I agree 35 minuts is not that fare, and is about the same I have to mine, I like to take the trip and do the shopping..
sure some of there stuff cost a bit more then online (if to much they are normal to talk with) but no shipping, I can get advice from some nice Ppl how enjoy the same hobby and if something is wrong or breaks I can go back, and just the fact that I get my stuff right away is nice and just one online order who fail to come or is bad quality can cost more then you safe
beside that I can get my hydro shop to order the stuff I like if they don't have it home or sell it, got em to order specially soil and seeds for me as they did`t have the soil or the strain I was looking for, tho they have a lot of strains, dunno about your shop ? but at mine Im sure you could find sumthing no matter if its Reg. Femi or auto`s
