Things that I once considered very basic have become extinct because
the business won't carry them in inventory because their computer
says not enough were sold last quarter to justify the space on the
shelf. Try buying a new plug to put on the end of an extension cord.
It is usually just as much money as a whole new cord. Wasteful!
We are being dragged into a changing world whether we like it or not.
RB who has acquired some of the tools but sadly not the skills as
yet to do much with them
I went to a major brand grocery store to look for lye, vinegar and
ammonia for tank cleaning. I found nothing. (By rights they
probably DID have the vinegar somewhere. But lye is near unobtanium.
Why sell ammonia for $2-3 for enough to clean windows for years when
they can sell windex for $4-5 a bottle that will last only a month or
two.
