I am comfortable shopping on line with trusted stores. Sometimes I want something so I can start a project now, not in a week when the shipment appears. I have yet to go to LQS but JoAnn's often comes up short. There is a local LQS which I want to shop but am really scared of the prices. I was an accountant so I understand all of the problems faced by a small business but none of that makes my budget any larger.
