Fluff and I drove by God's gift to the retail world this morning and cast an eye of dismay upon the above scenario. At - 14 Celcius and covered with ice and snow the wee pines are "frozen dead " !! Even Frosty the Snowman and poor old Saint Nick are flat on their "donkeys " along with most of the Norfolk Island flora !! W - M has lowered the price from $ 14.00 to $ 3.00 each but noone is taking the bait..... I buy my meat dead but I like my house plants alive !!
Oh my, that's the *saddest* thing I've ever seen! (smile)
ReplyDeleteYou could always use that lovely Norfolk Pine, instead?!?!
glad the reduced price didn't cause another stampede.
ReplyDelete$3!!! I have plants here I have not watered in months looking better!!! The world would be soo much better with out Wally World. Cheap crap from China. But I remember when their tv ads bragged on how their stuff was American made. Ha.
ReplyDeleteIt is sad to see them all dead. What a waste. They could have donated all of them to nursing homes or hospitals or wherever to cheer people up. Might change my opinion of them. That would be to donate them BEFORE the execution!!
That is such a shame. It would not have taken that much manpower to take them inside.
ReplyDeleteAt least you saved one!
I don't like shopping at WallyWorld but it is the only place we have in town to shop except the Dollar Store. Their quality has gone down since they first appeared on the scene.
I am sorry for you. I am lucky. We have a Target but not a super Target. I get groceries at Dillon's. A bit more expensive but much higher grade of foods. And things just taste better. Mostly I buy food at our grocery store in Lindsborg. It is large and has almost everything I like. We also have a Dollar General. I shop there when I just need milk and such. Some their things are quite good.
ReplyDeleteThat photo depicts a very sad comment on the corporate mentality. Especially at WallyWorld.
ReplyDeleteI have bought milk and a few things at Dollar General. We have one in town. I also like our big grocery store HEB, They have good quality food and although Wally World has food - I very seldom buy their groceries. The closest Target is in Corpus or Victoria.
ReplyDeleteHey Lonesome...........where do you like to shop?
