Easier to research options and prices on Amazon.
Easier to touch and feel and bring it home today a brick and mortar store.
Happened to be in a store this week and remembered I needed batteries. Price in the store was $11.25 (or close to that). Thought that was high so came home and checked Amazon. Price with tax on Amazon was $9.26. Saved $2 but received six batteries instead of two; store price was almost four times higher than Amazon!
I like the idea of shopping at local businesses even if they cost a little more. Recently bought shoes at Lake Sumter and was surprised to see their price was the same as Amazon. Would feel comfortable paying a little more to keep the local business in business. But can't bring myself to pay four times as much just to buy locally.
