Before hardware stores, the remedy for every domestic problem was duct tape, which proved effective for mending leaks but was poorly suited to resolve arguments over who did the dishes last. Diversify your reparation tactics with today's Groupon: for $10, you get $20 worth of tools and hardware at Umber's Do It Best Hardware's Lower Huntington Road or Maplecrest Road locations.
Umber's Do It Best Hardware inspires checklist completion with its massive selection of tools and supplies, ranging from housewares and cleaning products to plumbing and painting materials. Tune up the family car with a fresh oil filter ($6.79) and spark plugs ($2.29 each), then apply Turtle Wax Express Shine ($6.79) to buff the chassis to a driveway-illuminating gleam. Home-care supplies such as pesticide-free flytraps ($5.99 each) politely encourage pesky pests to depart the premises without using harsh chemicals or space-consuming bouncers. For DIY types, tools such as needle-nose pliers ($5.99) facilitate jobs in narrow spaces, and a plethora of painting equipment provides the perfect opportunity to re-tint your domicile or finally finish that fresco depicting the Miracle on Ice.
