I'm sure there have been things I have purchased in the past that did not meet my expectations, but I cannot think of any right now. We do have a family member though, that has a bad habit of either not purchasing the correct item (size difference) or buying too many of an item. I dare not say anything without being given a mean look or a demeaning comment. We do have local hardware stores, but sometime, 4 miles is too far for them to drive. Ugh. Another great podcast! Great job Team!!
