No matter what you brought or all you forgot, all paths lead back to the Merc… and Hardware store.

It’s OCTOBER! The most frighteningly fun of the ‘ber months! And one of our favorites to decorate for!

Don’t be fooled by that AI slop others might post with fake ghosts and ghouls - ours are real. 👻 👻

Or you know….. real-ish. We do hear weird noises now and then, but those are usually coming from the porta-potty….

Monsoon has waved goodbye, hunters and snowbirds will be headed our way soon, and we are ready to launch into the busy winter season.

See you soon!

National Coffee Day is Septem... just kidding, it's every day!

Pick up your favorite Gadsden Coffee and Tea Company blend locally at the Merc, or you can order from them directly online!

If you need a hot dose of Jo' quickly, you can always get a cup at the Merc. It'll only run you about $2, and anyone you may come in contact with during the day will thank you.

Enjoy this rainy, overcast day courtesy of Hurricane Polo! Only in Arizona would someone say, "Cool, we are getting hit with a hurricane!" Here's to hoping for just rain and no other damages. ⛈️

Today, we wanted to put out a very heartfelt THANK YOU to our employees!

They are an amazing group of people that truly hold down the fort and keep the wheels turning at the Merc and Hardware stores.

At any given time they are the greeters, the stockers, the cleaners, the bouncers, and the lottery-ticket-checkers.

They deal with every single attitude that walks through those front doors. You never know if they just said sayonara to someone in a tizzy or just talked someone off the ledge. You don’t know whether they are going through something tough and are just trying to hold it together themselves. Please be kind to all retail workers as we head into the busy Southern AZ season, but especially be kind to ours! 😊

THANK YOU all:
Pat
Carol
Robbin
Darin

The ATM is functional again!

Thanks for your patience with us; in 7 years it’s never given us any major issues so I guess we were due. 🙄

If you are enjoying a long weekend, have a great time and be safe!

ATM Update: Fri 9/4

We have the part, but we are having issues getting a technician from our vendor out here. The ATM will likely be down until middle of next week (around 9/9).

We will update as needed on progress.

Thanks for your patience.

Happy Friday!
