rjR Posted January 8, 2016 Report Share Posted January 8, 2016 I do miss Menard's from ND- We also had Mac's and Fleet -Farm! The 3 stores that i miss the most on the west coast. Menard's does have a lot of good values, the after Christmas toy sales are on right now. Fargo ND also had Acme Electric, Northern Hydraulics and across the river was a Tractor Supply! However this area has more breweries in a 10 mile radius than existed in ND! So we have good beer available easier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 Thanks for the tip neighbor. I've been to the one in Evendale but the Menards in Lovekand is closer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsteve Posted January 9, 2016 Report Share Posted January 9, 2016 (edited) ya might want to wander over to their lumber section and check out the prices on their thinstock hardwoods. i found that, after shipping, the prices are just as good as where i purchase online. be careful,tho, lookin at the mahogany. imo, its a wood called meranti. apparently some menards stock walnut and cherry, but here we have oak,maple,hickory,aspen, and birch with some oak and maple unwrapped, s3s,varying lengths and widths, and very good prices. i also believe their other lumbers' quality is much better than the two other bb stores.
