At Northeast Arms in Peabody?.. A little more than some of the bigger retailers in the state...BUT...owned and operated by one of the nicest and best little guys on the planet so I sometimes don't even ask Steve (a guy who will LITERALLY go out of his way to help you) what the price of something is. I just buy it - to help keep him in business.
Quick story: Years ago, I lived in Malden... There used to be a liquor store on Highland Ave owned by a family and they were great people, always a smile, always some good conversation to prevent you from rushing back out into the rat race known as life, always a "thank you" and a "see you again?" with honesty and sincerity behind it. Then Stop & Shop became their "competitor". Stop & Shop started selling beer and ordered every brand, and ordered literally everything by the "We'll take three pallets of each"...
And I often "stop & wonder" what became of that nice family that owned what used to be that friendly (but now shuttered) package store on Highland Ave...
It's not always about "Prices". [emoji6]
