NICOLLET ACE HARDWARE

THIS IS A SUPERB FULL-SERVICE HARDWARE STORE, CONVENIENTLY LOCATED IN SOUTH MINNEAPOLIS (ON BUS LINES AND WITH A PARKING LOT!)--MEANING THAT CITY-DWELLERS DON'T NECESSARILY HAVE TO TRAIPSE TO THE BIG-BOX SUBURBAN STORES. THEY SELL EVERYTHING FROM PLUMBING AND ELECTRICAL SUPPLIES TO A FULL LINE OF PAINTS AND STAINS, YARD & GARDEN SUPPLIES, HARDWARE AND HOUSEWARES. THEY ALSO CUT KEYS, FIX WINDOWS AND SCREENS, AND RENT TONS OF TOOLS. THEY EVEN HAVE LUMBER. FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL STAFF. NEW PARKING LOT MAKES IT REALLY CONVENIENT. LOOK FOR THE STORE CAT NAMED, OF ALL THINGS, DEBBIE--SHE SLEEPS ON BAGS OF MULCH IN THE SUMMER AND IN A SUNNY WINDOW IN THE WINTER.
