Shopping Local: ACE Hardware & Radio Shack

I first started shopping at when I opened my business, Home Sweet Home Pet Services. I learned very quickly that getting keys cut by a teenage at the big box stores led to keys that don't work. My business now cuts hundred of keys a year at ACE and I've never had a problem with them not working.

Today I walked in the door and was immediately greeted and asked if I needed help finding anything. I had several things on my list so I made my way to the grilling section. We have a new smoker and need wood chips and charcoal and of course I had questions. Next up was a new snow shovel and some pet friendly sidewalk salt. As I was walking the store I even found some wild bird items that will make a great gift for my grandma.

ACE Hardware & Radio Shack are perfect examples of how locally owned and operated stores give you personalized service. In my past shopping trips they have helped me special order a patio umbrella, pick the perfect shade of blue paint and even restored my ripped screen door.

In less than 15 minutes I had everything on my list and even got a bag of fresh popcorn on my way out the door. I always enjoy my shopping experience at ACE and will continue shopping there since they carry just about everything I need in one stop.
