Because people search for these, constantly, and a page that gets the answer right is worth more than a page that refuses to. The rest of this site is about the businesses that live here; every page in this section links back to the independents in the same trade, which is the honest way to have both.
Addresses, hours and coordinates come from OpenStreetMap contributors, filtered to the Bastrop County boundary, with phone numbers from the Bastrop Regional Chamber directory where OSM had none. Chain hours change for holidays and get remodelled without anybody updating a map, so treat what is here as a good guide and the retailer's own page as the authority.
