It's really nice to have a local hardware store that has just about anything you could want. The owner is about my age and he stays on top of keeping the latest stuff in the store.
The other day he told me he couldn't get the bolt salesman to come by on a weekly basis. I knew he seemed pretty mad at the guy. Well when I git there this morning I see he has pulled all their stuff and went with a much larger company. They said they would come by weekly and make sure all the bolt bins were kept in order and full.
This is where I get all my goodies from. It's a True Value store. Unfortunately I have a charge account there... It's all I can do to restrain myself when he gets new tools in.
