Karma is a removed!
Walmart employs members of the community. They bear some of the responsibility for why our community is so prosperous.
If local stores care so much about the community, they can offer us better prices than the chains. Otherwise they're just using "buy local" as an excuse to rip people off and enrich themselves.
Edit: It's sad how clueless you people are, but it reinforces why I don't take the vast majority of you people seriously.
Keep paying more while thinking you're somehow getting a better deal.
It’s not too late to turn it around.
Unfortunately, it is. It's nice to think that everybody can do their part to bring back the locally-owned places and sense of community, but you're not going to convince people living paycheck-to-paycheck who are going to always make a beeline for the cheapest prices. The only time a Wal-mart dies is when the town builds a bigger, new Wal-mart or the town itself dies altogether.

Still not enough. As someone who frequently shopped at Target, I doubt I'll ever go back.
