There's the people who shop at Wal-Mart, and the people who don't. There's a lot of people in each group. Whichever one you are is your own prerogative.

Well, when I find a business worthy of my loyalty, they will have it as long as they prove themselves worthy. I don't support a business because it is local. Not good enough. They have to prove to me that they want my loyalty constantly. Yes, they start out all good but the question is whether they can keep it up or not. If they cannot maintain a sustained effort to keep me loyal, why should I be loyal to them? Why shouldn't I price shop?
Well, so far, none of the stores have shown me that they are deserving of my loyalty. Why shouldn't I shop at Wal*Mart? What has ANY of the comparative stores done for me? I shop Copps for my food because they are non-union, cleaner bathrooms and their people are more helpful SO FAR. As long as that remains the same, they will have my loyalty. So it is a 2 way street. You earn it and keep earning it and I will give it. Otherwise, you (not you personally) can go fawk yourself and I'll find the deal of the moment.
