4 reasons to shop at the local hardware store
" Every tool is a weapon if you hold it right," Ani DiFranco.
1. It's alot faster since it is so small I can find what I need or a person to tell me where it is unlike at a box store where the people working there may or may not know where anything is outside of their aisle.
2. If they don't have what I need they offer to get it for me unlike the box stores where they say, " Oh sorry we don't have that." Then I have to drive somewhere else to get it.
3. It supports local jobs so even if it is a chain I don't mind shopping there. If it supports local folk then I am all about that.
3. I get to make friends with the people where I live so I don't have to drive to Burlington every time I want to interact socially with my fellow community members.
4. Here's my favorite...when the revolution happens I will have access to friends who are like minded and lots of tools if I need a weapon. This goes for grocery stores too where there might food which can be used as a weapon or a tool.
