Ok, what can I say, these guys... The place is a mess and not what you would call clean. It's like a last resort kinda hardware store. Around easter I returned two lamp shades for store credit which I have been using for many, many small purchases since. That's fun. It's like having my own money. Everybody pays with US dollars but I just take out my hand written receipt. Every time I buy something it gets deducted from the total amount and to me it is simply amazing how many small calculations can be scribbled on this tiny piece of paper and still it seems to make sense to the guys at Daffodil. Whenever I ask for a certain piece of hardware the clerk start's to wander through his store like he has no idea what he will find. With a certain frustrated air of defeat he will stubbornly keep presenting wrong items suggesting they might do a similar job to the item I've been asking for until I thank him for his effort and then I just end up driving to Lowes again where a hot dog is waiting for me.
