1. Lunds
I've used them both, Lunds just had a better product. I hope those people are able to get jobs. I don't think gas prices were the problem here. That was just corporate spin. It sure added to their issues but was not the main reason. I just hope those 300 people get jobs somewhere.

2. OH, CRAP!!
I've been using them for ages -- I hate grocery shopping and they've always provided good service and good stuff.

5. Could be, they are based in Marshall
Even though they have other regional stations (Zumbrota along 61 for example), they have to be hurting.
