How much is the minimum order now?
I think it was $15. There is a minimum for debit/credit cards for sure. Just happened to notice it out of the corner of my eye. Didn't matter at the time, as I was picking up a box of parts, pipe, and 2 gate valves.
I was ribbing the warehouse guy about fish people coming in (because I'm one of them). His comment was that he wished people knew what they were looking for before they came in. Parts wise. He said it was frustrating, as some people come in, don't know how many or what fittings they need, or how much pipe they need. Especially at closing time. So if someone was going there, I would recommend you think and plan through what you need, how much you need, and phone an order in. Possibly pay by credit card, then pick it up. The warehouse guys are "under the gun" to pick, ship, and order supplies for their major customers (the ones spending thousands of dollars a month). They don't mind selling to the public, but they don't have time to help someone figure out how many Ts, 45s, 90s and what length of pipe, or size they need. Nor do they like it when the floor or counter top is used for assembly layout. I understand, as I use to work in a hardware store. I guess the point is they would like to help, but also have things they have to do, and only a certain amount of time to get it done. So please keep that in mind when you go in - Have a plan, a drawing, a material list, and know your sizes.
