Sutherlands

Next door to K-​Mart in north Topeka, where there used to be a grocery store, there is now Sutherlands. A new hardware store coming back in town after being gone a while.
Although I went here before their official grand opening (and there were a few places where they still haven’t stocked items), I at least could see what was there and how things are going to be. It is basically stocked the way Lowe’s and Home Depot are stocked. Lots and lots of items, mostly covering household projects. Its a smaller store in size so it’s a little crowded in the aisles, except on the lumber side. Prices are a bit higher than Lowe’s or Home Depot.
On the plus side, its nice to have a half-​way decent hardware store on the north side of Topeka. I could see this play staying around a while due to sales to people from the north side of town. Much easier going here than going to the west side of town.
