I was disheartened to hear that Eastern Mountain Sports' parent company was shutting a bunch of stores--if my local shop, Nashua, closed I would've had to drive to Reading, MA to look at good outdoor gear. When I visited last week, I was told they were able to renegotiate their lease and would be staying open (yay!). At that same moment, I heard a gentleman declare proudly that he would "buy [a Thule rack] online and save 10%" after an EMS employee had spent a while making sure we everything would fit. Grrr...
