So instead of saying thank you for caring about the community and trying to help save lives, you need to complain.
Well said. A guy is doing a favor for the community and he's doing it when it's convenient for him.

For personal checking I believe TD is great. Never had a problem...
Update: I took your advice; I opened accounts in TD. Great experience at the branch. But for a bank that calls itself "America's most convenient bank", they have awfully long hold times on the phone. Thanks to all who offered advice.

Regarding where to buy wine and booze, I get mine in Wine On The 9, or sometimes by the place in NPGS James plaza. I avoid Spirits Unlimited for 3 reasons. 1- there's a Mitzva/Inyan to buy by fellow Jews (and the prices are similar). 2- Spirits Unlimited reported on a Jewish Wine establishment that they were selling without a proper license. 3- I remember stories when people bought spoiled stuff in Spirits Unlimited and they refused to take it back. (You could argue about the morals of point 2, but in my own personal opinion, it's a reason to avoid the store.)

How about The Vineyard (Westgate)?

Interestingly, I was told not to buy at Spirits Unlimited by the proprietor of the other Jewish wine store, a competitor of the one that got snitched on. (Mi Ke'amcha Yisroel!)
