Never had a regular hardware store in this town until 10 years ago.The general stores were pretty good in the 60s but they turned into beer and cigarette stores or closed up.I usually buy 16p gal. spikes by the 50 lb box or 35 lb pail.I had 2 picnic tables to finish last fall.Asked for 2 lb at a hard ware store as I didnt want a box full sitting all winter.Had gotten some grain and other items.Looked at the slip at home and saw that the spikes in little pound boxes cost 3.99 a pound.Had the store name on the boxes.I dont buy much there any more.I did find a 35lb tub at a salvage store for 15 bucks later.The big box stores will skin you bad .I buy 3/8 carriage bolt by the pound.They cost 12 cents each,Box stores get 50 cents each or 46 cents if you buy yhe box.A hardware store just closed in the next town.Had 2 owners since 1960.The new owner closed in 1 year.He wanted 20 bucks a bag for fertilizer that I pay 14 bucks a bag for.Stores the price like they have no competition fail fast.
