It was nice when that went away for a while in 2020. It isn't like I have much of an option around here.

It's been 10 years since I've lived in the midwest... meanwhile, living rent-free in my head:

Plumbing, electrical, appliances too!
The saving will always come right back to you!
You'll save big money...

And here's a Brit's view of Menards. Pay attention to his version of the jingle towards the end.


And thanks for the reminder, I have some receipts to send in from last week...

I used to print the address onto several envelopes at a time to have one always ready to send off for the "save big money at Menards" 11% off. I still have it ready in my docs.

I miss the QS syn sales. And the QS filters on sale...like $1.49 or $1.99 or something for my Honda. I miss Menards. Had one close and I used to buy boxes of snacks and milk from them. Cheapest price on a gallon of milk anywhere around

Once I was shopping at Menards and realized all I had in my cart was food items. I joked with the cashier that I was going to go to Dominick's next (My favorite grocery store until they got shut down) and see what they have in table saws.

I don't make that joke about Aldi though because you never know what's in the Aisle of Shame. Two Christmas' ago, they had small chain saws for sale, and I bought my current mechanic's creeper from there. The thing outlasted my Craftsman creeper.
