Are Chain Stores On The Wane?

Question

I shop at both Border's Books and Music and a local bookstore. And I want to continue to have both options. Both offer what I need depending on what I want to get. I need both the option of local stores and chain stores. The reason I ask is I saw an online documentary made by two Canadians on Yahoo!.

Answer 1

Chain stores are on the rise, and you would likely lose you local vendor before the franchise.
