Supplies for dogs, cats, small pets ... but also horses, cows and other small livestock. I have a bad memory that has not faded much over time. I think this place opened back in 2006 or 7. When it opened, there were bulk dog biscuits for sale. We got some, and within a couple of weeks, meal worms hatched out of them. Ew! From a brand new store? They must have bought old stock from some other store. On my recent visit, I did not see any bulk dog biscuits, and not very many dog biscuits at all. I am very, very careful not to get anything with ingredients from China, so I didn't see anything that really attracted me. I did notice Blue Buffalo cat & dog food. Along with some more common kibbles. There were a lot of leashes and harnesses for cats & dogs. What I don't like is that whenever I'm in a store like this, I have to keep an eye on my dog, who loves to find fallen kibble on the floor. She doesn't have any allergies, but I still don't like the idea of her eating anything I can't identify. We usually stop in for hardware items. That's about all this place is good for, in my opinion. Oh, and visiting the parrot.

We wandered in partially because they have been in business over 100 years, which is super impressive and noteworthy. We were looking for some grilling equipment and baking items, and found a whole array of things we wanted and could use! They had something for every budget and all good sturdy items. Also they had a lot of fun and quirky items like foldable blankets for hiking (packed into a tiny sack) and sayings for your wall. It was a fun shop to browse and discover some new items. The store was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. I found the aisles to be open and easy to navigate, and shelves were not overly packed. Great store to find what is needed!

She went to the front of the store and started chatting with a coworker. I waited. And waited. Finally, I went up to the front of the store, and on my way out the door I said "Thanks for your help." She replied very contemptuously, "You're so very welcome." I don't know, maybe they feel they have too many customers. If that's the case, I'm happy to help alleviate that situation.

Gill-Roy's has been around since 1945. Founded by Gilbert Morgan and Roy Trevarrow down in Flint,…read moreMi. Not too long ago they took over the local True Value hardware store. Hopefully, they help boost commerce here in East Jordan. I'm putting a spin on this write up. Looking at it from a different perspective... While at Gill-Roys I see a much needed tool for $20 that I know I can get at Sam Walton's place in Petoskey for $12. It's important to remember you can't fairly compare a 40 store hardware company in Michigan to a chain of 4,700 outlets across the US. The buying power differences alone make it impossible to compete in price. Next, the tool at Gill-Roys is top quality and made strong in the US of A. The knock-off at Sam's was made overseas and I question the durability. Then there's the availability of a knowledgeable individual to answer questions or guide me in the right direction. Most of the big box stores don't offer it, Gill-Roys has several friendly, qualified and experienced people to point me straight. Finally, I have to drive 40 minutes and wait in a long line at the major retailers. If I need that tool immediately, it's in my hands at work on the project in 20 minutes time. To sum it up, it's more frugal to make the drive to the city and pay less (sometimes), if you know what you need, can settle for a lesser product or are in no hurry. The advantages of local hardware, such as Gill-Roys, are convenience of location, experienced staff to draw upon and a better selection. Where else can I buy just 4 screws as opposed to a box of 100? 12/23
