1. There is not a local
grocery or hardware store that I can think of in my area. Or "housewares" either. Or pharmacies. All conglomerates. Every last one. And plenty of them!

The only local stores are gift shops, clothing boutiques (not in my size, unfortunately), some auto stores.

It's a problem.
