Wisconsin is losing three Home Depots. No loss to me; I never shop there and prefer locally-owned Farm & Fleet, a HUGE farm supply store. If you can’t find it at F&F, you don’t need it.
Fleet Farm (A Love Song)
by J.Krueger-sung by OTTO
(The Happy Schnaaps Combo)
Now men we don’t like shopping much at least not in dem malls
‘Cause all you ladies wanna do is wander down dem halls
We just don’t understand, we’d rather wait out in de car
Or even better yet just drop us off we’ll find a bar
You want us to take interest girls but we don’t give a darn
‘Cause we do all our shopping out at Fleet Farm
Fleet Farm...Fleet Farm
When I’m feeling down it’s like a shot right in the arm
You women got your fancy malls but men we know real charm
We’re headed for the aisles at Fleet Farm
HEY !!
HEY !!
HEY !!
Ain’t nothin’ you can buy inside a mall that’s worth a darn
That’s why I’m headed for the aisles at Fleet Farm
Fleet Farm...Fleet Farm
When I’m feeling down it’s like a shot right in the arm
You women got your fancy malls but men we know real charm
We’re headed for the aisles at Fleet Farm
Not many women, not many children
Mostly men, real men
The smell of tires, and shiney screws
Extension cords, in orange and blue
Fishing tackle, aluminum bats
Guns and knives, cool hunting caps
Lotsa plumbing, lotsa lumber
A million tools, it’s all a wonder
Aisle forty-two, automotives...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle forty-tree, farm...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle turdy-one, light bulbs...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle forty-seven, work boots...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle seventeen, bows and arrows...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle twenty-four, nails...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle turdy-nine, cement...WE LOVE IT !!
Aisle fifteen, rat poison...WE LOVE IT !!
HEY !!

Someone needs to tell Home Depot that no one needs bedding plants in Wisconsin in early April.
Local stores are just getting around to setting up bedding plant displays while Home Depot is putting their (dying, frostbitten) plants on closeout. (That was my experience last year.)
