Whoever heard of carrying Sargento reduced-fat cheddar cheese sticks but not the sandwich slices? (Publix) Why would a store carry Purdue products but not their packages of five individually wrapped chicken breasts? (Winn Dixie).

And don't ask me about pickles with no sugar added...:cus:
I know what you mean. Sweetbay had the best price on a special green tea I liked, which is much more expensive at Winn Dixie, and Publix doesn't even carry it. I'm going to try to do a better job of stocking up on staples when I see them on sale at the different stores.

When we were living in Georgia it was reported that 30% of all children on Peach Care (Medicaid) where children of WalMart employees. It is easy to have lower prices when you pay low wages.
But Wal-Mart sells more than food. If you only go to the Wal-Mart grocery side it is the same size (or smaller ) than Winn-Dixie or Publix.

Thinks apples and apples - not apple and oranges.

If he found a job that gave full retirement on 20 years, why is that a problem? I am sure a prison guard is not a great life and there are rules and regulations.

Now that I think of it, a person that defends our country for 20 years also can retire with full benefits. Do you have a problem with that?

Nope..., not feeding an army. Just started accumulating them when WD took over Sweetbay about six weeks ago. You get additional perks on certain items and from the pharmacy.
