I'm building a small, very-open- floor-plan house. One color on all walls and ceiling. Color…read morechoice is a BIG decision. All-time favorite color was from a company in England. Mike, the Mgr at Sherwin-Williams, worked his magic. On the third try I took a gamble on a whole gallon of paint. And he nailed it. In fact, now I like Mike's color better! And it's half the price. He steered me in the direction of an exuberant, almost-purple, exterior paint color, too. And today he guided me in choosing the best shade of "haint blue" for the front porch ceiling - to keep wasps from building nests (they think it's the sky) and to calm restless spirits. He suggested we go outside and look at the sky and view the color samples in natural light. Found the perfect one. Mike has a very keen sense of color. And he listens carefully. Thanks to Mike, I'm going to be very happy inside and outside my new house.

We used all Hirschfield products for our new home. Had a terrible experience with the stain peeling…read moreoff the deck. FOUR years ago. They sent out a nice young man who clearly was nicer than he was thorough. He never came back. And the "reliable painter" whom Hirschfields brought with them never called back either. So no big deal. I decide to restain at my cost and call them to ask if the original was oil or latex. The kid on the phone was rude, uninformed and would be unemployed if he ever treated any of our clients like he did me yesterday. I was to get a call back. Didn't happen. Hirschfields has taken down their Facebook page. Anyone want to guess why. I knew Bud Hirschfield when I was younger. He'd never run this place thus way.

These guys sold me some boots on ebay in Nov of 2022. 4 months later they fell apart, I sent them…read moreback on my nickel. On March 19, 2022 they contacted me and agreed they were defective and they sent me another pair which arrived after March 19th 2022. Now less than a year later I wrote them that the replacement pair has the same issues - cracked rubber on the uppers, cracked all the way through and no longer water proof. Today March 11, 2023 they told me the boots have a one year warranty. I am within the one year warranty but they do not want to honor the warranty saying the warranty started on my original purchase. I feel the warranty should start when the replacements arrived for the defective original pair. They were very sarcastic and belittling in their correspondence with me. The boots are Frog Toggs and junk. The Godfrey's True Value Hardware store is junk too. Beware as they do not stand by what they sell or the warranties they claim to give. Steve

When I'm travelling/vacationing, I like to check out the local thrift store/flea markets/antique…read morestores. This was a small, but nice thrift store. I didn't look at clothing or shoes, but checkout the housewares and non clothing items. They had a couple aisles of home décor/kitchen items/books, and a couple aisles of games/pictures/craft items. The best part was the prices! I got a couple candlesticks - someone painted red over brass candlesticks (I'll be removing that) - for $1 each! I also picked up a couple 2021 cooking magazines for .25 each. Note: I also discovered that Bearly Used Thrift Store is one of the 3 retail stores in town that the The Hubbard County DAC owns and operates. "These stores offer multiple benefits to the community and to DAC clients. Each store is a thrift-based store model, all accepting donations from the community. These donations are then sent to Bearly Used, The Tin Ceiling, or to the DAC Salvage Depot. These stores offer an opportunity for our clients to work in the community while helping to raise funds for the DAC programs. Along with used and re-purposed merchandise, these stores also offer an opportunity for the sale of popular items created by DAC clients through our center-based employment program." If I'm in the area again, I will definitely go back!

Compared to the big box stores, the customer service and knowledge is far superior. They stand behind the products they sell. My experience includes buying everything from roofing materials to hand tools. Prices are competitive and larger orders can be delivered. They have a symbiotic relationship with the Leech Lake Building Center in Walker which allows them to expand their geographic reach and provide more variety between the 2 locations.

Everything is discussed on paper and planed out and contracted! So easy! Baxter store is amazing!
