I've set foot in #^&#^&#^&#^&'s. I've purchased things at #^&#^&#^&#^&'s. I just don't like #^&#^&#^&#^&'s. If they send me a coupon, I'll go in and buy stuff I wouldn't usually buy. If Wal-Mart is very close and open, I'll go buy a few jig heads. I've bought rods and reels there. I think having the "vegan mentality" with anything is a bit scary.
Price doesn't have a huge bearing on where I get my stuff. If I don't want or need it enough to pay the highest ticket price, then I shouldn't buy it anyways. I will still get things at the big chains, but I prefer the smaller shops and give them my business when I can. That's all most of us can do, short of devoting our lives to "save the local B&T" activism and boycotting.
