28. i don't buy all of my stuff in one store. i have scoped out the best values...
i drive into town once a week. along the way there are several grocery stores. plus i buy gas.

the gas station at the end of my trip always has the cheapest prices on gas and smokes. $.10 cheaper on gas, and $15 cheaper on a carton of smokes. ($27 a carton for camels there! how can you go wrong?)

across the street the walmart has the best prices on almost all food items. and a package of "national brand" cheese at walmart is no different that a package of "national brand" cheese purchased anywhere else. it just costs a whole lot less.

produce? the store about half the way home. all produce sucks this time of year, but theirs is the best available.

meat and chicken? the little store closest to my home. good local stuff. somewhat more expensive that the factory stuff from walmart or the produce store, but well worth it.


do what you have to do, jeff.

i don't buy for political reasons. i'm trying to do the best for me and mine on what little i have. i support all sorts of businesses. but i do buy on sale and at the best price.

like that...
