WinCo is the shit! LOVE that store! Employee owned and treats their employees amazingly as well as their customers. Always the better deal, and the bulk section is the best. Their meats are way cheaper than Costco is too. If they dont have it in the meat counter, they generally can order it for you. You can also order anything they have in the bulk foods section too. It’s the last real supermarket. They are also very responsive on social media (when i has Facebook i asked them questions all the time on Facebook messenger and they responded pretty quick.)
Only if you are conservative or have seen what liberal shit does to destroy good communities. We don’t want any more NY or CA asshats moving down trying to turn our home into a shot show.
Try out Butcherbox for meats. The beef is all grass fed and everything I've gotten from them was bomb. Get the bacon for life deal and recieve a pound of bacon every shipment
We have the clout to start something here. Like a crowd funded farmer market. Blue apron and the like can send food, why couldn't we? Start with canned goods, if you have a farm fresh. etc.
I go there for meat. Time to pay a little more or buy in bulk from a butcher. Also bought my last grill at a local grill shop and one that was not manufactured in Chyna
Best thing my wife and I ever did is become debt free. It gives you a level of "fuck You" that you don't understand until you get there. We just bought a car and when you're paying cash, you are in the driver's seat with negotiations. "Fuck this, I don't need it" is liberation like you never understand until you do.
Cut everything frivolous. No eating out! Pay the smallest one first, then use that payment + what you were paying extra on the next one. It's addictive, you start getting addicted to removing debt. The letter you get when your mortgage is gone is the best. I got mine laminated and keep it in storage. You can do it pede!
They're an honest dealer, but I had a check for 29k and could easily drive to another dealership. I told them I won't borrow money again, so they had to make it work, and they did.
I was about to cancel it, but then I thought long and hard, looked around and with deep thought, realized that I have canceled all memberships with these companies long ago.
Walmart and Sams is nothing but a welfare program. Something like 40% or some stupid amount of their revenue is tax dollars.
Stop shopping there. Pay a little more from local places, buy American good as much as possible. Been doing this for 10 years. Funny thing is the products I buy...socks, towels, sheets whatever I can find made in the US last a helluva lot longer so I'm actually saving money. The food is also better buying American made products with good ingredients. I feel better and it taste better.
They know their customers are mostly suburban and semi-rural, which means 50-90% conservative. Their official position is "forget we said that, it was an accidental post by someone who forgot what account they were logged in to". No professional company would announce they are firing some low level employee. I don't know what more you could ask for.
I'm not a white knight for Wal Mart. I just think people are overreacting to a simple mistake. I don't shop at Wal Mart because their check-out lines are always excessive and their products are often low-quality Chinese goods.
Because conservatives aren't emotionally triggered as easily, and take the time to gather their thoughts and make sure they're on the right account before posting. Because marketing companies are mostly located in downtown areas of big cities. Because marketing isn't a "conservative" job that produces something, unlike farming, maintenance work, or manufacturing. Because Twitter is a left-heavy platform that doesn't attract conservatives.
I stand by my opinion that it is an overreaction to boycott a company for an error Tweeting. No real harm was done by their statement, and it was removed as soon as it was noticed. A level-headed reaction to an error tweeting would be to make a meme and have a good laugh at them, just like people do when someone jumbles their words in speech.
Instead, we are so politically divided that touching politics even by mistake can result in "cancel culture" taking aim at a company. It used to be only the left who participated in cancel culture. It saddens me that we have to stoop to their tactics to get what we want, politically.
If you had said this was just the icing on the cake, and you were canceling Wal Mart because they import Chinese goods made by slave labor while driving small businesses away, that would be good justification for boycotting them. I would also like to know why it has taken you so long.
Why are you calling me a shill? I am not advocating on behalf of any company. I think you need to calm down.
You don't seem to know what cancel culture is, or you seem to be confused about events surrounding GOYA. Cancel culture is a weapon the left is notorious for using. They boycott companies for petty political reasons. When they tried to "cancel" GOYA, the right stepped up and countered their cancellation by purchasing a lot of GOYA products, often making grocery stores sell out.
I think you’re right. We don’t want to become like them. People can make their choices to boycott or not. We don’t want to not allow people or companies to be able to redeem themselves or make things right.
When legitimate apologies and rectifying measures are taken those should be applauded.
Instead of cancel culture let’s try redemption culture
That is ridiculous. These tweets do not go out on these big corporate accounts until they have been reviewed and vetted by marketing and public relations departments. You are a fool if you believe this story that some low level moron made a mistake. Fools like you are why our side never wins at anything.
The ugly truth about big companies is they are just as disorganized as small ones. The layers of bureaucracy you think would prevent such a tweet from happening fail to account for lazy people who want convenience and delegate their duties to others. Instead of a single person being responsible for all of the tweets, they give out the password to the account so others can shortcut the process and just post the tweets when approved.
I am not defending them. I am defending rational thought instead of knee-jerk reactions. As I pointed out in my other comment, WalMart is guilty of a lot more than just making a mistake with a tweet.
Some towns that is all they have. You can supplement some stuff but there is sadly bottlenecks now. Looks like we should have supported the small stores years ago
You’re exactly right. Don’t know why you’re being downvoted. Lots of towns around me are lucky to even have a dollar general or Walmart. Some of them only have gas stations and have to drive 20 minutes to a grocery store.
When I was in Oregon, if we didn’t want Walmart, Ralphs sister co, or gas station then we had to drive ~45 minutes in good weather to Trader Joe’s. Would just go every two or three weeks with small arguments at the big stores if needed. It can be done but takes time
Where else are you going to shop? All these big companies are garbage. It’s an oligopoly, they need to be taken down a few pegs; they are too protected by the government and their lobbyists.
Costco co-founder and former CEO Jim Sinegal appeared on CNBC Wednesday morning to offer a preview of his speech last night at the Democratic National Convention and explain why he supports the re-election of president Barack Obama.
Appearing live from Charlotte, N.C., host city for the DNC, Sinegal addressed what has become the central theme in this year’s election: whether American’s are better of today than when Obama took office. Parroting key Democratic messages, Sinegal noted that compared with where things were when Obama took office there has been considerable economic improvement with 29 consecutive months of private sector job growth and that the country is unequivocally better off.
The problem is - Walmart and Sam's Club are the 2 local places I can go to with no mask and they never bother me at all. So there's that. Everywhere else requires a mask.
Also you get a full refund of your membership if you cancel
Updoot this!
May Have to move to Costco 🤔
Costco is horrible. Mask Nazis.
Really? Well, shit, any bulk club stores that aren’t cunts?
Think I seen one in WI
WinCo is fucking amazing. I wish I had one where I live.
Winco in Wa State is Mask Nazi's as well. I do not shop there.
WinCo is the shit! LOVE that store! Employee owned and treats their employees amazingly as well as their customers. Always the better deal, and the bulk section is the best.

