We live in Southern Pines and try to patronize the local small businesses downtown before trying…read morethe larger chain stores. I have visited River Jack outdoor trading company twice. The store is small and crowded with equipment and outdoor products. the first time it was a busy Saturday and the employees in there seemed a little bit frazzled when I was asking for help with an item. My last visit wasn't much different except I was the only one in the store and the woman there didn't seem interested in helping me when I was asking her about hiking shoes. She quickly dismissed my inquiry and told me she didn't think I'd have anything that would work for me. I purchased over $300 of apparel for an upcoming trip but walked out without the one thing that I needed. I strongly believed that if the woman would've taken a minute to show me the room with nothing but hiking and outdoor shoes I would've found something. Not sure if she was the owner, but I couldn't imagine an employee brushing off perspective buyer. Not sure I will return . I went to Halfmoon outfitters and they were very accommodating and assisted me with purchasing other items I needed for my trip.

I called AAA Road Service, and they said they would have someone come to us in about an hour. We were parked on Broad Street in Southern Pines, right outside Wardogs Surplus store. After waiting about half an hour, a pickup pulled in front of our parked car, and the gentleman came up to me and said he would give me a jump. The man happened to be Peter, the owner of Wardogs Surplus. What a wonderful person. It's rare in this day and age that someone stops to offer assistance, and Peter didn't hesitate. This is the type of person I want people to know about and give his business all the support we can. Thanks, Peter, you're a wonderful individual, and I encourage all to support Peter's business when in need of his merchandise. Albert Riek
