I was in buying an extension cord and I overheard an employee in the paint dept talking about an…read more"oriental" girl that used to work there that wouldn't go on a date with him. Shocking. And then I was in line with someone behind me. Another teller comes to the counter and the guy behind me cuts us and goes to him and the cashier gave us a look like, "oh well, you were too slow". Well I went to Walgreens to buy my extension cord and won't be returning to that dying hardware store.

I love "Teen Wolf." Not that horrible sequel with Jason Bateman but the one true "Teen Wolf" with…read moreeveryone's favorite Canadian (to Hell with you, William Shatner) Michael J. Fox in the starring role. Strip away with wolf makeup and what do you have? The struggle of a boy coming of age. A boy becoming a man, growing out from under his father's shadow. A man finding love. A man leading his fellow Beavers to victory in battle. And Boof. So much Boof. But forget all that. Forget Stiles and his money making schemes. Forget the Wolfmobile and the classic roof surfing scene. Cast aside Mick and the Dragons, the spring dance and Vice Principal Thorne. Strip away all this and what's left? Howard's Hardware, the store run by Scott's dad. Winer Bros. reminds me a little of that place.

I shop here all the time and the employees have never been anything less than completely helpful…read more Great selection and the quality of the lumber is orders of magnitude better than anything you'll find at HD or Lowes. Prices are a little higher than the big box stores, but to me the quality is worth it - saves me an hour round trip drive to Peabody, and I'm happy that my money is supporting a local business that's been part of the Cape Ann community for years.

What are you guys, nuts? First off Ben T. from San Francisco: Over here you actually pay more for…read moresurliness in the older employees. It's like a luxury tax. And how in God's name would you know you were in New England, otherwise. And Allison S, Seriously? Home Despot? Yeah, cheaper sometimes. More stuff there, true. But help? Come on. You can get people in orange aprons to ask you if you're being helped. And then they help you by wandering around for 45 minutes looking for the one person in the store who knows ANYTHING and can help you. Local lumber stores are pros. Sometimes surly. But there's a reason builders use them instead of Depot and Lowes.
