Evan Pease Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 The town has managed to keep one out and I dont mind a bit. My mom and I go to one in Bristol once or twice a week at most and its only a 15 minute drive. The local places in our town will give you better deals in the long run so I try to buy most stuff there. A good example is the bass place a few miles from my house, I get 90% of my gear there and in return I get great service and a discount.

Super User fishinfiend Posted July 10, 2008 Super User Posted July 10, 2008 In my area there is a comunist-mart every 20 miles and sometimes closer, I fail to find the connection between walmart and communism. Walmart is the classic example of a capitalistic enterprise. They compete with others in a free market and by outcompeting them they maintain the majority of the market. Walmart is only as big as they are because consumers have demonstrated over and over that walmart is meeting their demands. I think your problem is not with walmart but other consumers. In the town I work, Walmart opened up last year. Before they did half the town was up in arms about how it will destroy our area. They were on the news and in local periodicals and led public demonstrations. Now whenever I go there its funny how many of the people griping about walmart shop there. ;D ;D ;D Our business has increased due to increased traffic in the area and walmart pays more than most of the little shops in the area. I LOVE WALMART.... i just wished they had thick cut chops and better steaks. This is all i have time to write, I have to go pick up some senkos at wally-world.
