Obviously fresh food largely needs to come from the grocery store but besides that, what percentage of your purchases are online vs a brick and mortar store? Other than the feed store most of my purchases are online now. The prices here aren’t even comparable.

I don't go into stores I've been disappointed/frustrated one to many times if I can get it online that's where I buy it.

I am probably 90% online. I try to buy local. It’s either more expensive or they’re out of that item, size, color…

At 83 yoa, there not much I don’t have a heckuva lot of. Just groceries from the store.

I buy local when I can but if they have to order it I just order it myself. I bought a tripod the other day from a small local shop just because I burned up so much of the guys time. I don’t know that I’ll ever hunt from a tripod but I have a nice one now.

I personally buy very little online. I do spend time browsing and checking out reviews on things though.

If I am not in a hurry I buy online. I can but the same items online with shipping and it will be usually 30% or so cheaper than buying it local. And returning it will usually be easier.

Hell my groceries are online 98% of the time

I usually hit Tractor Supply or the local feed store at least once a week. Still buy groceries versus having delivered.


To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

I prefer to buy local, however, I can't tell you how many times I search all day for a certain product to just order from effing Amazon because I can't find it elsewhere.

Living in the boonies means we usually go to Del Rio on Saturdays for groceries, fuel for the trucks, etc. Usually Tractor Supply and then WalMart. Maybe get a cup of coffee at the donut store.

That’s what I run into in my rural area.

I mostly buy local, but somethings I can't seem to get close by. I'm going to try my shoes and boots on too. No mail order foot wear.

I try to buy from small local businesses when I can but if I can’t find it local and I’m not in a hurry, I buy online

Amazon is my friend. Don't have to find a parking spot, no traffic, or deal with my fellow man life is good.

Yes groceries, feed store and a few other things I'll go to town for.

About the only small businesses we have in Bandera are beer joints.

Needed a TV so I went to Walmart to check them out. Found one that looked good so I tried to look it up online but didn't have signal so I just bought it. When I got home I checked it and sure enough Walmart online had it $100 cheaper than the store. I called to see if they would price match their online ad and the lady said no. I commented that it's incentive to not shop in the store, she said she never though of it that way. I see it that way.
