For many products isn't the store brand the sensible choice?

Isn't buying locally even better?

Is there a conflict between buying a store brand and buying locally?

Wouldn't it depend on whether or not the product you are buying can be produced locally?

What if it's cheaper to order it than to buy locally?

Are you willing to wait for it to be shipped to you if you order it?

Doesn't the degree of impatience depend upon the degree of desire for the product?

Isn't it anti productive to be impatient?

Do you truly worry as to whether you are using British or US spelling?

Isn't the British way cooler though? I like the added 'u', don't you?
