I used to have several stores that I could run out to, to get some of my favorite brand Twinings until Magruder's shut down. Now I can't get Twinings at all. So one cold winter January day I got a great idea, ordered some through Amazon, and got my favrote twinings at a much lower cost + shipping than I could get at Magruder's. Now I have a source for my tea habit. Although next time around I thik that I will compete all of the estores based on price, Ithink I can get a better price than amazon is willing to give me.

You should be able to find a better price. Stores around here stopped carrying my favorite tea (luzianne) in small bags, so I ordered from Amazon the first time. Since then I've found cheaper tea elsewhere. In some cases you can order some high end tea for cheaper because they specialize in tea only. This store had some interesting teas to try
http://www.englishteastore.com/ They may even carry twinnings. I didn't check. I'm not sure I'd order the same loose tea from them again, but they do have shipping specials and specials on various kinds of tea now and then.
