I had a chance to visit Soultrex today and was really impressed. Although they didn't have the climbing gear I was looking for it was hard to not break out the cash and start buying a lot of stuff that I'd been looking at online for a while and wished they had a store here that I could check out the gear in person. My rule is I always budget when I go shopping and stay away from impulse purchases, but even though a lot of prices are better online I'll definitely be back. Good selection of camping food, cookware, and different supplies like tents and bivys and hammocks. Some really nice Kelty backpacks, too. The staff was very helpful and even gave me the card of a guy who sells the climbing stuff I was looking for. The lady with the dark hair is very knowledgeable and asked if I was interested in building an emergency kit. I guess that's the socially acceptable way to ask if you're a prepper, but when I said yes she came up with a printed out list of things to go in a bug out bag. Very cool. Nice to know you can go shopping for stuff without the staff looking at you kinda weird like they do at Costco or Sports Authority sometimes. Just checked the price of the princetontec quad tactical light and yeah it's a few dollars cheaper on Amazon, but for some things I definitely don't mind supporting local biz. Military discount for those who are interested and there was some stuff on sale, too. Worth checking back.
Pretending to be offended does not make you a good person.
