An aside... Menards
From Ohio on
we have seen lots of TV commercials for a store called Menards. Larry joked:
"The only store I know where someone can find both two-by-fours and
hemorrhoid cream!"
Not a joke
at all... We finally went to a Menards in Spencer, IL, and it had the above two
items and much, much more. I like to think that Home Depot married Publix and
they gave birth to Walgreens and Target and Rooms to Go. Go ahead, name an
item; you'll find it at Menards. As one
of the clerks told us, "If we don't have it, you don't need it!' This is
the only store I know of where a married couple can shop happily in the same
space for hours. And I say that as a wife who has trailed around after her
husband for hours as he tried to find just the right drill, board, screw,
adhesive blah, blah, blah. We did indeed spend a couple of hours there and left satisfied shoppers.
