The tractor supply near me is like a cross between a harbor freight and a tractor store. It has a lot of cheap chinese stuff, and lightweight farm equipment. A lot of the stuff (like aerators and such) are no better than the lowes stuff and will break in short order. What I do like about them is that they have a good nuts/bolts selection, a better selection of steel tidbits for welding, they have a pretty decent selection of tires for garden tractors, and link bars and pins for 3 point hitches and stuff right next to their trailer supplies. Before I buy anything at Lowes/Tractor Supply/Home Depot I always like to look it up on their websites and read all the negative reviews on what a piece of @#@ whatever that item might be. I can then find a more obscure and expensive alternative somewhere else and buy it there.
