Shop Local
RECEIVED Tue., Sept. 9, 2003
I don’t know anyone who actually wants to see another Wal-Mart or any other windowless building constructed in Austin. Join me and many others in Austin that patronize locally owned and operated stores. Try getting through a checkout lane at the 290 and Brodie Wal-Mart, and you’ll see why it’s easy to switch to a local store (or at least smaller). It saddens me to see downtrodden faces and looks of despair among most of the shoppers and employees. But then it’s laughable to see what people will go through for lower prices. I’d much rather pay a little more and go somewhere local.
