How hard is it to have the system see the sizes that sell out, and order extra of those?
It sure makes me miss the well run mom and pop hardware stores. They knew what they needed and had it in stock and knew right where they were on the shelf, and had no computers. Just people that cared. That is the real issue.

We have a local mom and pop store that is pretty well stocked and they have a few stores locally so if one doesn't have it another will.
I laugh that where else can you go in and ask for advice on fasteners and wine and it is the same person. Yup, the sell fresh cheese curds, wine, deli stuff, horse manure, plants, trees, fasteners, electric fences, regular groceries and decorative fountains among many other things.
