I try to shop local(ish) when I can, since it employs local people and builds some Christmas cheer etc, but damnit, can these stores at least get their online inventory straightened out? Two places I went to yesterday (both national chains btw) claimed to have the items I wanted in stock at their stores, only for me to come out empty handed out of both places due to there not actually any stock.
So I bought on Amazon instead and it will be here on Friday.
Maybe this should go in the gear grinder thread, but brick & mortar stores are not helping themselves.
