I am from California and can practically feel the mid western energy radiating from this picture. I also have no clue what the fuck a Menards is but ill hazard a guess that it is either a Minnesota or Wisconsin thing.
The whole Midwest. I’m in Indiana.
I meant where Menards started, kinda like how Wal-Mart is an Arkansaner company.
Oh yeah, I think you’re right in that case. I think it’s Wisconsin.
Fucken A, my guess was entirely based off the fact it sounds like a great lakes Norwegian name.
Save big money at Menards, but not on Menards…
^…save ^big ^money– Gaa! That jingle will never leave me. Damn you, midwest!
They play it all the time in the store too. It’s maddening.
My mom told me about this shit when she used to work there, i guess the owner is an insane model train person.
Is it just me or is that absolute garbage quality for the price?
Home Depot and Lowe’s are selling similar things this year. The depot actually had one for Halloween and one for Christmas, perfect to add to you Christmas village!

I’ll just go get my flamethrower.

this is funny as shit, it’d fit right in with the obvious plant mockups
Looks like it’s built to model railroading “O” scale.
EDIT: Oh, duh. It says so right in your picture. I guess if you want the sweet authenticity that only product placement can buy, this is your set.
To spend almost $140 on a Menards model for your model railroad, you either want some sort of very accurate representation of somewhere that has a Menards or you are way too big a fan of Menards.
Also, pretty much everyone I’ve known into model railroads is into HO scale, so who is even going to buy this?
I’ve never lived in a state with a Menards, and I’m still a big fan. Menards is worthy of some fandom.

Sounds like some of them nerds need to go big or fuckin’ go home!
There is at least one Menards with a railroad siding, or at least was 20 years ago when I lived in the area. (oakdale mn) I undrestand some deliveries came via rail to that store and them by truck to the rest of
Is there an 11%rebate?
There’s always an 11% rebate.
wtf is a Menards
a midwestern knockoff of a lowes with some extra product selection you’d find at a walmart or farm store; owned by a far-right, anti-union billionaire.
Wtf is a lowes?
Shoot, I had remained ignorant to that last part until now. Is Lowe’s the only big box hardware store I can still support? How about Ace?
Menards are stuck to methighs
its what a pirate shouts when you kick him in the crotch
A pirate is at a party and a fellow party-goer notices the pirate has a wheel in his pants.
“What’s the wheel for,” they ask the pirate.
“Arr,” replies the pirate, “I don’t know, but it be drivin’ me nuts.”
Since nobody actually answered the question: Menards is a massive hardware store chain in the Midwest. When I say it’s massive, it has everything you could ever need in a hardware store and more. Like there are usually multiple floors, a lumber yard, highly specialized sections, and even a small grocery section with food, pet supplies, clothing, etc. it’s definitely the greatest hardware store ever conceived, but unfortunately the man who owns them is batshit crazy in classic Wisconsin fashion.
You forgot the piano, and the skilled person who is sometimes playing said piano.
Aww man I’ve never been to a two-floor+ Menards :( none of the ones around me are (they do have the lumber loft but that hardly counts).
Now I feel like I’m missing out.
It’s a sort of hardware store that absorbed a Walmart.

I need a Kwik Trip version of this
I’d prefer a Culver’s.
I vaguely want one for diorama purposes with my MST3k Funko Pops.
It’s a playtime of savings, at Menard’s!
And a Giant Spider Invasion of savings!
This is something you could buy with employee incentive reward points(company store dollars) that somehow made it onto shelves.
Why would you do such a thing as an employee?
Well after 10 years with the company, you can’t afford healthcare, so you might as well blow up a scale model first.
To smash in the parking lot as a form of catharsis?
Banjo music intensifies
I’m in Indiana. It’s already turned up to 11.
