Wal-Mart abruptly cancels Supercenter

[Carolann R]

I wholeheartedly agree with Scott. We don't buy "organic" usually. And we have a friend who's always telling me how healthy it is and how much better...well we can't afford it when things are so expensive, so we buy where we can get the cheapest something good. Usually at Maku'u we will ask if it's locally grown - that's important to us.

Frankly, the thing about people from the mainland and their containers, etc...that's getting OLD. We paid our dues. We pay our taxes. (If it weren't for THIS FORUM we would not be here now.) When we do suffer through a shopping trip to Wally World (yes, suffer LOL) we mainly see LOCAL dyed-in-the-wool families there enmass! They need and love WalMart 'cause it means they can have more clothes that aren't tattered, more shoes on their keikis feet, pharmaceuticals they can't normally buy in Longs, etc. You get the picture. Stop blaming it all on Mainlanders (especially if you ARE one). We didn't come here to change ANYTHING. We came here to be a part of it. It's so easy to complain...whatcha gonna do to make it better?
