Every sale they have goes for days that only private members get a discount, there may be another tier in between, I don't remember for sure, but only the last couple days is open to non-membership holders get a sale price, which also is far inferior.
I told them it was nothing but a private club and should be refused many of their licenses
Also I was wanting a pressure gauge of some sort that was on sale for 29.99 or something, thought I'd go ahead and pick one up but not use it unless it became neccessary, he made the mistake of telling me there was also a 25 percent restocking fee for "non-member" returns, that was when I told them what to do with everything they had
There has become too many other stores around like A major Walmart, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, Atwoods, a huge old time Hardware store downtown, to really wish to put up with a few dorks who think too highly of themselves.
