I was reminded how much I love Pinchik on a recent shopping expedition. The store always has everything I want - in this case Bondo, some stain, a dutch bolt lock, a padlock, a box to store some photos in, packing tape and snow melting salt - and I can't imagine anyone in the world who would prefer a trip to Home Depot or Loews. \r

If you phrase your first question correctly, and (by chance) to the right person, you can score your own personal shopper and the trip becomes a breeze. I am completely allergic to, and bored by, all home improvement projects but Pinchik makes the experience begin (at least) a lot easier. Unbelievably, at the end of this particular trip, the man behind the counter noted how much stuff I had and asked me if I'd like a hand carrying everything to the car, and a bloke from the back room helped me across the road with the heavy bag of snow melter.\r

You can't fault that.
