Clinton Hardware Retirement Sale Announcement? We’ve officially hit the point where David said, “Alright… let’s make it hurt a little.” ?? EVERYTHING is now 50% OFF ? That’s right… if you’ve been walking around the store saying “I’ll come back for that,” this is your sign… because someone else is probably standing there saying the exact same thing! AND… by popular demand…?? THE AIR DANCERS ARE BACK!!! ?? Apparently they were enjoyed quite a bit by passing cars… so we brought them back out for this announcement! Come grab a deal, say goodbye, and if the guys are laying on the sidewalk from all that air dancing (remember David is retiring because he doesn’t move like he use too!) just pick them up and throw them back in the store ?
?? ELECTRICIANS… THIS ONE’S FOR YOU ??We’re looking for an electrician or electrical company who loves a good deal… because our electrical aisle is up for grabs! Switches, outlets, boxes, odds, ends — all the things you didn’t know you needed until you did.? The deal is simple:The more you buy… the better the deal. Help us clear it out, and we’ll make it worth your while. Stop in, take a look, and let’s make a deal before we turn the lights out for good ?
