I'm just wondering if this is common place now at the Big Orange Box?
I needed some PT lumber for my job tomorrow and made a special trip to the BORG to get it tonight. I parked under the cover on the contractor end, grabbed a buggy, walked to the door and it didn't open.:BangHead: It was 8:30 and the sign said open to 9pm. I could see workers inside but you don't think they would look in my direction do ya. I decided to walk down to the other end to see if it was locked. It was open so I walked down to the lumber end and ask a worker if they stopped selling wood after 8pm. He told me the door was locked and that I could just get it and check out on the other end. This store keeps all their buggies outside. I went to the contractor door from the inside thinking it would open and I could get a buggy from just on the other side of the door. Wrong. I was told I would have to go around and get the buggy and come back in the other door. Being worn out, I said I would just go somewhere else and do business. Went across the street and Big Blue's door opened, there was buggies inside and people offering to assist.
Anybody else experienced this? Maybe my orange store is just especially helpful to tired ole grumps that's already put in a long day and don't walk around the build several times in order to get the privilege of giving them money.
Rant over and out!
