Hardware stores... Is it just me?

[AndyL]

Is it just me? Or do hardware stores make absolutely no sense? I was at my local rona tonight, needed some zipties and some eggcrate.

So zipties are fasteners right? Should be in the aisle clearly marked fasteners? No? Of course not they'd be in electrical...

Eggcrate, is a lighting diffusor - thus it should be in amongst the lighting right? Of course not - it would be in the ladder aisle.

What's really bothering me - is somehow I'm starting to follow their logic... when I needed that funky 1/4" pvc tubing - I didn't go to plumbing, I went to appliances... This is truly a disturbing realization!
