I am not going to try to convince you to do anything different. But if you ever walk down the street in your home town and come across a small business that’s been there and is owned by a local family that you are friends with, are you likely to buy from them something for a $1 more to go to the mall and buy the same thing for slightly cheaper from another industrial heavyweight that can absorb the cost because of the large number of transactions they have across the country/continent/world?
This is actually just the opposite of what you have done. Chrono is your local friendly neighborhood mom n’ pop business trying their best to offer some good deals, this time beating out the offer out there by the monopolizing organization. You decide to throw money where it’s a drop in the ocean and not noticed vs here where they make a good effort to bring you good deals and every purchase could potentially mean better offers in the future to give back to the community. And your primary complaint to start this thread is to belittle the efforts of the people who work hard to bring you these deals and also all of the coin shops, which I learned recently, is purchased by them to give out for free.
I understand that you must have your own reasons, so I would like to hear them.
I don’t go near those bloodsuckers…
