I feel like if I can’t find something in a brick and mortar shop (even if that’s a chain like TK Maxx), I probably don’t need it? One month, we tallied what percentage of discretionary expenses were spent locally and tried to increase it. I spent a lot at our local bougie farm shop, the high street cafe, the farm that sells flour, etc, but the money goes to people in our immediate community.

You're right there are a lot of things we buy that we don't probably need. Love when the money goes to the immediate community. :)
