Business is very slow for us (hardware). It usually is around the holidays but even more so now. Whether it's the economy, gas prices or whatever, people just aren't spending money like they used to. I heard a report on the news that retailers took a hit over Christmas too. I had lunch at a Waffle House today. The waitress said that a couple of days ago, over a 10 hr shift, they only took in $85. The manager is sending people home early because there's no business.
