Another sign of the times
The challenges of running a bricks and mortar store in the internet age just came home to roost.
A young gal with a baby on her back was showing her mother (or mother-in-law) a small box of about 30 acorns that she said was perfect to accessorize an arrangement she had. We sell this box for $8.95.
And, I'm not making this up, her next comment was, "I'm going to look these up on the internet."
I'm just floored. Taking the time to look for it on the net, buy, pay shipping and wait for it to arrive vs. buying now for $8.95.
I think I'm really starting to worry.
