Bad News

Bad news here, they just opened a brand new TSC (Tractor Supply Co.)store just 5 miles south of us and it is fully stocked with so much neat stuff. Will be very convenient, but will be hell on the hip pocket and me trying desperately to scrape together enouph to buy a case of BBC for Goshen. The trials and tribulations us old folks have to endure are tremendous.

TSC does have some neat things in their stores. I recall some years ago around Christmas they had an ad showing a RC truck. People wanted to buy them, but TSC wouldn't sell them.

I love TSC. I grew up in a small town that had one and they are still there.

Even driving the 4 or so hours from here to Williston ND it is worth it to shop at TSC. My next purchase there is a 17KW portable generator and a manure spreader. The old saying going broke saving money holds true there.

Every man needs a TSC close by. It gives you something to do on a rainy afternoon when you can't work outside.

Picked-up a very nice folding ladder that mounts to the tailgate to help my old bones in and out of the bed of the truck! Much better that climbing in and out!!!! If it stops raining long enough tomorrow, maybe I'll install it!

They're nice, but so are the really expensive AMP Steps. :-)

I have 2 tsc within 15 miles of me. Also have a rural king and a big r and they seem to even have more Wish we had a northern tool store. I would go broke there And then I cannot forget about the multiple rv surplus places

I just bought a new truck that has a tailgate step from the factory. Took all the labor out of installing one!

forgot about Grainger - I remember seeing their orangeish catalogs laying around at various places. Goggled them and found 3 locations in my zip code and all 3 have the same phone and fax numbers.
