re: If a product is available locally, do you still buy on Amazon?

If I need one or two things quickly, I'll go to local hardware or grocery store. Bulk of what I buy is through Amazon or Neighborhood Walmart, way different than Super Walmart. We've even started to buy stuff through Walmart online as they offer more selection and it beats having to track it down at store in the area. They are also getting close to Amazon shipping rates so that's huge too. Most non-food items come from Amazon though as that's less time I have to drive in Baton Rouge traffic and it comes to me, wider selection, and sometimes tax free depending on seller.
