I just had a horrible experience at CENTRAL PLUMBING in YONKERS. Basically, the guy walked away from us while we were still actually buying something! He just left us there standing to go help someone who had just walked in. So my ever resourceful boyfriend looked up other plumbing stores and there was a lovely store around the corner called ALL BATH INTERNATIONAL which was GREAT! The owner helped us and was fantastic. This is what a true local store should be like. So yes, I agree there really is no other way to go but local just make sure they are nice local. I totally agree with you.

Mainly because I am too lazy to unwrap the darn things. I need instant gratification that can only be achieved by a wide mouth guzzling of whatever beverage is in front of me. Nice to know that I'm doing my part, in my own strange way. You’ll be happy to know that I dont use straws anyway. Mainly because I am too lazy to unwrap the darn things.

Such a small thing, a plastic straw, and yet if we train ourselves to pay attention to the importance of starting with change in these small things, then the big challenges in our lives won't be as big anymore...
