I'm a big believer in supporting local retailers, but some of the prices we are being charged makes that awfully difficult... I would spend the money locally if it were with a known, reputable local that I had regular business with, but if it's just another online seller - then the money is better in my pocket.
the old saying rings true - Kmart doesn't need my dollar. (The unspoken part being that the local mum and dad retailer does)
