Hurst’s General Store

Honest and unbiased. This place is the worst. Staff is rude and unhelpful, bunch of bitter folks. Will not visit again.

UNFORTUNATELY, one of my favorite stores has lost my business. For good reason. ONE OF THEIR EMPLOYEES CALLED ME OUT FOR STEALING!!! YEAH STEALING! On a Sunday morning right after they opened!!! I literally came DIRECTLY to this store to look for Plasti-​Dip. I came straight here (NOT to Home Depot, NOT to Lowes, but HERE to Ace, one of my favorite stores with the widest selection of products. I spent the first 15 – 20 minutes looking around, because that’s what you do at stores, YOU LOOK AROUND before you buy something. I looked in the automotive section for stuff for my truck, I looked in the camping section to see what tents they had, and finally I started making my way towards the paint. Out of nowhere an employee (let’s call him Officer Ace) stopped me dead in my tracks. «Now I’ve seen you wandering around for 30 minutes, it looks like trouble. People don’t just do that. You look like you’re up to no good, what are you looking for?» ASTOUNDED, I stepped back and told him that I was here to look for paint. He directed me to the paint section, then told me that «you see we just can’t take chances like that with people these days. You don’t seem to have good intentions.» Well thanks Officer Ace!!! At this point I lost all interest in buying their Plasti-​Dip anyways, its overpriced. I was livid and left the store due to the fact that I was seething with anger that this employee had just came and told me that he thinks I’m here to STEAL. I guess you are not allowed to browse at stores anymore. I will not be doing business with accusers.

Small-​ish town market, so a lot has to be crammed into a store. As much as possible here. There is a very solid toy department, particularly for a hardware store. Sorry, «general» store. Hardware is very impressive. Crafting, gardening, hunting, fishing, it’s all covered here and very well. Ever seen a soda fountain in a hardware store? Me neither… until here. Food selection not great, but above average for a hardware store. I like this place. It’s pretty enjoyable to spend time here and staff seems like they’re having fun. I back it. My only real complaint is that the parking lot lets out sort of inconveniently and that’s kind of a pain, but other than that, this would probably be my go-​to store for that type of thing.

I have been a loyal customer of Ace and Hurst for many years and over the past few months I have gone in weekly to buy 22 ammo. But the service I got today was so bad that feel the need to write a review about the horrible experience. The guy at the sporting goods counter who has been selling me 22 ammo for the past couple months had a «buddy» who was also an employee there with him and instead of paying attention to me, the customer, he continued to chat with his buddy. When I finally spoke up, his friend mocked me. I can take a joke and I laughed it off but both of them were continuously rude. He gave me the ammo and I tried to start a conversation with him and then he asked my age and I told him I was 19. And he tried to make me give the ammo back because «I wasn’t of age» and that to buy «hand gun ammo» you have to be 21. First of all you only have to be 18 to by rifle ammo and second of all I do not even own a hand gun and even if I did he has been selling me this ammo for months! I don’t know why he was all the sudden very offensive and trying to tough guy me, maybe because his friend was right there but I know the laws and I know what I am able to purchase. Very bad experience as I have been going to this store for years with each visit being totally awesome but I can most certainly say I will not be returning to this branch again due to this visit. Though the sweet lady at the cash register was extremely friendly and nice as she always is and she had agreed with me that I was in the right. I hate writing bad reviews but with an experience this bad it is needed. Know your laws people.

I really love Hurst Ace Hardware. There isn’t a store in STG that can match the service you receive here. At the door, you are welcomed by employees who are willing and ready to serve you in any way they can. Here you can find everything from arts and crafts, hunting and camping gear, to almost all the material needed to build a house.
Most days they have free pop corn available.
I use the Post Office located in the front of the store because the service is way better than that of the Post Office in STG. No surprise there.
They have Coke! Yahoooo

Ace Hurst is the finest hardware store in the city of St. George.
They have a knowledgable courteous staff Who are willing to take their time and help you out.
A large selection of tools and PVC pipe fasteners and fittings.
While I was there some of the people on staff were there to help me measure and cut PVC PIPE for me.
The folks at the check out were friendly and fast.
You can tell these guys are under good management.
I would recommend anybody looking for hardware tools or PVC pipe, or any materials you might need for the project you’re doing at home, to stop by Ace Hurst and pick up your supplies there.
My project was to build a movie screen so the kids at our church could watch a movie in the park.
Worked out just great!

Fun old fashion hardware store with everything you could need to keep your house running smoothly, including fabric and yarn. You walk in to smell fresh popcorn and it’s free. We grab a bag and go browsing, my hubby goes to the outdoor and hunting stuff and I go to the craft and fabric area.
This time, they have taken out the sporting goods and replace it with more crafts, fabrics and yarn. The sporting goods, they moved to a space on the side of the building, but it’s not open on sundays. And they have added an outdoor gardening area that full of up coming holiday stuff, like lighted trees and lawn decorations.
Good clean store, prices are reasonable, friendly service.

This might be the second best store to ever exist anywhere on the planet.
The best exists in Northern Arkansas, but this is a close second.
One the left side of the store as you walk in is an Ace Hardware, having all of the Hardware you could possibly want. Its your standard sized Ace… On the right is basically a hiking/​camping/​Hunter store.
Footwear for hiking and camping, and camo boots for those in need, and socks, and then a small fishing supply area, with rods, reels, tackle and such. Then into the towing area for those towing a trailer of some sort, and a nice knife collection, and most importantly, a gun shop.
Yes to top it off they have a gun shop. Now don’t get excited California people. They cannot sell you a gun. At all. Not even in the slightest.
Anyway its a great store for all your outdoors and indoor needs.
The best store inthe world also has all of these things, but has a small grocery AND a Liquor store in it. Its in Arkansas just over the Missouri line somewhere near Johnson Shut-​ins.
