“While on the prowl for AAA batteries yesterday while in Walmart, I chose to forego the batteries for my local Kroger grocery where batteries are NOT locked.”
No stores here lock up batteries!
Your plan has been tried. Sort of.
Remember Service Merchandise?
30 years ago, you took a pre-printed form to the checkout counter, paid for it, then they brought the actual item out of the stock room.
He sure did!!
Yup. In October, I went to Wally World to buy a Lego set for my Nephew’s Birthday only to find it behind glass. I had to get an employee to get it for me, and he had to walk me to the register. And this Walmart isn’t even located in an area with a lot of “Diversity.”
The scourge of shop lifting recently hit my neighborhood liquor store. Three black women bum rushed the store and stripped the shelves of the most expensive liquors. The owner estimated the loss at $1200. Shop lifters are caught and punished around here. I hope the cops get them.
Our 2-mile gravel driveway is a bear for big trucks to use during the winter months; I start shopping NOW and stock up on everyday things to get us through the winter so I don’t have too many deliveries after the snow flies.
We just got a Costco within 30 minutes of us, so will be stocking up there in the coming weeks as well. We’ve liked it so far and the prices are still comparable.
Nice that whatever man-made problems Socialist Democrats throw at us, there are still ways around them. Well, for NOW, anyway. Not holding out a lot of hope for the future if 2024 doesn’t turn things around. :(
Yeah. The app is called Amazon. They deliver right to your residence.
Nor where I live.
1) All cultures are NOT equal. Some cultures are distinctly inferior to other cultures.
2) Elections have consequences.
3) The welfare state has consequences.
4) Some people are incapable of self control.
5) Some people are unfit for self governance.
6) Voting should be much more difficult and much more restricted than it is.
What bothered me most, in my grocery store, was that apparently ghetto blacks use some of the same products I do.
I had to change up my soap and lotion…
I haven’t been in a Walgreens or CVS lately, but I hear they are doing the same.....................
Walmarts are doing the same in my area. I wouldn’t have such an issue with it, but it takes fifteen minutes just to get them to unlock the case, if they come at all.

I’ll bet they do in select areas of Texas...Austin, Houston ?
You must be elsewhere. Good on TX ! some common sense and integrity remains.
Notice my tagline and a distinct Texas flavor.
When I was young and traveled through central and South America, I always wondered: “why does every corner have a little shop run by a family that has a metal grate they pull down at night? where are the big supermarkets?”
Now I know
Third World Problems
I think I have a couple of those frames....
I used to shop at Service Merchandise back in the day.
They had a very customer-friendly arrangement—with enough employees to take care of any issues.
Solution is quite simple, just refuse to live where there are black people.
I live in the extremely “blue” state of Hawaii.
We have strict gun laws that only stupid people pay attention to, High taxes only stupid people pay,
and almost no black people.
We have almost zero crime.
Why is that?
Strong family, church, and neighborhood ties. Plus NO black people except for military which we all respect.
That is called old school values.
I think I have a couple of those frames....
