Nah, we got a big shul and around 20 people davening there.
But no matter how much space there is, there will always be people who just stop rather than keep walking. 😡
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I spend a nice sum on a lot of Hadassim. They keep my arovos fresh throughout Yomtov.

I hope you mean per set of 3.
TBH, I don't find the א, א משולש כולו כשיעור חזו''א that much better than what I buy. I usually get א either משולש כולו כשיעור הגר''ח נאה or משולש רובו כשיעור חזו''א which are about the same.

That goes in the pros and cons of where you live thread.

We have wholesalers based in Crown Heights. And no-one gets only 3 Hadassim. 6 is minimum. If merchants tried Lakewood pricing here, there would be new entrants into the market. $5-$6 per set of 3 is equilibrium.

Nu, no hoshanos pet peeves this year?
Guys, a good tip that would help with the הושענות frustration: Just imagine that above all you have to walk around also carrying a full כוס of wine. Never mind your cup, all you'd be worried about is the cup of the guy behind you...
Now be happy with your lot, and stop ranting!
