We all have a choice of stores online but I also have 2 LHBS within 45 min drive, both of which are online also. I have found both of them to be well stocked. They usually have what I need when I order online late at night BUT if I ring one store in particular, or drop in, I always get a better deal.... Isn't it usually the other way around.
They gave me 20% off 25kg bag of grain as my BIL will collect the order,
they told me that if I only need to order yeast "No delivery charge jus the cost of postage"
If I tell him what I'm brewing and he is short an ingredient he will NOT send the order until he has all the ingredients, Usually only a day or so delay. He does all this because I make the effort to call to his store.
I am of the opinion that if you support your local business they will repay your loyalty
