Located on Oakland Park Blvd east of 95, this wood work shop is closing after over 200 years of…read morebusiness. I don't really know anything about wood work but the store did still have materials and accessories available (most discounted). They didn't have a firm date they would be closing so if you have any wood projects on the horizon, you may want to stop by and check out this store before it closes after over 2 centuries in business.

As longtime residents of Cypress Bend Condominium, in Pompano Beach, we recently had a sewage leak, from a fractured pipe. Polluted water got deposed into our lakes. To repair the damage to our lakes, the City contracted with Sunbelt Rentals to supply compressors to aerate the lakes, and get them back to normal. The 8-10 units are working very well. Today, I spoke with Larry, one of your valued employees, asking approximately how long the compressor would be aerating the lakes? Larry discussed the process and said it would take a few days and then the lakes would return back to normal. He answered all my questions, was very courteous, and represents Sunbelt Rentals in 5 star fashion. His effort was greatly appreciated and he has my utmost respect. If you need equipment, go to Sunbelt Rentals. You will be very glad you did. Great products and superior customer service. Thank you Larry!

I have been to this Harbor Freight many times to get stuff that I need. Most of the items are not…read moretop notch quality, but items that sometimes you can use for a few times for some sporadic task or chore. It's not as inexpensive as tools that you can get at a dollar store, but definitely not the quality that you might get at a Lowe's or Home Depot, for example. In the past I have bought some screwdriver and they have not held up as good as other higher quality brands, but they were good enough for the task at hand. I went to check on some indoor/outdoor heavy duty extension cords and I was really surprised to see many types, lengths and prices. I could choose between heavy duty, light duty or general use....good to know..... One of the guys working in there was really nice and customer focused, establishing some conversation as I was checking out.

A True Blessing in a Stressful Time…read more I am writing this with a heart full of gratitude. Recently, I dealt with the immense stress of having my car keys stolen while I was out shopping. When I called the dealership, I was quoted a staggering $700 for a replacement for my car--a price that felt truly overwhelming. By the grace of a friend's recommendation, I found my way to Smiley Fort Lauderdale Locksmith & Key Center, and I am so glad I did! They were able to provide a brand-new key and clicker for a fraction of the cost. They even offer a spare key (without the clicker) for just $50. I want to give a special thank you to Max. He treated me with such kindness and professional respect. It wasn't just about the keys; it was about the wonderful, honest way he conducts business. I left feeling empowered, relieved, and so very happy. If you ever need a key made, please don't let the dealerships discourage you! Go see Max. He is a master of his craft and a truly good soul. With love and appreciation, Rajee Narinesingh

Skip the Home Depot and Lowe's, try supporting a local business. We popped into this True Value…read morehardware store a block or two off of Federal Highway to pick up some household bits (probably made in China, but let's not focus on that!). Very narrow aisles, but they are densely packed with all the tools, bits, bobs, paint, mailboxes, and other stuff you need for your home and your office and anything else where you might want to hit a hammer into a nail. The staff is friendly and very knowledgable. As I mentioned, it's a small shop. Only 8000 square feet, which is dwarfed by the much larger and higher shelved) Home Depot that is usually around 100,000 square feet. But don't let that put you off. These folks know their stuff!

What they both offer is a staff is a knowledgeable, friendly helpful service. If you have a question, someone there probably has an answer and unlike Home Depot or Lowe's it is more than likely a correct answer. Both are small, serious hardware stores without the added carpet, appliance or other such non traditional hardware items which for me has always added up to quicker, easier more convenient as well as successful hardware shopping.