Sam’s Club hasn’t said shit to me about a mask. Already left @Costco so not going back there.
I use Sam’s and love it. Haven’t ever had a single problem with them. Helps that I’m in an ultra-red area.
@U/Sphinx3peat You could order from restaurant food distributors like Reinhart foods or Sysco. Get restaurant cases of food and toiletries.
Not sure, but not in my area...liberal run city here too. Extra brainwashed.
I have no better choice
The slovenly look on peoples faces at Costco always drove me away
No Sam's, no Costco, no Walmart, no Amazon, no Target...mom and pop shops locked down. Pretty tough to shop these days.
That is their untimate joke, the people are building their own prison.
Move to based county in based State
Only if you are conservative or have seen what liberal shit does to destroy good communities. We don’t want any more NY or CA asshats moving down trying to turn our home into a shot show.
If we run away there will soon be no where left to run to. Look at France or Germany for reference.
We must fight all our battles. We have no future unless we make it so.
Go with private companies and local when possible!
Try out Butcherbox for meats. The beef is all grass fed and everything I've gotten from them was bomb. Get the bacon for life deal and recieve a pound of bacon every shipment
They have eaten up all our local ma & pa grocery stores. All we have to shop at are mega corps... It's a pick your evil just to eat....
Farmer’s markets if you got em
We have the clout to start something here. Like a crowd funded farmer market. Blue apron and the like can send food, why couldn't we? Start with canned goods, if you have a farm fresh. etc.
The "proper avenues" one has to take to be able to legally do this is absurd, and when the system is so set against the common man, what are we to do?
I agree. I mean, worst case. Drugs get mailed on the daily. Who will notice some cucumbers?
I go there for meat. Time to pay a little more or buy in bulk from a butcher. Also bought my last grill at a local grill shop and one that was not manufactured in Chyna

I hope i get to that spot soon!

