When the bottom rungs on the retail ladder start breaking off, you know the economy is fucked. Family Dollar and Dollar Tree sell to the lowest end of the market and are, in most cases, the only option both inner-city and rural customers have for food and staple items. My wife and I have joked often that when we saw a Family Dollar store in the middle of friggin' nowhere, we knew we were deep in to the 'boonies'. Closing 1,000 of these store will be devastating to the most needy. Well done, Joe - here's another step in the country's decline. Keep bringin' those Mexicans in though, we're gonna need someone to help tear down all these buildings when they're shuttered...

Have to pay the fine for the rat problem at the distribution center, which continued to send questionable products to the stores, which led customers to go elsewhere.
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of you and your brothers at the miniature golf. I remember when my mother used to dress us up all “snappy” like that when we went somewhere out in public. In fact in looks like your 2 brothers have the same attire on. That’s the problem of having brothers the same size,your mom spots a good price on something and bingo!! You’re both wearing the same thing! SST
ReplyDeleteSometime in late 2023, I paid $1.99 for regular. Of course, it's up to $2.99 again. Thanks to "Old- Slow Joe."
ReplyDeleteEspecially the rural stores need to close. We can't have people living where they need personal vehicles. We need them to move into our 15 minutes cities.
ReplyDeleteI like the theory that Corn Pop and the three guys with razors came after Joe because he had tried to 'sniff' Corn's little sister.

How old is that gas price sign? Gas is now $3.00 to $3.50 on the Florida Gulf coast.
ReplyDeleteYes, sadly, the weather is somewhat warmer than it had been, but it's due to that huge Hunga-Munga-Tonga volcano that blew up a couple years ago.
