The huge chains are very insidiuos how they continue to monopolize our world. There is a fruit and vegetable store here called Murphys. We recently found out it is owned by Wal-Mart. We were $#$^&(*NO)$$@##^*&^$$!

Re: Local merchants, I could not agree more. I hate what WAL-Mart has done to our community. I live near Tampa and there is one or two old time camera stores that deals in pre owned equiptment with that guy who knows his stuff.
My actual home is South of you....Bradenton ! I don't think we HAVE any camera stores !!!

We are very fortunate in having Rowe's Photo in our area and they have a very knowledgeable staff. I always go there for my supplies. I bought my Nikkor F1.8 35mm lens there last spring right after the tsunami in Japan. While places online were asking up to 50% over retail for this lens because they were in short supply Rowe's sold me one for $199.95 the normal retail price. If I have a question I can always depend on them to give me the right answer. They are local and they are where I go for my photo needs. Even if I can buy something elsewhere for a few bucks less I go there because I want them to be there hen I need them.
WalMart and the other big box stores may be a few bucks less but they can't compete in the knowledge arena.

If you are heading North on Mt. Read it is on the left hand side just past the intersection with Westfall Rd.

Yes I get things twisted up occasionally. I guess this old age thing is catching up with me.
