My LQS gives you a $5 punch on their savings card if you don't take a bag. (Not sure how many punches it takes to cash in the card though.)
Despite the prices, I will patronize my LQS and others in my area as much as I can since. If we don't, we'll turn around and look for them and they'll be gone. But I will shop sales and the clearance room as much as possible.
Charlee, I would have loved to hear your political comments - probably would have agreed with you - but better to stay away from the topic. :)
One shop here has what they call Bag Lady Day - 3rd Sat of each month. You buy a cloth bag with their name on it, take it in on that day and get 20% off your whole purchase.
Another does punch cards and you have to fill up the card - takes a long time though before you get the $$ discount.
