Thanks! I bookmarked the...That's a great article. Thanks! I bookmarked the shoppers' websites. <br /><br />We don't have a lot of chain stores where I live, and the only grocery stores are Safeway and Albertson's (the small privately-owned groceries were put out of business years ago.) We don't have Trader Joe's (which I love) here, so... Guess those are excuses for me to eat less food and lose some weight, eh.<br /><br />As for books, when I order online I buy about half from Amazon and half from B&N. <br /><br />About five times a year we drive a couple of hours to Kennewick, WA to shop there. We always go to the B&N store and spend freely. When we were in Kennewick last week we got a membership at their Costco, so we can start buying things in bulk that we would ordinarily be tempted to buy at our local Wal-Mart. Kennewick has a Red Lobster and an Outback, and I doubt we'll stop eating at those places altogether... but suddenly Arby's is sounding pretty good.Snavehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13763424943041003098noreply@blogger.com
