Currently watching a documentary about how walmart fucks the entire country. Already knew that I'm not an idiot. Just helps solidify my hate.

DSP, i made a good series of hardcore Walmart-hating posts somewhere with my philosophy. We sometimes didn't have a good alternative in college but I've only been back twice and regretted both times. (had to get binders to organize old papers and was happy the second time getting some going to Staples, and also got stripping gel and wish I had gone to Lowes)
Going to a real grocery, hardware, sports, pharmacy, or electronic store is 100 times better than giving up quality on some things and having to be in line with people on foodstamps adding to the unhealthy domination of many companies distribution for just a few pennies. The selection is shitty if you really want something you are looking for, and inventory is none-existent if they do carry the item. Most purchases represent a compromise on something, not actually of equal value of where you should have been shopping.

I am not a fan of Walmart and my feeling was solidified last Wednesday when I went to Costco for gas.
I had gone to Sams the day before (I have been filling up when I can daily because it feels better getting 1/4 tank) and it has been going up 2-4 cents a day here.
Tuesday I went to Sams, got premium at 4.27(grrrr) but felt like it was too high as the regular stations were the same, so Wednesday I went to Costco & paid 4.22!
Just to be sure after Costco I went to Sams to see if the price had changed and it was 4.28!
WTF?

Im sure that less people complain about going to McDonald's and getting a meal for 9 bucks thats not filling, then go fill up their tank and whine about a couple cents...
See why a few cents a day is a big deal?

2) apparently you can't see it is not four cents. It is .56 and it has not stopped going up.
At this rate it will be 6.00 by winter.
I can afford 10.00, 20.00, 100.00 why should I pay it because sheep like you just bend over & take it with nary a complaint?
