Today is Record Store Day

So go out and support your local shops, if you're lucky enough to still have some. Living in Seattle, I feel pretty lucky to have so many cool shops around. There are 5 good ones within 10 miles of me. When I first moved here almost 3 years ago, there were probably about 8. So things have definitely changed, and I try to support them as much as I can. Though my disposable income isn't what it used to be, and often I can find better deals online. But I do try to go every few weeks to see what I can find, and avoid online shipping charges (I feel the $3 average for s+h is pretty high...though I do pay taxes instead when buying locally).

One of my favorite stores is offering 20% off everything today, except sale items. Maybe I can break away and find some good stuff, even though I was just there last weekend. So check your local stores' websites and see if they have any deals going on, or special events of some kind. Happy shopping!
