We have an excellent Runnings in our town and I buy everything I can from them even if it is higher price. In my world, Menards is known for low quality, especially in hardware items. I bought some Stanley hinges there and they lasted a couple of weeks. I replaced them with Stanley hinges from Ace Hardware and they have lasted for years. The Menards hinges were much lighter. You talk to suppliers and Menards is big enough that they demand a certain price and suppliers do what they have to so they can get the price down. I have gotten some excellent 2x10s at Menards and I have gotten some really bad lumber. One reason I buy at Runnings is that they have a lot of stuff I need that Menards doesn't. I appreciate Runnings and want to keep them around. If you keep track of which bushings you put where, you can run your own quality check. Maybe they are identical, maybe not, even if the label is the same. My nephew managed a Menards and they are not a nice bunch to work for. They own you and drive you into the ground. Their gross margins were the envy of any other business. It isn't all due to buying better, slick marketing is a large part of it.

I have been restoring old Farm Tractors for the past 6 years, and have found it easier and less expensive to hit all the auctions and purchase whole tractors for parts needed.
