If in your area, BJ’s is an alternate to Costco. Aldi’s is great for smaller quantities. Prices mostly cheaper.

Publix is way too expensive. I only go if I see something on sale. BOGO, etc.

I’m still shopping at Kroger. If the law says you can open carry, you can open carry.

I presume you mean retailers that permit open carry?

Are you sure about that?

If a business posts signage that says "No Firearms Allowed" it's my understanding that they have that right and you can be charged with trespass, or some other misdemeanor if you are caught.

We have tons of small gun shops where I live in Kentucky. And they have great prices and selection. Frankly, it never really crossed my mind to use Wal-Mart for guns anyway.

“If the law says you can open carry, you can open carry.”
___________

Not on private property—if the business or property owner says that you can’t.

Why create a potential ruckus—get a concealed carry permit if you feel the need.

I've never been to Kroger's.

But my wife and I will still shop at Walmart. They still provide the best prices for our retired, fixed income budget.

We don't have many options out here in rural Florida. The local supermarket has far fewer selections and their prices are much higher.

Any permit/licensing requirement is a violation of the second amendment. What confuses these states about "shall not be infringed"?

What if my gun is my religion?

Turn the cake baker case around.

The store provides a public service.

a little twisted, jump off the deep end reply on your part?

I don’t shop some stores due to their support of certain things it doesn’t mean me or anyone is stopping buying products - just simply not shopping in those stores.
