I am not sure what ACE hardware store you buy from, but I manage the
hardware department of one and I have never charged a $1.10 + for a
stainless steel wingnut (1/4-20).
ACE hardware - Danielson, CT - $1.15.
I very recently bought 5 stainless wignuts at an Ace in CT. Slightly larger than
1/4-20, but not much. They were $1.30 each. The cashier gasped at the price I
had written on the little bag, and asked if they were actually 30 cents. When I
told him the price was correct as I had written it, he shook his head and rang
them up.
Now that Fastenal has moved into retailing, I've found they are really
good wth various nuts, bolts and such in SS.
At least around here.
