Answer 3

Menard's, ACO, Mann's do-it-yourself centers it depends upon where you'll be shopping( State)

Answer 4

Dig out the phone book or go online and search the yellow pages for lumber and home supplies. I remember Churches Lumber, Lumber Jacks, but there are many Ma&Pa places left.

Answer 5

There are a number of regional and one-off places.  Menard's is another big box in the upper Midwest.  84 Lumber is a lumber and building supply place HQ in western PA,  and there are local examples of Ace, Trustworthy, True Value, and Do-It Best with small and large stores.  I've lost track of others such as Furrow, HQ, Builder's Square, etc. that may have gone under in the last 10 years, or just pulled out of my local market.