The letter you get when your mortgage is gone is the best. I got mine laminated and keep it in storage. You can do it pede!
you can get better deals if you finance, since they've got incentives for that. Then just turn around and pay it off immediately after
They told me I'd only get the incentive if I financed. I said no, they gave me the incentive and I wrote a check and left with no loan whatsoever.
Awesome, I know that doesn't always work, great to hear you stood your ground and it turned out in your favor
They're an honest dealer, but I had a check for 29k and could easily drive to another dealership. I told them I won't borrow money again, so they had to make it work, and they did.
I also identify as Amish
I have an Amish shop here! YESSSSSS!
No SS just my initials. I love the Amish shop and guess what they never wear masks seems like they are doing good.
This is underrated!

I don’t know, man. Where else can I get 32 Hawaiian rolls that get moldy before I eat three?

How come "mistakes" only happen in one direction...?
Because conservatives aren't emotionally triggered as easily, and take the time to gather their thoughts and make sure they're on the right account before posting. Because marketing companies are mostly located in downtown areas of big cities. Because marketing isn't a "conservative" job that produces something, unlike farming, maintenance work, or manufacturing. Because Twitter is a left-heavy platform that doesn't attract conservatives.
That's a long way to type that lefties are emotionally unstable?? ;)

I dunno, man. We cancelled the fuck out of KMart 25 years ago over Rosie O'Donnell and gun stuff.
Fuck this comment. Cancel culture? What about GOYA you shill?!

Fuck Walmart and duck you for defending them. The left will always take a Patsy and go on about their business.

I have a better idea. Turn the tables on them: https://thedonald.win/p/11RO2rqz1F/walmart-if-you-want-our-business/c/
Then, if they fail to donate to conservative causes, cancel. You wield power, so us it. Money talks.
What the hell were they thinking.
That Chyna Joe will guarantee them endless supplies of cheap slave-labor goods.
Costco is cuck. Don’t shop there either.
I just did too. 100 back.

Walmart reply
Yes! 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸❤️❤️❤️❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Get mad and cancel? Like the leftist cancel culture? No thanks.
Thanks for the info fren!
I like shopping at Sams. I am going to keep shopping at Sams.
Costco treats it's employees so much better. If you have one.
I stopped using anything Wal-Mart a decade ago. I can only embargo them so much!
Where else are you going to shop? All these big companies are garbage. It’s an oligopoly, they need to be taken down a few pegs; they are too protected by the government and their lobbyists.
I would cancel my membership but I don't have one.
I'll just stop shopping there (don't usually as it is because fuck them, but sometimes it's unavoidable).
Even if it really wasn't their fault, put enough pressure on them to acknowledge the fraud and support the effort.
I cant fucking stand Sams club these days. Been thinking about canceling for sometime. They never have items in stock.
CommieCo? Noooo!
Been boycotting them for some time.
Was not aware of this. Definitely going to retract and look for alternatives. Disgusted at this. Thanks brother!
To be fair, I haven't heard anything controversial about them lately, but they always struck me as progressive and Sam's as more conservative.
Walmart + and Sams membershits.
Well shit, I was considering getting a membership there too... thanks, pede! Very timely!
The problem is - Walmart and Sam's Club are the 2 local places I can go to with no mask and they never bother me at all. So there's that. Everywhere else requires a mask.
Maybe we can become the real Anti-Fascists all dress in black and cancel it with FIRE.
Costco baby woooooooo!
Walmart CEO. Let him know how you feel. 😏
.[email protected]
I did - years ago - once I learned they were one in the same corporate entity.
Every now and then I miss Sams Club but...
Sometimes in life we have 5o make tough choices...
Facts, Wally world owns Sam's Club. Don't just cancel, tell them why you're mad.
Aww if I only had one to cancel.. Alas.. I boycotted those fools years ago.
Homies Depot too
BOYCOTT WALMART!!! ( shouldn’t shop there anyway) get woke and go broke, they think they don’t care if they piss off over 80 million people. F.A.F.O.
My only regret is that I never had a membership. And I rarely shop at Walmart. They get $5 from me once every couple months if that
Walmart also owns Lowe's......so that's another one
Kirkland >> Members Mark
