I wonder if Home Depot will buy Lowes or vice versa.

Bummer, we really like Cabela's, but don't like Bass Pro at all. They just opened a Cabela's north of here (like last month!) seems like a bad move if they were about to fold.

I read about the buyout in the news yesterday. I don't like Bass Pro Shops at all, but I always like going to Cabela's. Hope they keep Cabela's true in it's current theme and brands.
