It is a pity when monster retail comglomerates drive small independent traders out of business. We are all the poorer for it. I agree best not to encourage them.<br /><br />Catchy/Matthew - I'd never heard of People of Wal-Mart until yesterday! They had no UK presence at all until not very long ago when they bought supermarket chain ASDA (which started as a retail outlet for a group of Yorkshire farmers, I think).<br /><br />I've only bought anything in a Wal-Mart once in my life. A pack of sports socks in one of their Toronto outlets to be exact. in fairness, they lasted a helluva time...white rabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15693920049571164318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046172520958527381.post-91008944097704072282010-01-21T22:32:17.611+00:002010-01-21T22:32:17.611+00:00Hi Andrew,

I have seen it before, and there are definitely some memorable characters displayed. There happens to be a Wal-Mart just a few miles from where I live, and I go there on rare occasion, primarily because of its variety and low prices. It is definitely not one of the finer venues, but I've never personally seen the bizarre sort of people there like those displayed on the web site.Meatbehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02976111435346246886noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046172520958527381.post-50877256695258265042010-01-21T20:29:33.456+00:002010-01-21T20:29:33.456+00:00The U.S.A. has given tax preferences to married co...The U.S.A. has given tax preferences to married couples for years and it has had no effect on the marriage and divorce rates. The US tax system also gives bonus refunds to single mothers with children, but that HAS had an effect on increasing the number of single parent households.<br /><br />I've been a fan of People of Walmart for a long time. I never shop at Walmart in real life for political reasons. In the US, Walmart has identified locations for their stores, then convinced local governments to use eminent domain procedures for the benefit of Walmart, forcing many small business owners to sell and relocate. This is not what eminent was designed to do.Catch Her in the Wryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13052541966405145087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5046172520958527381.post-91595415794054419002010-01-21T18:56:34.608+00:002010-01-21T18:56:34.608+00:00Your Saintliness - I think they'd have to or i...Your Saintliness - I think they'd have to or it would be a blatant case of discrimination - which would be very bad for the supposedly detoxified brand.
