If it costs 50 cents in gas to go to WalMart, and my corner food mart is being competetive, then it may be in my interest to stay in my neighborhood and avoid the aggravation of a longer drive. As things stand it isn't just food markets being impacted, it is also big chains such as Best Buy. You have to have noticed that WalMart has a toe in everyones door. I think other retailers are concerned and reacting with price drops and targetted ads. >> You may have forgotten that I am the oldest of 7 >> children > > Yahoo, for whatever reason, truncated your message > after this.

And as I've said, I shop at WalMart, so it is not like I am going to lead a campaign against them. xponent But I Am Evil<G> Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
