What do you do when there are no local mom-and-pop stores around you, ones that carry what you need (basic Ts, Levi jeans, sheets, towels, aspirin and cough syrup)? I love to support locally owned, small business people. But around here, we have Walmart, Target, Kohl’s, Macy’s. We have Rite Aid and Walgreens. We have small local grocers that specialize in good cuts of meat or fresh produce. I rarely have the time to go to a half dozen stores to get what we need for the week. And there isn’t one locally owned clothing store around here anymore. Everything is a big chain. I miss the little stores.

Honestly, I can’t answer you question, but you know what you can do. Oh and a little tidbit... all the rumors about Target being French, being gay, etc. were started by WalMart.

Target is an American based company and has been for decades.
