Unless you're making espresso, only blade grinders or the worst of burr
grinders will have a significantly worse quality grind compared to a
commercial grinder. My Solis Maestro makes a quite uniform grind for my
vac pot.

Considering that ground coffee stales in less than a day, you're losing
FAR more than you're gaining by grinding at the store.
