    10/28/2022 It's tough being a handyman's assistant.. The only way I can survive a trip to a store (that I am clueless what is where) is by shopping here.. I called to make sure they carried a 3/4 pvc union... and they did! Luckily, the saved it for me at the front counter... Unfortunately, I was informed I needed two.. So I had Ralph help .. So fortunate that they are nearby and helpful.

    I didn't know they sell pies until today! Now I have more incentive :) I've ordered some TWP stain from the store. They usually don't have that in the store, but you can order and pick up, and they have stuff from warehouse Wednesday and Friday so they good for me (as I only come out on the weekends). As many of you probably know it is so hard to get TWP. If you shop stuff a lot, make sure you join and get their apps so you can enjoy their coupon. I don't think they have much Black Friday deals or gardening special stuff but daily necessities with coupon is still good deal, especially if you are already doing grocery store next door.

    Ace Hardware stores are also getting bigger than before. This one in Elk Grove is a lot bigger than those older stores opened many years ago. The bigger store normally carries more items but provides fewer customer services. But this is not applied to this Ace Hardware in Elk Grove. I have many employees there who asked if anything they can help with. All employees are very friendly and attentive. I have never seen this level of service from Home Depot or Lowe's at all. The store is not as big as Home Depot but they have everything I'm looking for in my job. No problem finding the stuff inside. All the different sections are labeled very well and organized. This is a hardware store with personal service for my big or small projects.

    We are so fortunate to have a local, non-"box" commercial hardware store near us…read more.. It is the last of its kind in Land Park and we try to support it anyway we can! The staff are personable and helpful and it carry's many smaller items (like unique screws, nuts and fasteners) in small or singular quantities so you don't have to buy a "lifetime supply" for one project like you would have to at a Lowes or Home Depot!

    It's my hardware store. I've found the Goldilocks of hardware stores. JUST RIGHT. Pocket Ace- just,…read moreno. Emigh- across town, ghetto 'hood but not ghetto prices. East Sacramento- that closed, now it's a plant store. Who needs a hammer when you can have a succulent? Elk Grove: $$$, plus being asked if I need help multiple times is scary (five times in five minutes, rule of thumb). Newbert's: yes, this was the best but it's been closed for decades and is probably a cannabis dispensary now. Archie's: also closed. Don't get me started. Why: Selection: This store has pretty damn much anything you could need, with limits. Kitchen, hardware, tools, electrical, garden, paint, nuts, bolts, chemicals. It's not a warehouse, it's a STORE. So calm down if you don't have every option, you're going to get in the ballpark. This fall I found a great manure fork here (no I don't live in Iowa but it's a great garden tool and mine got "lost" in my last move). PS, the big orange didn't even have one. Price: I was pricing Weber bbqs this summer and the units here were 10% less than pocket ace or Elk Grove. That got my attention. I recently got a great shovel for $16.99 on sale. Yes, a sale. You will have a range of options and usually there is a cheap(Er) option than at other stores, and better made. Recently I was pricing shovels at Home Depot and their cheaply made unforged (but costly) shovels couldn't match the shovel I bought at Hollywood. Help: someone can help you if you ask but you can browse without feeling like you are being stalked. Oddities: my last time here while at check out a customer came in cradling a duck and said out loud "I have a duck that needs repair." No one was fazed. The duck, alas, was a decoy but quite convincing. Need I say more?

While browsing an automotive detail thread on Reddit, I came across a detailer who praised the use of a foam gun to quickly wash vehicles. I have seen in the past that some individuals use a pressure washer with a foam cannon attached; however, I have had a negative experience with a pressure, so I preferred to have a foam gun that could attach to a traditional water hose. After two failed attempts with foam guns on Amazon (both foam guns required a hard to find special water hose), I decided to do a traditional Google search. My search led me to Grant's Extreme Foaming Spray Gun, which was conveniently available at the Harbor Freight store in close proximity to my home. Based on the photos provided in the near-perfect reviews, I knew that this was the one! It happened to be Labor day weekend; therefore, there was a coupon deal for the foam gun. Upon entering the store, I was greeted by an employee as I made my way to the car detail section of the store (similar to some other stores, Harbor Freight includes the Aisle number online for each in-store product). Minutes later I was at home using my new "toy" to wash my car. As a tip use a foam wash (I included a photo of Meguiar's Ultimate Snow Foam Wash that I purchased at O'Reilly's) instead of a traditional car wash solution, you will see more foam while using less solution. Thank you EG Harbor Freight!

And once again Lowe's completely came through for me. I've always felt like Lowe's has a little more of the home and garden decor vibe compared to other hardware stores. It feels a little more curated and easier to find those farmhouse or outdoor pieces that actually feel pretty and functional. Not only did I find the perfect white trellis for the exact space I had in mind, but it was over 90% off. Total score moment. I also found the perfect farmhouse-style white rectangular planter for the bougainvillea I had just picked up, and it ended up looking so gorgeous together. Honestly I left way happier than expected after originally feeling disappointed not finding anything at the first store. Helpful tip: Definitely check the clearance garden section because apparently that's where the magic was hiding this trip. So glad I decided to make the extra stop because Lowe's really delivered for me yet again.

That was shocking to hear, considering helping customers load items is part of the job--and they have dollies and equipment for that exact reason. From the moment I walked in, the atmosphere felt unwelcoming and depressing. Employees openly complained about their jobs and showed zero effort to help customers who were purchasing large items they sell every day. There was no teamwork, no initiative, and no customer service. Another employee questioned whether my vehicle was big enough. I drive a Chevy Tahoe--it absolutely fits two carports. Instead of speculating, someone could have easily come outside to check or switched positions so a more capable employee could assist. If an employee has an injury or physical limitation, that should be communicated professionally and handled by management. Simply refusing to help without explanation is unacceptable. I manage people myself, and I would never allow an employee with that attitude to interact with customers. I live with multiple sclerosis and deal with daily pain, yet I still show up and do my job with professionalism. Effort and attitude matter. Because no one was willing to help load the carports--or seemed interested in completing the sale--I had to drive all the way home and send my husband back to get them. He was also frustrated by the service. While he was loading the items himself, the same employee told him to move the car while she remained seated at the register. If staff aren't going to assist with loading, they shouldn't be dictating how customers manage it. This was by far the worst service I've ever experienced at Harbor Freight. Lazy attitudes, poor management, and no accountability. Extremely disappointing. The main employee that was not trying to even help me was white, super short hair and light colored eyes. Earrings were dangling. Her color doesn't matter because I'm white too so don't come at me yall. Just mentioning this so yall can avoid her boo whoo self. I'll call and get a name later and update but damn harbor freight. Fire her asap.
