We just learned the halacha in chumash that one should preferably do business with a jewish business if there is one. We were wondering if you had an article with the details of this halacha. E.g how much more should you pay at the jewish grocery if the non jewish supermarket is cheaper, how far do you have to travel, do you take customer service into account, etc.?
Thank you,
