Just like Southern States, Do It Best, & True Value. It's been my experience
the family owned "co-op" stores have really good customer service.
Much nicer vs the two, big box behemoths.

When I'm near one, I'll visit a Tractor Supply store. Just like browsing all
the cool stuff they have but seldom buy anything.
