This weekend I discovered the wonder that is Rural King. It has to be the ultimate prepper, nut job, plowboy store. It’s amazing and full of the sort of people you thought only went to walmart. And they have bunnies and peeps too!
@cinoclav I love Tractor Supply and stop in at least once a month to get gardening supplies, pet stuff, boots, candy, overalls, cages - anything I could possibly need!
@ChadP My closest one is in Indiana, even though I don’t live in Indiana. Unfortunately, they’ve started charging me money to go to Indiana and to come back home.
Aw, man! That sounds like the kind of store my husband and I could get lost and go broke in! Closest thing we’ll have when we move to Hollister CA on the 21st is a place called “Ranchers Feed and Western Wear”. I have a feeling it won’t even compare.
Mad love for the Rural King! I always make the effort to stop at the one in Clarksville, TN when I visit Mom.
The only retail store I’ve seen where you can buy a a pair of boots, a shotgun, a tractor and a casket in one trip.
Around here the closest thing we have is Tractor Supply Co. To me it’s like wandering into a different planet.
@cinoclav Good place to spend a hot afternoon, they keep their units about 75deg.

Monticello, Indiana Rural King lover here. It’s one of my favorite stores.

I want to go to one. They’re way waaay out in the country though.
@sammydog01 If it’s one of the bigger locations, it’s definitely worth making an adventure of it.

Well, this is the only thing giphy came up with that didn’t involve The Beetles or narcotic substances, so it’s gonna have to do.

@sammydog01 Here’s some country truckin music, get a move on.
Up in Wisconsin and Minnesota you can go to Fleet Farm, where you can get your clothes, weapons, and milking machine accessories.
@craigthom Rural King is like Farm and Fleet only far more Funky.
@cranky1950 I didn’t say “Farm and Fleet”; I said “Fleet Farm”. Different store, different part of Wisconsin, different experience.

Closest one is 90+ miles. Oh well.
@RiotDemon So pack a lunch. They’ve got free popcorn.
@cranky1950 @RiotDemon
The closest one to me is 225.5 miles.
I don’t think one lunch would be enough for the drive.
