supermarket or village stores?

supermarket or village stores?
suzzie1976
given the choice (money no problem), would you prefer to shop in a supermarket or small independent stores? i just love shopping in the village shops and am lucky to have the traditional butcher, baker, chemist and fishmonger within walking distance of my home. it's so much more presonal, and you can have a bit of a chat and catch up on the local gossip. i like the idea of supporting local business and believe that i get better quality in fresh food from the local stores, than mass produced supermarket produce. however, i would struggle without my monthly supermarket shops. supermarkets offer a choice not available at a local level and can offer discounts that smaller businesses can't compete with.

I love to visit and buy from my country village store,but the prices are through the roof and no wonder in todays climate! The other downside I myself find,is the fruit/veg at the village store is not upto scratch and so I admit having to go to the supermarket purely for the freshness. Very sad indeed.

I would prefer to shop in the village store but 1 - i live in a city and 2- if i did live in the village it would still be too expensive
