So Whatchya, Whatchya, Watchya Want?

We all hear people say things like, "there's nothing to do in a small town" or, "I can't find what I'm looking for in a small town."

There is an often overlooked fact when it comes to services and products that are perceived to be unavailable in a small town - business owners want your business and will do everything in their power to obtain those products and services you're looking for in order to obtain and retain you as a customer/client. All you have to do is ask, or let your request(s) be known. The owners/managers of small businesses are usually very accessible or easy to contact. If they're not in the office/store on the day you visit or call, leave a message asking them to contact you back. I bet you'll be surprised at how many very busy business owners/operators will contact you back and work hard to find what you're looking for.

For many people, the internet has become the new go-to place for purchasing things they can't find in their local shops. The truth is, businesses have access to those same online items/services. The difference is, when/if something goes wrong with your purchase, finding someone to fix the issue online can be an exercise in futility. When something goes wrong with your local purchase, you've got a human being you can go to with the issue.

What are some of the most common things you purchase out-of-town or online? What are some of the products or services you'd like to see more of in Ogallala or your local community? What are some of the biggest complaints when it comes to the tax burden versus the services offered through tax funding?
