I try to dissuade
aishlynn from getting our groceries at their outlet, up to and including to refusing to join in the grocery-getting if that's the destination.
I gladly pay a little more to shop anywhere else, for all the reasons above, as well as the fact that they have, without fail, some of the worst customer service I've ever seen - the last time I ended up there, I watched the cashier overlook the theft of everything on the bottom of the cart by the horde in front of us... who also left a package of meat on top of the candy rack.
Thanks tomuch_ado for the link...
A few more reasons to hate Wal Mart.
They didn't mention that Wal Mart employs and trains HR to help their employees get on public assistance, that they change students schedules every three weeks regularly to force them to either leave school or get fired, that they have been held liable for millions in damages for discrimination and sexism in hiring and promotions.
They are the prototypical evil company, and if you give them your money you are supporting everything that is wrong in America.
Before you say "I'm poor, I can't afford to shop anywhere else." Let me tell you how much bullshit that is. No one who is poor has internet, no one who is poor has a computer, no one who is poor drives a car with insurance. If you do any of these things, you are not poor. Your dollars have a political voice, use it.
Remember when I said that voting wasn't the most you could do? It is the least you can do, and you need to do more, we all do.
