Tractor Supply Co

[Ductape]

Went to the Merrimack store today. Picked up a couple gift cards ........ for my FIL and BIL. They had some great sales going...... 20% off Carhart coats.20% off wood burning stoves. 10 - 15% off alot of iitems. Lucky for me, i didn't bring much money with me !!! I would have done a 'lil Christmas shopping for ME !! There was a checkout line the whole time i was there, very busy today. I did buy myself a couple jugs of Power Service diesel addative, was on sale for $12 sumthin / 96 oz. Something the gas stations really gaf you on this time of year !! I'm wondering what their sales are gonna be the day after Christmas???

Whats-Her-Name and i went to the Merrimack, NH TSC today...... and i have great news !! I had heard a rumor a while back, and it has been confirmed by the employees at the Merrimack store. The new Tractor Supply in Tilton will be opening May 7th !!!!!! NICE !! No more driving to Merrimack for me after that. The new location will be in the former Ames Dept. Store on Main St./Rt. 3 ....... at the Tilton/Franklin town line.

Hey that is good news, so it seems like I can either go to Tilton or Merrimack! both about the same distance, plus I can stop in at MB Tractor while in the area.

Lets get through this winter and hope for a nice spring........planting

I was by there yesterday, and it wasn't open yet. I've heard that they had some problems with the local FD, and will be opening in August.

Littleton, NH opened last week. 1 hour drive from me.

I own stock too and continue to hold onto it.

I really think their concept is a good one, it's definitely a store targeted toward people that frequent a site like TractorByNet. I agree with most everyone, they still have a lot of warts, but I still like to shop there.

For guys like us, it's a good thing to have a nation wide chain store targeted towards our life style.....

I expect that their management watches this site regularly, if they don't, I will send them the link.

Can we come up with some suggestions for improvement?
Can we come up with a list of compliments, what we like about it?

What does everyone else think?

-----------------------------------
Great concept.

Less trinkets.
Less pretty clothes.
More farm/ranch items at WalMart prices.
Staff training on terms
