ITT: people who dont buy tractors
Tractor Supply sells much more than tractors though
They sure do, but it's all overpriced.
TSC doesn't sell tractors.
Wow ig I always just assumed. Never actually been inside, just walked by
It's in the name, Tractor Supply. So if you have small tractors...they supply parts for them. Lot of the stuff I see is for small operations & at a high enough price, for what it is.
Additionally, there's clothing, some gun stuff, hunting/fishing, animal feed, and a bunch of lawn decorations made in China.
Tractors and tractor accessories?
Ok Hank
Even it's name is a lie
Dog food.
They generally have a lot of animal supplies, for pets, farm animals, and wildlife. Food, medicines, etc. Lemmy folks seem to really like animals.
...Like most humans.
The one near us has a self serve dog wash. I can take my dogs and use their water, their shampoo, their towels, their dryers, and not have my bathroom covered in dog hair for $10.
Boots and tools
Pet food.
Dog treats, toys, meds
Pet food, equipment, repair parts, tools, livestock feed if you're a homesteader or farmer or whatever, they sell lots of different stuff.
Construction stuff for home remodeling.
I think you are forgetting that there are a lot of hobby farms that were using TS to get their chickens and feed. Lots of gay hobby farms. These people were the profit margin for TS.
I know you didn't mean it that way but I kinda want to see what that would look like.
You’ve never seen a gay hobby horse?
No one ever falls out of the saddle, I don’t know why. Must all be great riders.
They also sell rubber horse stall mats which are way cheaper to buy than actual flooring if you're building a home gym. There are other places to get horse stall mats though.
To be fair, that's the case in the VAST majority of Lemmy threads..
If there ever needs to be a ramen boycott, our voices will be heard!
