Reply to "Keep it Local!"

Sorry to see Love Saves the Day going if only just for the great visual the front made.

The East Village is kind of synonymous with LOCAL to my mind since the vast majority of small stores are purposely located there by their owners if only because they would not be able to survive in any other neighborhood because of less agreeable rents west of First or Second Ave, north of 14th, to begin with. There have already been the demise of several out of scale, toney eateries in the nabe while smaller to scale places adjacent are still doing okay.
One of the best liquor stores is on the north west corner of Houston and B. Its run by a cute very aged couple. They actually have a quite large selection and always have deep discounts going on quite a few name brands. The hours are a bit whimsical though but usually if you can stop by late afternoons the proprietors are there. I get a chuckle from them because they always ask if I'm legal drinking age!
