Doing business locally
Let’s face it, although there are a lot of things we can buy over the Internet at a great price, there are times when we need to find something locally. Like plumbing services, or a good local restaurant. I don’t know why it is, but whenever I am looking for the paper version of the local yellowpages, I can’t seem to find where my wife put it!
I know she has a system of “A place for everything, and everything in its place” but I can never remember where the places are! That’s why I never put anything away – if it is not out in plain sight, I can’t find it! I get so aggravated when I look for something and I find out that my wife “put it away!”
So even though I know we have several telephone books in the house, instead of trying to find them I just go on the Internet to the local.com website to do a local search for the businesses and services that I need to have done. It’s quick and easy, and I don’t have to try to remember to put it away when I’m through with it!
