Wal Mart, well everyone knows their practices. Don't confuse local ownership with all that is good, it's not necessarily that way.

As for car dealers? I patronize my local car dealer almost 100%.
I stopped at The Old Country Store in Moultonborough last night at 8:25pm. I asked the clerk if they were closing. He was extremely friend and said that they were open until 9:00pm. That's one local merchant that stays open to increase business. So...if you out and about in Moultonborough in the evening it may be a place to visit.
