For years our local fleet store has sold Poulan and Husqvarna chainsaws, along with Husqvarna and Oregon accessories. They also sold a "plain-label" brand of bar 'n' chain oil that I liked... and I could buy it for as little as $3 on sale sometimes. So I just walked in there about an hour ago, wanting to replace my Husqvarna roller guide (the only Husqvarna thing I use) and thought I'd pick up a gallon of bar oil if some sort of sale was on.
Damn ‼ Couldn't believe my eyes. All the Poulan and Husqvarna stuff is gone... all of it gone... everything. What little bit of Oregon stuff there is has been squeezed onto an end cap. And along a very sizable section of the back wall is a brand new Stihl display... saws, pole saws, weed trimmers, blowers, edgers, and all sorts of accessories, PPE, axes, and whatnot.
And the only friggin' bar 'n' chain oil in the whole friggin' store is Stihl brand... I ain't paying that premium‼
What-the-hell is Stihl doing in a fleet store??
And of even more concern... what-the-hell am I gonna' do about bar oil??
