BF2S Forums interesting trip to walmart

One of the few instances where patriotism wins over capitalism, good on them.

old people most likely don't buy things unless they were made in the USA.

when i worked at sears this guy refused to by any thing that wasn't made in the US. He had to see on everything before we put it on his car to make sure it said MADE IN USA. he said he doesn't trust any one making his stuff. lol the guy putting the stuff on his car was Mexican too

yeah we have a retail store and I get the occasion person coming in looking for american made


I just tell them ' Good luck "

every time I hear that line I think of this - Doc Brown (1955) and Marty are standing next to the delorean ( in the cave ) and Doc is looking at a part and he says " Heres the problem, its made in china " ... Marty leans in and says " All the good stuff's made in china "

I'm looking for unleaded toys for my nephew and nieces... lol

Took a friend to walmart today to buy some games and comp shit. For the first time in my life I actually heard people not buying stuff because it wasnt made in America.

Back in the electronics section I heard a guy bitching about a radio not being made in America and he refused to buy it. Then I was checking out and there were 2 ladies in line behind me and they were putting a bunch of stuff back. One of the ladies said " We cant buy this shit it wasnt made in the USA." Then they started to talk about the USA being outsourced and how wrong it is that union workers are having their jobs shipped overseas.

I hate people like that. Look, I really don't give a shit that you're not buying it, so don't make a big scene about it. Nobody gives a fuck that you're not buying it because it isn't made in your country.

ive bought $ a few years ago that i then sold and made a nice profit from

i have also bought beef jerky , and some hollywood moives

I have a friend who lives in Kentucky; he warned me never go to a Walmart in KY. At first, I was like "yah, yah what ever....people exaggerate"
One day I made a fateful stop. Everything was cool until I got to the check-out. There was one cashier working and her line was getting backed up while her co-worker was louging around chatting with her friends. Well the cashier got pissed cause she was doing all of the work and directed half of the customers to her co-worker. So the coworker, who was louging around, got pissed and started yelling at her and talking ghetto.
I was kinda next to get rung up from my purchase and they both started shoving each other....I was like "WOW is this really happening!"
There was no managers to stop the girls fighting, someone behind me started whooooing the girls like they do in a Jerry Springer talk show.
I started to grow impatient, then they wanted to fight outside of the Walmart.  Fuck me, all I wanted was to by batteries you dumb broads.....Scott (my friend) was right, never go to a Walmart in KY. I guess they simmered down and stop the smack talk but the next day I told Scott what happen; he laughed and told me so. That was my Walmart experince

I do it when buying food from supermarkets, when buying crisps or biscuits etc I look for stuff made by smaller Scottish companies, sometimes you find something really great and help give more local businesses a boost.

For bigger purchases I'll go for whatever's a good deal.
