Supporting local retailers is all well and good in theory, but in the town
I used to live in Wal Mart was a godsend.  The local retailers were
overpriced, had very poor selections, rolled up their sidewalks at 6
pm on weekdays, and weren't open at all on Sunday! Stores like Wal Mart
are popular for a reason, people aren't just going to them out of spite.
