Saying Hello to my old Friend Walmart

A couple years ago I decided to Boycott Wal-Mart, I felt that supporting the big box stores was putting the local mom and pops stores out of business. Today I admit I cannot afford to shop at the grocery down the street, the recession has made me stop quenching everytime I walk into Wally world. I always said the minute I graduate college I would never shop at Wal-Mart again. It goes without saying never say never, and unfortunately many can argue that we can retain ourselves from the big yellow happy face and that wonderful rollback sign, but I cannot resist shopping at Wal-Mart I’ve done the math and it really does have some of the lowest prices. Though I hate the idea I’m going against my values for good old farmers markets and mom and pops, I have to admit to you s I have un-boycotted Wal-Mart. If only there was a Trader Joe by my house, they are actually pretty fairly priced and have all that California goodness.

 

On a much happier subject matter, this years black Friday will be one of the best in 20 years, the New York Times and Forbes stated this week that stores will practically be giving away things, and the one store that will set the bar for others to follow is……come on take a wild guess, nothing less than are newly accepted friend WALMART.
