12. I don't shop there because
it is distant, inconvenient, the parking lot is a mess, and I don't like the produce. I also don't shop there for the other "politically correct" reasons. Sometimes I go to my market, a dollar store, wherever I can find what I need or want. My Target sells very little in groceries.

But if that is the only place where you can find what you need at the best price, then I guess you should shop there. I think alot of stores in many areas have "followed suit" and done what Wm has done: stop paying as much in wages and benefits. WalMart has dragged down alot of rural economies with their cheapness and driven mom-and-pop stores out of business, IMO.
