So...




Everyone has snow and ice right now. I am not the only one who need salt or ice melt. I know this, and I expected to have to really search for it. In the quest for ice melt, I stopped at Lowe's and searched the store. Of course I couldn't find anyone to ask if they had it or not. After walking the entire store and not seeing any, I headed to customer service to try and pin some one down and ask.
When I got to the counter, there were several people milling around and one harried looking clerk. I heard someone ask if they had salt and she responded "NO". "We aren't getting any in either. We won't have any more. WE ARE DONE WITH SALT."
Excuse me? Done with salt? It isn't even the end of January yet. Well, I guess she hasn't heard the forecast, 3 - 5 inches more snow on Monday. Too bad we aren't done with the snow!
