Pittsfield, MA – November 10, 2023 — Carr Hardware celebrated 95 years during their Carr-nniversary Weekend in September and with assistance from their loyal customers, was able to raise $7,232, which will be donated to the Berkshire Humane Society today.
Over the Weekend, Carr Hardware hosted a bucket sale that allowed customers to purchase a bucket that they could then fill with discounted products.
