I had the chance to visit Albert Lea's newest store today…read more I have to say that I am excited to see a retailer of this caliber come to our area. The brand new store was clean and well organized. There were a wide variety of brand named tools and farming supplies available. Other local retailers will need to step up their game if they want to compete.

Bomgaars has a nice store but I have big issues with this place…read more 1. Many items not marked with prices! I asked at the checkout why I cannot find prices. The employee at the register said they are bad at it. 2. They stopped stocking the chicken Science Diet cat food. I bought it by the case. When I do find it on the shelf, there are only 1 - 2 cans and they are all dented. The last one I opened was all moldy. I changed brands and shop somewhere else for it now. 3. The garden plants outside are not watered and they are fried to a crisp. 4. The female employee that runs the first register. I am usually at Bomgaars 10 times a month. I go to the register to check out. Not once have I been able to check out in her lane. She tells me to go to the other lane every time! So I have to pick everything up and move. 5. The candy is hard and seems old. 6. I bought a bucket for the bucket sales at least 9 months ago and was told there are frequent bucket sales. I haven't seen my first one yet! 7. This store caters to men. I cannot find a woman's shoe/boot area! Only men's and kids. Wives do most of their family's shopping. Your store has seemed to have forgotten that! I'm done shopping at Bomgaars.

I bought a used reel mower the other day. It seems that no one knows how to get a decent edge on…read morean old push mower any more. I had a tough time finding anyone in Albert Lea who would do it. I dropped it off on Thursday and just like promised it was ready to roll on Saturday. Nice work. Great conversation. My kind of shop!
