Trusses And Such
Valerie had her soup swap last night so I took the middle 3 kids out to dinner. They had never been to White Castle, so I thought I would try out the new one in town. It has been a while since I had eaten WC myself. It always seems better in your mind, doesn’t it?
After dinner we stopped by Lowe’s to get some prices on trusses and joists. Note: if you are in the truss or joist market, don’t go to Menards. Lowe’s was so much easier to work with. They had a price list and actually gave some numbers to work with, answered my questions, and took notes about the project so they could “run the numbers”, whatever that means. When I went to Menards a week ago for the same information, they took my number and said they would have their estimator call me. I’m still waiting for that call.
Anyway, I found out that Lowe’s gets their trusses from a manufacturer close to where our building site is, so I think I will call them directly and see if I can eliminate the middleman.
I’ve ate at WC 3 times in my life. And of only ONE of those times did it say in my stomach. YUK!
