I like a good hardware store, especially if it’s not far from my house, but for me the jury is still out on S & M. Every time I’ve gone into the store the sales people act as if I’m bothering them, rather than a customer. If I ask a question they act as if answering is a massive inconvenience. It doesn’t seem to matter who is working there, they all seem to have an attitude problem. In addition to the nasty looks and cold voices they never seem to have anything that I need. They always seem to have brooms and stuff like that, but never things I actually need. So, as far as hardware stores go, this one is seriously lacking. But if you need dirt for potting plants or things to sweep the dirt up, I’m sure they’ll have it.
