GGG is a great aggregator. It’s a one stop shop for a wide variety of small items—for example tiny packets of mustard, different innovative backpacking foods, tiny spray bottles and the like. But it’s also got a wide variety of higher ticket items as well: e.g., Alpha Direct from several different companies in several different weights. Sometime I come to the site knowing exactly what I need and GGG has it. Other times, when browsing the “New” section, I discover things I didn’t know about that turn out to be super useful. Plus I love the articles about the different cottage manufacturers.
