Shopping locally also offers the personal service that large chain stores cannot. I love going into businesses here in town where people know me by name, Small business owners know their industry, and usually can answer all your questions about products and services.
And you may want to compare prices with big name stores. Local merchants run sales often, and you may be surprised at how similar Tolland businesses' prices are to department and big box stores.
