I read some comments from the CEO recently that as much as 40 per cent of FDO’s customers are on some form of public assistance.
That’s because they started carrying food and accepting EBT cards.
Yep. And as long as we stay in this 0bamaconomy free-fall, they’ll be rakin’ in the cash. :)
I shop at dollar stores from time to time. Can’t beat the prices on rice and beans. And I can AFFORD top-notch rice and beans...but why spend the money? I certainly don’t want to spend more than I have to, nor do I want to put one more dime in sales tax back into my state’s bottomless-pit coffers.
(Food isn’t taxed here, but I’m thinking states that don’t tax food are mulling it over as I type...)
LOL! I shop at FDO every week - can’t pass up bargains on foods, cleaning supplies, light bulbs, and other household items. You don’t need to be on welfare to recognize good prices.
