Imagine I want to buy something from a real physical shop rather than online.

Is there any way of getting Google (or similar) to return details of shops in my area rather than online stores in Ontario?

I only want to buy some tan leather dye but there are loads of different 'tan' colours and it is impossible to get a real sense of the colour from the websites as the colour changes depending which screen you are looking at.

Also, why can't they use words that describe colours to describe colours?

Biscuit harmony - Custard creams? Bourbons? Harmonious with what?
Tuscan Dream - ???
Light coffee - How light? Is it just weak coffee, coffee with milk, coffee with one of those funny pictures on top?

They seem fixed with food and emotions. Why not just show a picture of the colour and give it a name that at least gives you a clue about the colour range it might be in?

My favourite description of the colour was Opulence. 5 points for the first person to guess what colour that it. It is not tan btw

Probably your best bet is to look up the manufacturers of the type of dye you're after and find out who they distribute to in your area
