A brief Spanish Lesson

Today´s lesson is on shop names.

Mostly they are quite logical. A libreria sells libros (books). A papeleria sells papel (paper) and other stationery items. A farmacia sells pharmaceuticals. If you say it out loud it makes perfect sense. So what does a ferreteria sell?

Yes, got it in one - hardware. Sorry, if you thought a ferreteria sells ferrets you just haven´t been paying attention.
