Jim's Hardware could be characterized by that Garrison Keillor tag line--If you can't find it at Jim's, you can probably get along without it. From fishing gear to flowerpots, paint to a small, obscure bolt, Jim's is a likely place to find it. And the service is friendly and personal--Jim or another staffer will take you there and help you find it, suggest a substitute, or tell you they're out or don't have it. The prices are reasonable and there are lots of unexpected stuff tucked here and there This is not to say they have everything, or keep things stocked all the time. But this old-fashioned hardware store is a welcome relief from those mega-box places. Check it out.
