If you can find it.Don't believe so. They do sell cupped, checked, and twisted lumber though...
I'm only half kidding, some of the stuff is fine and easier on the budget...
Menards is cheaper.
Fleet Farm sells those brands I listed though. I just am always surprised a company the size of Menards for the most part only sells house branded power tools (I know they have some Bosch but not much).FIFY. For most home improvement jobs, Menards works fine. I'm not using the tools often enough to justify DeWalt for most items. I have a DeWalt impact driver and drill, but other than that everything else comes from Menards or Farm and Fleet.
Yep it is. I mean if you need a bunch of drywall/nails/etc Menards makes so much sense. But so much of their stuff is Chinese crap tools, frozen pizzas, and cheap toys.Don't believe so. They do sell cupped, checked, and twisted lumber though...

Yes but Harbor Freight isn't also selling conduit, Pex, shingles, trusses, etc.But that's the point. If you need a tool for a specific project that you may not use often, those cheap Chinese crap tools work just fine. It's the reason that Harbor Freight exists also.

No problem with selling a cheaper line of tools at all IMO, I just don't get the mentality of not selling a major brand to go along with it.
That can be true, but like I said when it comes to power tools, you can't buy those brands at any Menards which you can at the competitors.The quality of staff at each store varies so while Menards in your town might be awesome (knowledgable staff, well-stocked shelves, etc) it might suck in the next town. Same for HD/Lowe’s/etc in my experience.
Stopped in to get some paintbrushes and noticed the sign. Probably a good omen.

Man, the Craftsman stuff is everywhere now.The Red Craftsman thing at Lowes still freaking me out. I'll have to google what happened to the Milwaukee stuff.
