WATERER WARNING

Post by Killerbunny » Fri May 19, 2023 7:26 am

Waterers a heads-up!! We needed some new gallon waters and picked up 8 in Ritchie Feed and Seed. They looked like the Little Giant made in the USA ones. THEY ARE NOT! CHeck for the logo on the base if buying. They fit very poorly together and it's quite a tussle. Only have 2 threads on the jug part and some leaked in the coops. Peavey Mart are also selling these now. These are going to the landfill sadly!

I would return it as a complaint. Don't let them get away with selling inferiour merchandise! I don't like that Richie place anyway. They wouldn't honour the guarantee on a rose that died because I had bought it on a credit note from them. Grrrr!

DOn't have the receipt as it was cash although the bitch remembered DH buying them. Also she tried to tell me that starter and grower were the same. I am at a disadvantage in this dump Brockville because of the accent. I did comment that I could here the turnip truck leaving. Not a young person either.
