...when it comes to tuning your guitar. Which way (how) do you choose to tune it and may I ask why?

I bought a book when I bought my guitar and it includes a CD with some tutorials, as well as tuning sounds from a piano. I mean: the piano sound of E-B-G-D-A-E. The guy in the shop did a grace tune-over for me, but how can I be certain the guitar is in perferct pitch? The way I do it now (for now) is playing the piano note, and then strumming the string and try to listen if its ok. I also got a tuning device with the guitar, but that is to me more guidance than the ultimate solution, because the damn "light-thingy-indicator" is never actually only green.
