Online stores or Offline stores?

Hi, I was wondering how anyone here feels about how best to manage one's available time when it comes to finding deals on legos, or any products really, in the multitude of online or offline stores you can visit. I've noticed people here talk about major clearances people have found at their local stores, but from what I understand I'm not guaranteed to find the same great deal at my local walmart or target etc. that you did at yours while a link to a great deal on Amazon will work for virtually anyone who sees it assuming the deal is still going on. I don't really have a reason to go out to retail stores for any other reason, so there's a good chance I could go out to a local store of mine and waste gas and time just to find out the deal I had heard about is not available around me, so would you guys say it is a personal choice? or would it still be profitable to peruse my local stores from time to time and see if i get lucky? I guess what I'm really driving at is that I've only just started and I've bought all my sets thus far from Amazon, and I feel like maybe I'm just missing out on some hidden benefits of going out to my local places, or maybe I should just stick to places like Amazon and Ebay and maybe invest into getting better discounts just there like with Amazon prime if it's worth it. Anything you guys have to say on the matter would be great, so thanks! Also sorry if this has been brought up already
