Regular unleaded here is $4.39 right the now. I live in the highest
County for gas in WA State. I would say in all the states but I can't
remember if that is true.

The Wal-mart watch, yes... started by Union and higher retail stores
to blackball them out no doubt.
Disgruntled employees who were fired or expected these jobs to give
them what only a college educated career would?

Question: Have you  (not just you but you as in all of us) actually
compared Wal-Mart to other chains? Do you know how many times "Riteaid
(Payless Drugstores) has been cited for over pricing their customers?
Meaning offering sale prices and "forgetting" to change the barcode
through computers? Even just labeling full price only to have barcodes
be gosh, a bit high yet, not quite so high that it is noticed?

 I have received the wrong medicine at mom and pop pharmacies and even
larger better quality) chains? Paid more for them even so they could
poison me or my kids..

It is the consumers choice to buy there or not, yet "cheap" is better
then holes in shoes or ripped underwear. Especially for scholl age
kids who will be picked on in school.

Bellingham is raspberry haven for the country. We have many, many
lower income families. Our school system here in the County is running
a Highschool that is a hundred years old almost and falling apart
under the kids feet. Yet levies do not pass because people cannot
afford to pass them.

Before we all say how we choose quality over walking into the likes of
Wal-mart..maybe we can take a moment to put ourselves in the shoes of
the very low income. The ones that would have nothing without Wal-mart
and be on the system taking from our pocketbooks. Cheap products to
many of us..is self esteem and providing for your family or even just
yourself if you are not "breeders" for others.

Please people, also never grace my road when my fruit is harvested and
you have lost your jobs or cannot afford to get there in
trans****tation. It is not the best quality fruit. I get no medical
benefits, my hours are ****. I am a greeter with no pay and my boss is
a ***** witch with ravens that will peck your eyes out. The prices are
low. None to 20 cents a pound to save and buy another fruit tree to
plant. My kids help me pick. For no pay. I suck..let us make an
Ainewatch....
