I bought a Weber grill from them this past spring. For $50, they had it at my house, hooked up with a tank of propane less than 3 hours after I bought it. Yeah, good luck getting that kind of service at a big box.
I have a Menards and Home Depot within a mile of my house. I drive about 5 miles to Ace instead.
