Rory O'NeillCORRESPONDENT
First of all, in a previous life, I've had a lot of previous lives, I used to work at a hardware store.
Rory O'NeillCORRESPONDENT
And one of the things they teach you back in the old true value days was that the typical home repair project takes three trips to the hardware store.
Rory O'NeillCORRESPONDENT
So if you're in the middle of doing whatever and you run out of nails or you need more grout, how handy would it be to not have to drop what you're doing, put the tools away, wipe your pants off or whatever, get in the car, drive? You know, you can get the replenished supply within just 20 minutes.
Rory O'NeillCORRESPONDENT
I mean, that sounds pretty cool.
Steve KellyHOST
Yeah, that makes sense.
Steve KellyHOST

Michael SchafferHOST
And that is a refrain you...
Michael SchafferHOST
I mean, the Ace Hardware or True Value or whatever it was on, on 17th Street, uh, announced it was closing this week, and the, the, the refrain almost immediately was, "See? There goes DC again.
Michael SchafferHOST
It's make, it makes life too hard for businesses." Now, that's what people say.
Michael SchafferHOST
If you already think that, every time a business closes, that will be evidence, uh, for you.
Rich HarshawHOST

Rich HarshawHOST
One of the things I did is I put together – it was a True Value hardware store.
Rich HarshawHOST
I put together something I called the True Value – service center and i went out and i got all of these guys that did all of the home services like um handyman and man i'm struggling to think painters just anything you could do around the house i got like 30 of them which was funny because i can't remember what they were at the moment but it was literally 35 years ago so give me a break Anything.

And, you know, we were affiliated with the US, but watching what was happening in the States at that time, you're right, it was probably early '90s, these, uh, Walmart was expanding, and they'd go into these small rural towns where the traditional hardware stores were the anchor store, and very quickly they were displacing a lot of these mom-and-pop startup retail stores.
