Pepsi. Because they raised the prices from 1.00 to 1.25 in the teachers lounge at work! Here we are educating the future and they think we do not pay enough for a bottle of pepsi. All of us went out and bought coke products and put in our fridge. pshh

actually whitemike, it is not Pepsi who raised the prices, but the seller who is distributing the product to your place... actually, the basic price from Pepsi like Coke or any distributed beverage is fixed... the distributor is making its profit by raising it... the more you drink, the higher the price.. lol

Albertsons - Since the last strike, their quality of service has declined so much that if I want to go someplace without customer service, I might as well go to Wal-mart and save money at the same time. McDonalds - When I was in high school, I could never eat there without getting sick. Food 4 Less - Their stores are filthy. Filthy stores are not a place where I want to buy my food at. Vons / Pavilions - I don't agree with the philosophy of the CEO. Stater Bros. - See Food 4 Less I used to avoid Walmart because they don't have the best track record with their employees. However they have made a lot of changes lately that I have learned from actual employees. They are also one of the largest chains in the world that is employing green initiatives throughout their stores. Finally, they have more organic foods in the local supercenter than the Natural Foods store on the other side of town. I don't agree with their Monopsony form of business but if they get their suppliers to cut even 1/10th of their waste in the immediate future, it is good overall for the rest of us. Add to this that they are educating consumers about reusing bags, switching to CFLs and other energy efficiency models is good as well. They also plan on installing 30,000 megawatts of solar energy on their 2500 stores and distribution centers. All in all, their programs have done more for the environment in the United States than the EPA. |

Wal-Mart: Worst store ever!!! K-Mart is way better than Wal-Mart.

I haven't been to a K-Mart in 15 years... I am not even sure if the local one is still open. I know they closed two other stores in the area recently. We have 4 Wal-marts and 3 Targets though. They are talking about building a 5th Wal-mart and a 4th Target as well.

I hate Wal-Mart so much. They go from Wal-Mart to Super Wal-Mart.
As for Target, it's a good store to go shopping. Another store I avoid is Home Depot =] |
