Your local ACE
 

Recently I've had the need to stop into the hardware store and the people at ACE have been exceedingly willing to help and the store I frequent is always staffed very well.

Yesterday I was on my way to Kmart for a hygrometer battery, and dreading going there because they're always under-staffed and it's impossible to find help if you need it. I wasn't sure if ACE carried this little battery, but I know the people were friendly, so I thought, what the heck, why not give ACE a shot. They had the battery!!!

Reason for the post is, if you like good old fashioned "helpful service" check out your local ACE. :D

It is sad to say but I haven't seen one in years.

They really are good. Plus they seem to carry some things I can't find anywhere else.

We have an ACE Hardware right down the here in town. When I don't feel like driving across town for something small I hit good ol ACE! :tu

Always someone at the front door to help you as soon as you walk in. And, you don't get the deer in the headlights look when you ask a question. :tu

It's a little bit of a drive to my nearest one, but when I can't find something elsewhere, they usually have it.

"ACE is the place with the helpful hardware folk!"

I worked for ACE back home for a couple years while in school. Cutting rebar, loading concrete and etc. They really train thier people so they are happy to help with confidence!

Re: Your local ACE

I go to our local one all the time. THey have stuff that the big box guys don't.

Re: Your local ACE
 

I'm glad they helped you out!

I'm a big fan of OSH. Those guys put Home Depot and Lowe's to shame in regards to price and customer service!!

Where I live we are fighting like crazy to keep that small town feel while being part of that Atlanta metro. I have to say that we're not doing too bad at it.

We still have a main street lined with merchants and a 25 MPH speed limit as you pass through there. One of the corner stores is our good ol' Ace Hardware. Whether you need paint, bird seed, a saw... or local grown honey and homemade lye soap - Ace is the place. (Do they still use that slogan???:))

I love a nice Ace.
