“Two evenings ago my furnace broke and as luck would have it the low that night was 12 degrees. The following day I attempted to have my furnace serviced only to find out it needed to be replaced and would take a few days. Fortunately I have two pellet stoves. Unfortunately I had just maxed out my credit card and then some to replace my furnace. I have only been a customer at Valley Home and Garden for the purchase of my pellets as of late Nov 2019, I just moved into this house. I went into Valley today and explained my dilema to Fred and told him my house was cold and I had kids at home and asked if I could please take a few bags of pellets and return the following day to pay for them. He said "absolutely! How many do you need?" I told him that I thought 4 would get me by and happily thanked him with a promise to return with payment the next day. He said "not to worry about it" only asked for my phone number and said I wouldn't hear from them for atleast a week and to take my time getting back to them. As I was loading my 4 bags into my car Fred came outside and said "would you like 8 bags? I don't want your house to be cold". What an incredible jesture and what an amazing act of kindness. I am truely greatful to Fred and those at Valley Home and Garden. I will be a return customer for life. Thank you.”
