Support your local stores, especially mom and pop shops. Without our support they disappear and then your slightly lower internet prices go up.
You need to remember how many jobs these stores create compared to a web store.
Real stores have multiple employees, get product in by truck and ups which is stored in a warehouse sent there by manufacturers. All of which creates employment for a large percentage of us all. They pay taxes in our town also.
Web store typically stocks little to no inventory, usually only a few employees if any over 1. Ships by ups from an out of state warehouse fulfillment center. Pays little tax revenue and not in your home town?
