But since the grocery store buy-outs, I can't afford to shop for groceries at a regular grocery store, so not only am I supporting a Walmart, I'm supporting a SUPER Walmart. I fucking HATE the Walmart -- destroying America one underpaid non-union employee, and one failed small business, at a time.
Unfortunately, for the next 8-10 months, my family's in such a position that ten cents cheaper on green onions and 25 cents less on mayo really makes a difference. I buy meat at the local carniceria, kid's clothes at the thrift store, and the whole family gets their shoes at K-Mart. We're not exactly in poverty (yet :) ), but neither are we in a position to pick and choose some things.
Food prices seem to be higher here than in Reno, too -- though when I was up there a few weeks ago, it was still pretty darned pricey.
