Ace Hardware

The big chains like Homedepot and Menards are fine if you don't need much (if any) knowledgeable help. I've found that if I have a question about something I'm not sure about, Ace Hardware is the place to go. The guy who helped me today apologized for being slow to get up (he was stocking something on the lower shelf) and said he was 85. The thing is, the guy knew what he was talking about as far as product goes. That is invaluable!
