470 Hudson Stour favorite local grocery store
If you need to mail anything, the guys there are great. They are slow, but we know all of them and they are super nice and helpful (if you get on their good side). Always bring your own supplies before you go there. It is a government agency so they lack almost everything (including pens and tape). If you need tape, it is above the TV on the left side top shelf.
