We all 'hear' that we should shop local. We all get swept up in the convenience of shopping online with the big companies to save a few pennies! But, have we ever really thought about the affect this has on our local community?

When you shop with a large company on line, does it make you feel good? Other than being pleased with yourself that you saved a fiver! No, in short is the answer to this..

Sure, you can buy commercial soap cheaper. But, trust me! Have you ever used a soap from the super market that made you smile?
