Do you ever get one of those ideas where you think you are the only one to think of it? Well this…read morewas one of those times. I'll need to explain this. We recently had the siding replaced on our house. After this was complete, there were a lot of nails poking through the walls in our garage. Our garage is unfinished so the nails that were used to hang the siding came through to the inside of our garage between the studs. For aesthetic and safety I decided to hang some wall panels which is another story. Anyhow after the panels were up this is where the idea comes into play. I wanted to give the panels some support behind them but didn't want to pull them off the walls. First I thought about spray foam but then figured that I would probably need dozens of cans or more. So then I thought what about packing peanuts? I thought this was a great idea. So I started looking on line and at office supply stores. While I found some, the price was more than I thought it should be. That is when I found TwinSource. A 14 cubic foot bag was just over $20 or about a third of the price anywhere else. I thought how could the price be that much better? Did I figure the amount needed incorrectly? Well I placed my order and received a follow up email within a few hours that my order was ready to pick up. TwinSource is located in an industrial building. The process was super simple and my bags were waiting for me when I arrived. Turns out TwinSource is more than peanuts. They have packing supplies, paper products, cleaning supplies, food service supplies, boxes and more. I was very impressed with my experience and will certainly look to TwinSource for any future needs!

The exact same fixtures are still in the exact spots. Ha. I think it was mostly Asian food but there were some other ethnic foods offered. I visited around 5pm on a week day and there were only a couple things available at the hot deli (6 pieces of fried chicken for $4!!). Half of the store seems to be bulk purchases? There's a sign that says restaurant supply so I'm not sure if that's only open to specific buyers. This will probably become my go to International store.

I just wanted to give the gals a huge shout out because they have been super on top of it. I called about a product they didn't have in store - she ordered it for me with the next shipment and said she would calll me when it arrived ( but when people say that these days they don't really follow through) so I called seeing if the order had been made and she said yes and that she would call me when it arrived and sure enough she actually did! *tear* I couldn't believe it. That's Customer service there people! Also today when I was in I had a couple product questions and the gal on the floor was super knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. High five! Thank you!

Seriously, if you are driving by, there is nothing really to pull you into this place. The location is in an industrial area off of Kasota Ave and Hwy 280. Why would you? Well let me tell you why. It is open to the public and the place is a trip as it has everything from tools, food, clothing, kids toys, electronics, home goods, etc. If you're a fan of Axeman or Milaca Unclaimed Freight, it scratches all those itches of weird and random bargains. You name it, it probably has come through here at one point. Remember the game Operation? Ya pick out the the body parts with tweezers and try not to light the nose? $5 which was down from the discounted price of $10. The Easter baskets and stuffing I bought to load up as presents? Free. The dozen crayola colored pencils to add to those baskets? 50 cents each. The big screen TV's and some other things I saw were over priced but the lady said they would entertain all offers if they are reasonable. I mean, they had air hoses next to garden planters and straps and good grief! They simply carry a lot of random shite. Did I mention circular saw blades? Yep, they had those too. My guess is this something you need to be checking out on a regular basis. They're also selling some of the stuff on web. See the about this business notes for details on those shenanigans.
