Don't get me wrong...I love Starbucks but anything that would hurt the "Village Perk" or "Winnipesaukee Bay Gull" would bother me. The intrusion of big name franchises will only go to dilute the character of the area. Hannafords is a necessity for us full timers. Jackson has outrageous prices and Heath's has it's own niche, but not as a market for everyday. Right now our major shopping is at Market Basket in Tilton.
