I shop almost exclusively at one LQS. There is one near my house and I try to give her 90-95% of my business. I know if we do not frequent these shops we can't really complain if they don't order the new stuff. It's hard to purchase new with no money coming in. I work near another local shop and rarely frequent it. They have an absolutely beautiful shop but the owners and employees are anything but friendly. I wonder sometimes how they stay in business but I think they cater to a certain clientele. If I need something the LQS does not have I try and run by Hancocks. I rarely shop online. I'm a visual person and like to feel the fabric before I buy
