There is a small ACE store about five miles away. Total dump. It’s a combination ACE Hardware, Flea Market, Sanford and Son.
My wife went there once and was so freaked out that she said she’d never go back. I had never been there and went to check it out. What a great place!
I’ve been in a lot of Ace stores and they vary all over the map. The one in our town here in the Bay Area is by far the best I’ve seen with the best people.
