After weeks of trying to get a straight answer on what Fleet Farm is we are finally making the trip to find out. We have a series of bets about what we might find. Live chickens? Formal dress? Soft serve ice cream? Tractor larger than ride on mower? Honestly no idea.
We aren’t even there yet and this trip is amazing. The google maps directions just say “take the exit” no mention of which exit. It appears this is the proto-exit from which all others stem.
Wow, did not grasp the size here. No way to rule out so many of the items on the list. Also tires, sure that makes sense, a whole aisle of scrubs though? That one was unexpected.
Non-beef jerky and shalese is off to an early lead!
Also in the eternal battle of workwear the Kunzler family is staking our claim. Carharrt>Dickies. No need for discussion.
Vacuums were a surprise for sure...
Having made a recent trip to my local auto zone I can confirm the selection here is much better.
After a hot tip from @ToxPharmD we’ve got some real amazing finds. Check this fridge full of fun out.
7 egg cooker? Who knew?
After the surprisingly good vacuum selection and the egg cooker an air fryer shouldn’t be a surprise, and yet....
The toy to insecticide transition is particularly nice.
Finally starting to feel like we’re getting an understanding of this place.
Wait. A while section for as seen on tv. I may have thought I was understanding a bit too soon.... definitely confused again.
I’m not saying we HAVE to take a @TCTox fellowship field trip here but.....
Did NOT see that coming. As a side note this orange and black vibe definitively giving Home Depot vibes but honestly, liking the selection here more.
Flat screen TVs? What? Are you kidding me? I’m starting to worry I’ll never understand Fleet Farm....
Lol
Mattresses? Hahahahaha, this is amazing.
The salt section is a welcome reprieve from the madness. Seeing at Morton salt always makes me feel like I’m back home in Utah.
This aisle is a super fun combo. Labeled as drywall accessories, concrete patches, and of course hobby/crafts.
Shalese claiming she “almost guessed” Easter eggs. Too bad this isn’t horseshoes it’s hand grenades!
Open returned roomba in the clearance aisle. Not even you old pros saw that coming!
Guns/ammo/knives were the free space. Nice to see we weren’t totally off.
Honestly, should’ve known.
Well we’re all done with the tour. Amazing, thank you Fleet Farm for the most fun we’ve had in ages. I still don’t get it, but I’ll be honest, I want to.
Haha, final addendum. Pickup with hand build flag pole in the back flying the American flag parked by us as we walk out. A perfect end to the trip.
