Look at your posts on this thread, they are as neurotic and fearful and troubled as all get out, and all we are talking about is a national grocery store chain.

You should avoid Walmart judging from your posts, and it seems that you avoid driving by them, at least on the days that you aren’t shopping at one and hating the fact that other people choose to shop there as well.

Look at your posts and your descriptions of your grocery shopping, it is not calm and rational, and happy.

If you didn’t know, then why did you first answer incorrectly and then start attacking, to get your false information accepted?

If I hadn’t done what you were supposed to do if you wanted to answer post 6, then your false information might have fooled some people.

No they aren’t. My posts point out basic realities. The WM shopping experience is not terribly pleasant, and I attributed that to the layout of the stores, the quantity of people in the stores, and the quantity of employees manning the checkout. That’s all I said. Nothing fearful in that, nothing neurotic or troubled. Simply laying out facts, some of which WM fans have agreed with.

I do avoid WM, as I’ve told you multiple times in this thread and you continue to studiously ignore (I’m sure you’ll ignore this one too). Nope, it wasn’t WM I avoid driving by, it’s Fry’s groceries, and just one particular Fry’s, I even said the WMs don’t have that problem.

I don’t hate the fact that other people shop there. And I never gave any indication of hating them, you made that up 100% on your own. The QUANTITY of people is an issue when I get stuck going there, but that’s just because I go fast and they don’t and WM layout makes it difficult to navigate around them. I don’t hate them, I just want them out my way so I can finish my shopping and go home. It’s the same reason I only go to malls during off hours, too many people in the main hours going too slow and being too hard to get around. Nothing wrong with the people per se, I just walk faster than them and like having a bit of room to pass slow walkers.

Quote my descriptions of grocery shopping that are not calm, rational and happy. You can’t. Because they aren’t. You’re adding content from your own head. Or confusing multiple posters. Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, and not wanting to shop in a particular store is just not wanting to shop there. No political reasons, no sociological reasons, no neurotic reasons, just not my kind of store.

Your posts reflect an unhappy neurotic person, and this is your second day of sharing your feelings about a grocery store with strangers on the internet.

In the negative, naturally.

No kidding, these people need to get lives.

Check their politics, hating Walmart is just a part of the bigger picture.

Quote it. Quote me being unhappy and neurotic. Go ahead. Put your ctrl-c where your mouth is.

Second day, and you are still raging about Walmart and still explaining why you avoid driving by certain stores, and Walmart is too popular and crowded and how you “want them out of your way”, in long passionate posts.

No, you sound totally calm and happy with your life.

I’m not raging. That’s coming out of your head. Heck I’m barely even talking about WM anymore, at this point I’m just pointing out that your accusations against me are unfounded and lacking in evidence. And no it wasn’t a long or passionate post, it was 300 matter of fact words.

Any lack of calm you’re seeing is coming from you not me. Again, quote me. Exactly what passage is neurotic? Unhappy? Uncalm? Prove your assertion. Or admit all this raging neurotic unhappiness is coming from you. Because that’s the source. Don’t know if you’re unhappy or if you just really find it important for people to disagree with to be unhappy, but one way or the other all the unhappiness in this discussion is coming from between your ears.

Oh, you are in charge?

How long did it take you to answer your own question?

And yes...I am sure many people come on to Free Republic with an intent to fool people?

I bow to your superior intellect. What was I thinking, trying to answer your question based on personal experience.

Why so angry?

You jumped in to post inaccurate information to a simple question that I asked of another poster.

Who knows why, or why you keep going on about it, for whatever reason, you were misleading people, and are still angry that I corrected you.

Look to yourself, you started posting at me (and with misinformation) and have been attacking me ever since.

What is up with you?

Sorry, just seeing this now. Yes, BJ’s is similar to Sam’s Club. I think it’s superior to Sam’s and Costco. They take any credit card as well as manufacturers’ coupons. They will accept one coupon for each UPC code. That means if something is sold in a multi pack with separate UPC codes on each piece, you can use three coupons. It can really add up, for instance on Eggland’s Best eggs (which are sold by the 2 separate dozen).

Thank-you for your reply.

In regards to BJ’s, I’m glad they are coming to Maine.

There aren’t as many shopping venues here like there are in and around the big cities.

(BJ’s is spending millions of dollars to convert an old, closed Home Depot Store into a BJ’s in Bangor, Maine).
