I'm sure they don't fly every where. I'm in a area that is speckled with small rural communities. It seems there is a DG every couple miles or so. I have only been in a couple of the stores a couple of times. I noted nothing negative but my stops were short, never walked through a entire store.

I've been impressed with their rapid growth and the fact they get by with a minimal structure, a slab and a standard metal building that goes up in weeks and ka-boom, they are open for business.

Smart guys in my book.... Stock market says the same....
