Nothing to see here. This is not a recession. Dear leader FJB says, so it must be true.

They were the first to cancel Mike Lindell and l have refused to go in one. Walmart just did the same thing. I wrote the fool who did and did not even receive a form letter response.

Training your customers to never buy anything unless they have a 20% off coupon is probably a suboptimal retailing strategy.

Walmart doesn’t sell Mike Lindell’s products anymore?? Does ANY retail store sell them?
