Even though most of us don’t live in caves anymore, thanks to Home Depot (HD) a section of our brain is still wired with hunter-gatherer instincts. This is why most of us crave shopping at some level. Sure, some men will say they hate shopping, but watch them go nuts in a Best Buy (BBY), Radio Shack (RSH), or Victoria’s Secret – a division of Limited Brands (LTD).
