FAQ
Everything You Need to Know (And Some Stuff You Don't)
Listen up, folks! We're open more often than a politician's mouth during election season.
Are you guys open?
More than likely! We only close on Sundays. Here's the scoop:
- Monday to Saturday: 8:30 AM - 10:00 PM
(That's from rooster crow to possum prowl for you city slickers)
Do you check IDs of just take our word for it?
We sure do check IDs! We're stricter than your grandma at Sunday dinner. No ID, no service - even if you swear you left it in your other pair of overalls.
What forms of payment do y'all accept?
We take cash, credit cards, debit cards, and even them newfangled phone tap things. Sorry, we don't accept livestock trades or IOU notes from your cousin Bubba anymore.
What's Your Return Policy? Can I Bring Back This Beer My Uncle Earl Didn't Like?
Sorry, partner. Once it leaves our store, it's yours to keep. We can't take back opened products faster than you can say "hold my beer." But if something's wrong with your purchase, come talk to us. We're nicer than we look.
You Offer Delivery? I'm Comfier Than a Cat in a Sunbeam and Don't Wanna Move.
We sure do! As long as you're in Lewis County and not trying to get us to climb up to the top of a holler. There's a small fee, but it's cheaper than the gas you'd waste trying to find your keys.
I Heard Y'all Sell Them Newfangled Vape Doohickeys. What's the Deal?
Well, butter my biscuit, you heard right! We've got more vape products than a fox has tricks. Whether you're trying to quit the cancer sticks or just want to look cooler than a polar bear's toenails, we've got you covered:
- E-cigs slicker than a greased pig
- Juice flavors that'll make your taste buds do a happy dance
- Mods fancier than a rooster in a tuxedo
- Coils, tanks, and all them other bits and bobs
Our staff knows these gizmos better than a squirrel knows nuts. So if you're feeling more lost than a turkey on Thanksgiving, just holler at one of our friendly faces. We'll have you puffing like a steam engine in no time!
Remember, though: these ain't toys, and we don't sell to youngins. You gotta be old enough to run for president (or at least buy a lottery ticket) to purchase these cloud-making contraptions.
