If I go to a mom and pop grocery and they are busy or short on baggers I'll bag my own. If I go to Jrogers or some other union store I don't care how busy they are or how backed up the lane gets I don't touch the groceries.

No, but then again I am sane. LOL! I would think War and Peace would be best. It's slower and heavier but when you connect...splat!

Hey, did you watch their comercials for the last election. That was some good stuff. I actually haven't checked their website since, but yes I am a pinko liberal. I voted for Bush the first time, but he drove me to the other side.

Anyway, Wal-mart sucks!

I'm just amazed that an organization that was made to "move on" passed Klinton's lying under oath chooses to stay so stuck on the misgivings of repulicans. The only thing more amazing than that is that there are sheep out there that still join and support them. LOL!

Sheep? Remeber who are blind being herded by Jesus. I think we call them Bushies.

Clinton got a BJ. Bush invaded Iraq, slept with the oil indusry, and is working damn hard to rewrite enviromental policy. Chency and Bush didn't lie under oath because they refused to take it.

We will move on from W once he is out of office and the positions he filled are vacated. Just as we moved on from Nixon, Reagan, Bush Senior and Clinton.

Might I add, Wal-Mart sucks.

If you stop shopping at WalMart in small towns in the South, you just won't be able to buy anything.

“Sheep? Remeber who are blind being herded by Jesus. I think we call them Bushies."

I follow niether Jesus nor Bush. I voted for him to keep Kerry out of office. He is a putz and a disapointing liberal in conservative's clothes but he's still better than Kerry who is an even bigger liar.

Um, that was a comment about British healthcare. I would say calling him a "Silly Libbie" is a personal insult.

""Most importantly, I cannot bear to shop in a store where the reek of the other customers is so overbearing. What is it with Wal-Mart shoppers? Have you noticed the mayhem of the parking lot? Have you seen how people just pick stuff off the shelves just to discard it a few isles later? It such a stinky nasty place. - mjc"

Hello, Wallmart will be replaced, just like all retail Department Stores (Ames Monkey Wards Joys Barkers Kings etc)

But Will it be another store or will it be the last store before INTERNET SHOPPING becomes the only place to buy anything!


...and what comes after internet shopping has run its economic course....?

When i used to frame houses I would stop by the grocery store on my way home for foodstuffs. I'm sure I appeared to everyone else as a stinky nasty person.

My first job was in biologic supply. We would get 1000's of fresh dogfish in to process. I would ride the boss home after work and boy did I stink. Fortunately for me, it reminded me of anchovies.......................................Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

stinky and nasty is when you walk into a Pizza Hut on a Sunday afternoon after church lets out because you reek after hiking/bush whacking in the rain for 2 days...ask Bitpusher about the woman who damn near fainted when he passed by her to sit down.

Never saw a Pizza Hut empty out so fast in my life...lol

I appreciated Y2's link to a list of the best retailers to work for.

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned Wal-Marts defense of China when US manufacturers have tried to fight their unfair trading practices, including dumping. Lot's of small American businesses are getting squashed.

Actually, I find myself feeling very silly myself, over the thread subject. Like it's so important for upper class twits to boycot Wal-Mart.

You don't like Wal-Mart, stay out of it.

As for me, one of the great unwashed, I will continue saving big bucks.
