They are popping up everywhere here too. I think we have 8 in our county now, with the 8th one just opening. I think the days of the Mom and Pop country convenience store are coming to an end. Dollar General will be taking their place.....then you have Walmart in town.
I was wondering how widespread this building is. We are getting them in about all the smaller towns around here. I guess, they will pick off a lot of Walmart customers that have been traveling 25-30 miles with the high gas prices beeing what they are? Ken Sweet
Family Dollar and Dollar General are one of the few things that have WalMart stumped. They are also known to be good neighbors in the small towns they build in. Provides jobs and much needed sales tax revenue.
Sounds like the unions may cause Walmart some trouble this Black Friday. Ken Sweet
