It’s even tough for the dollar stores, and if people can’t afford dollar store any more - how bad is it?

We all drove down wages by shopping at Walmart that the only place we can afford to shop are the dollar stores.

He didn’t reverse it either.
And a lot of it started with post-WWII public spending policies, which caused manufacturing jobs to flee the northeastern US for starters.

Those long waits to check out running 10-15 minutes in almost any store in Fayetteville North Carolina has send me packing to anywhere else to shop.

Some days it’s worth paying a regular supermarket to avoid that Wal-Mart experience: for example, earlier this week standing in a stale-fart nimbus, asking a fat-a** if she would mind stepping to one side to ponder her choices, allowing the rest of us to use her aisle.

Economic prosperity is a two step game. Play it one step and it is all down hill ad we have seen.
The free market depends on the circulation of money. Walmart is not good for that unless you live in China. Have you noticed all the factories there that used to be here?

Its the same at Wal-Marts everywhere. Been to some in 5 different states and all are the same. I now go there maybe three times a year.

I am New England, and the stores up here were not even making the +2/+3% this year already. In fact, A few have been registering year-over-year -1 or -2% declines.
Yet the company has still been assigning them a plan of 2% growth.

Please explain how my spending 20% more on batteries will get us out of the mess we’re in.

You just can’t be in Wal-Mart after 10:00 am; going early makes it a whole different experience.
