Thankful for small business

As I was planting and replanting, it became obvious more potting mix was needed. I drive to close-by big box store, park in handicap spot near entrance, put on mask and discover entrance line is 200 feet away. What to do? I decide to go to small business, helpful hardware place. What a joy. I park at curb, don mask, go in, find a clerk, ask a question, get an answer, go to checkout, pay, go to pick-up area and a clerk places a bag of potting mix in my trunk. Less than 10 minutes. Thank heaven for small-business helpful hardware place.
