>, this very helpful, albeit pricey store HAS CLOSED. Now if will be a PIA trip across Fairfield just to get a handful of Nut & bolts. Shame on the property management of that center. I could be mistaken, but just drive through and see all the vacancies. And I personally know of a dentist that moved out of there, buying their OWN office suite in Vacaville, and paying less in the mortgage OWNING her space than the rent she was paying in Heritage Park, A FACT!!!!
