I truly hate disagreeing with people...but...I feel I have to draw attention to the fact that although Patricia used \"Puntos de Venta\" (plural) and Andrea agreed, all Patricia\'s Google references state \"Punto de Venta\" (singular)...just as I put it. Personally, I have never heard it used in the plural...only in the singular.
But I could be wrong [certainly wouldn\'t be the first time :-))))]
