I've never been sure which index to find things in, so I've divided them into three, mutually exclusive indexes:

1. Stores - Places where you buy things - stores, mail order, online ordering, etc. (this is where you are now - see the post below for the current index).

2. Items - The things that you buy inside of Stores, what do do with them, how to cook them, etc.

3. Thoughts - Any other Shopping and Cooking discussion not fitting into Stores or Items.

These indexes were started by mktye and continued by leleboo - both of these members are responsible for helping to keep the community going, and should always be in your hearts and minds.
