Anyone have one near them? We have one fairly close and we went to it today. All i have to say is this is the closest thing to heaven imaginable :)

We have one, they moved into an ex-K-Mart. They've earned the title "red-neck K-Mart". A lot of import stuff, pretty low-end. We have a Tractor Supply right down the road and I enjoy my time there much more. Not that I spend a lot of time at either...

I did see some cheap motorcycles and such but in total some good stuff in there. WIDE VARIETY of items. Plus today was "no tax" day :)

What Home Depot and Lowes SHOULD be!!

Selling appliances isn't a garden store in my book ;)

They did have a Husqvarna 2554 for $2295. Looked pretty nice but no shaft drive.

LOL. Yeah but they wanna milk the "One Stop Shopping" to the max.

In Illinois, Rural King is a couple steps above Tractor Supply. Just about everything in our new Tractor Supply is of Chinese origin.

Note to self; Self? I shoulda been a redneck (kidding!!) no such luck on awesome stores like that in the greater Buffalo area. Heck.. we can't even keep residents here! I do have a TSC, but it's ~20mi each way.

You must have nicer Rural King stores down your way. Our closest is one step up from a having a dirt floor. They carry a similar selection of quality Chinese products the closest TSC or Big R store have.

The area Farm and Fleet was the store of choice in the past but it's been yuppified just like the other's I've been in recently.

Vote out that #%^##$ New York State Thruway and all the $$$ the employees make off it and start some cottage industries at interstate exits like the rest of the country does and maybe the residents might(have a job to) stay. It's time you guys took back that road!!
I drove across it this past Fall and was horrified to see things hadn't changed much since I left there some 35 years ago!!
You guys have got to take your state back from the government!
